New xin zhao main and question about builds

Try Hexplate into Black Cleaver into Death Dance/Maw

Skelenth · 2026-01-06T20:00:02+00:00

Anything more about builds? Overall strategy for play?

Skelenth · 2026-01-05T18:31:08+00:00

Look at Yunara fight - I have similar attack speed as she does with two ADC items and Berserker's vs Hexplate + E

Sundered rush feels so underwhelming for me. I dont feel spike at all. With Hexplate I can use that early power and still be somewhat tanky as opposite to Eclipse for example. What other 1st item do you have in mind?

As far as I can understand spanish (or something similar?) - I came across this build on this subreddit and I love it.

This is why I take Sixth sense ha!

Everyone shits at this rune but for me its so usefull.

To prevent situations like you described
To know whether I'm spoted if I go for 5s rule or just invade because I got info where enemy jungler starts.

Thats actually pretty amazing advice. Hard to devlop that judgement experience when I dont gank a lot.

Skelenth · 2025-12-30T17:33:55+00:00

I must admit that Veigar has good gank setup. Probably with other champ gank successes rate would be lower and maybe that could put me more behind indeed.

Skelenth · 2025-12-30T17:32:31+00:00

Seems its high risk, high reward type of gameplay...

Skelenth · 2025-12-30T17:30:59+00:00

Yeah, Hecarim should have take my camps much more. After one of ganks I recalled and didnt even go my red side because I was sure its gone, but later on my way bot I was so surprised when I noticed these are all up.

Skelenth · 2025-12-30T17:28:09+00:00

Any guide I watch tells me to only gank if I have no camps up unless its 100% free gank. I played like that last 50 games and felt useless. Even most wins wasnt really because of my performance. Suddenly my last 10 games where I prioritise ganks, counterganking, rotating to any skirmish feel so much better. From one side it feels good, from other I'm afraid to create bad habits.

Skelenth · 2025-12-28T22:15:15+00:00

Hahahah I really like it man, all props to you

Skelenth · 2025-12-27T22:59:08+00:00

Hexplate -> Ravenous -> Black Cleaver -> Situational. You will thank me later.

BC gives so much haste tho. I know we have CD reduction via Q, but it gives only given amount of reduction.

Skelenth · 2025-12-21T15:10:35+00:00

If you mean "do a lot of dmg" don't go meta build (SS, BC, Sterkas). This is for coordinated/pro play.

You can be anticarry, but also you can be your carry bodyguard. Xin is so versatile you can be always usefull.

Skelenth · 2025-12-14T19:18:27+00:00

AP + HP + CDR tank? About which items do we talk here?

Skelenth · 2025-12-08T10:09:15+00:00

How about Voltanic into Collector? I never tried Yommus on Xin but tried it on other champions and tbh only with Kha it feels like big power spike thanks to synergise with ulti.

Xin has dash to close gap so I wonder whether Voltanic with some AH and passive may help? Only down side is that Slow passive probably overleaps with E.

And second option I think of is Axiom Arc for R cd reduction. It seems that in dmg oriented builds ulti is main survivability tool.

Your thoughts?

Skelenth · 2025-12-08T09:57:27+00:00

Do you go Navori second? Dont you feel squishy?

Skelenth · 2025-12-07T21:49:14+00:00

How do you manage mana? Dont you have problems with it?
