Early game
it's time to bring him into the Wild Rift summoner. let's start the early game power spike.
Early game is the heaven for Xin due how strong his early game power spike. use this time to make your team has good early game. remember, getting good early game make your game easier and giving you more chance to win the game. Xin demands you to play aggressive or even to counter jungle your opponent. so if you able to close out early game, and your team will snowball, HARD.
Start from Red buff as the damage buff is INSANE!
Now you have 3 choices here.
- Continue your jungle pathing, finish blue buff and fight for scuttler....
Safest choice. - Try to gank the mid lane incase over push / over commit
Look for any ward first, if you want to gank, if get caught in 4k, your enemy mid lane just, escape. - Try to counter jungle, and miss fortuna bless you, you caught their jungler is on low health for you to execute or trade [flash]
Try to hit the Wind Becomes Lightning the farthest point as the one you will get the challenged debuff is the farthest one. remember, your Wind Becomes Lightning and Audacious Charge are work best with champion that get your challenged debuff.
Mid game + late game
Xin Zhao mid game and late game will be same as early game but not shining as early game. you will transforming from fighter diver to tank diver due the build you sometime build on Xin Zhao will be more bulky. keep doing what you do early game and you will be good.
this is where you will make a lot of high-impact decision, especially they getting more grouped up in mid game. what is the difference newbie and mastery 7 Xin Zhao mains are when to jumpscare the hell of your opponent as Xin is perfect to make your opponent scattered, and able to isolate one target that able to determine the fight. Remember, your job is isolate and scatter the weak. (did you see that? get the scatter the weak? nevermind.)
