ak521 says “Dashes in on your adc, ults, you're already away from your carry. So you bandage toss back in, you ulti. Still tough because his E is undodgeable, forcing your ADC to flash away or die. His dueling power is pretty good, too, so care of that.”

KamiKZ says “This match up is slightly xin favored, though you can win as Graves into Xin Zhao. You can win against xin zhao early 1v1 by kiting him with your E and fleet footwork movementspeed. The only problem is that you can´t execute Xin Zhao with your ulti since Xin can just ulti and block all of your damage so you need to ulti Xin Zhao in melee range to guarantee your ulti to damage him ”

Polarshift says “Careful for his early game. If you play it right, by playing around his E slow, third Q knockup and by putting your smokescreen to good use, you have a chance to win the duel. The safer route of winning this matchup is by just outscaling him. You are better at clearing camps so you definitely want to get ahead of him by farming up and invading properly. Do not let him get ahead by ganking, be prepared to countergank.”

Hidon1 says “Xin Zhao is the type of jungler who can gank level 2 and you will have a hard time fighting him 1v1. What you should do to prevent this is by warding for the level 2 gank (do it on the ramp, which is besides raptors and tell your top/bot laners to ward as well). If his level 2 gank is not successful you are a stronger champ at level 3. You can also try to countergank but that is flippy. When you play vs Xin Zhao make sure to always fight even numbers since you do not thrive well 1v1, but with your teammates around you, you should always win the fights. In this match up Red smite is good since it can help you if you get caught out 1v1 by Xin. ”

Veralion says “Very, very dangerous. If he manages to knock you up there's a good chance you're dead before you land. A semi-fed Hail of Blades Xin can engage you at 10% life while you're at full and still win if you have no ult. Give him a wide berth and think very carefully before committing to an early game skirmish. Just ulting at him is probably not worth it since he can immediately disengage you. If he has a bad start and looks killable, hold your E and chase after him with your W until his R expires. ”

He also deal a broken amount of damage, but you can kill him early if you kite him. Your best bet is to engage on him, and jump a wall after he jumped on you and avoid his 3rd auto which knocks you up and then he's an easy kill but it can really backfire.

Both xin and Camille will start red and immediately gank mid,bot or top depending on which side they are on. You need to play around this and AGGRESSIVELY counter jungle any chance you get. keep him at spears length until you whittle him down for the kill. (early game flashes should be used if he catches you w/ his gap closer.. it will force his flash and you can use your pounce to keep him at range)”

The Real Fake says “Absolute monster early game, you can never fight him early until you have items and if you have ignite and/or red smite available. However Xin is relatively easy to counter gank as he loses a lot of power when his abilities are down. If you stay relatively even against Xin you well evetually outscale/be more useful as you can serve as an offtank/engage. As the game progresses, mistakes will be punished more harshly, and Xin lacks proper escape so you and you team can punish him for it. Phase Rush helps a lot as you can run away easier.”

[Korean Lee Sin] MID/JG/TOP by exezidiot | Diamond Lee Sin Player

urrb says “He has a very strong early game and a strong level 2 gank. Many times people won't respect this and the threat of this champ lies in him getting an early lead like that and snowballing off of it. Just do your best to warn your team, watch where he's been leashed and ping it, reach 3 as quickly as possible, and stay on alert for where he is and what lane he could gank so you can be ready to counter it. If you can help your team survive his early game he's much easier to deal with mid to late. In terms of a 1v1 he will generally win early game unless you can cheese him in the river with absolute focus and riverwalking or at his buff before he gets a lead. Mid to late game if he hasn't gotten a lead you should be able to win the 1v1. Try to sidestep the line of his w and kite him after his second auto until his q is over so that he doesn't knock you up. Don't engage with e if you can avoid it so that after you've kited him you can E onto him, because he will run.”

Simphoria says “Unlike Olaf, Xin is much more balanced but he is a big counter. Sej is a champ that has a weak early but strong late and Xin is the opposite of that. He bumps out consistent damage so our passive doesn't really negate as much like Vs Assassins. He has a knockup, he can follow our Q with his E, (be careful that he may ward over a wall if you dash into fog) and he has a slow. There is never a time we can out duel him. He can out gank and counter gank us easily. He is usually very healthy when he clears and he will have no problem walking into your jungle looking for either camps or you. You basically play the first 15min in fear and try to safely gank and scale. ”

Lasoor says “[General] His goal is getting his third auto off on you to knock you up. Once he does this you will die(in most cases). The ideal situation is when Xin Zhao has exhausted his E(gap closer). Once he uses this, simply walk away until his knockup ability times out. Then go back in and burst him to a pulp. Generally safest to use your ultimate against him as you are at half strength without minions. Xin Zhao can easily kill ghouls all at once while focusing you using his ultimate. So hug your maiden and make use of your outplay abilities.”

LePlay says “He can be quite annoying with both his Q knock-up and his W slow. However, he relies on his E dash to effectively fight you; block it with your W and proceed to stun him with your E-Q combo”

drunken hunter says “Xin Zhao is a really strong enemy laner because of his abilities. He can dash to you, he uses his (W) to do crit and life steal on every third hit (what is completely broken) he can knock you up and he reduces your armor (15%) the first three seconds he fights you. Better play safe, get the ninja tabis and wait for a gank.”

PenguinOnStick says “Based on AA and its easy for you to stay inside the ult. Wait for his Ult before you E since he will knock you away. He will be hard for you to deal with late game since he is so strong right now. ”

MaRtOOOOOOOOOOO says “He will play very aggressive and will probably try invading you because he beats you in every 1v1 due to the hail of blaids changes. He will probably try lvl 2 ganking top or mid and 2 crabing you (Dont try counter ganking his lvl 2 gank just type to ur laners that he might try this). Its realy hard to play against him if hi is with hail of blades, I suggest just banning him like i do.”

Loul_60 says “Xin Zhao is relatively similar to Udyr in the sense that he has strong (especially early) 1v1 potential, Xin also has pretty good clear. If he invades/counter jungles you well, prepare for a tough game, but unless he is very fed, he lacks the late game power compared to Kayn.”
