Great!

Wow! This guide is very useful! Keep up the good work.

Hello, could you organize this Arsenal a bit better for Xin Zhao? Would be nice

The first build in the guide is always made to fit the meta and the runes present. The rest are situational and show meta builds that existed at some point in the years and that might cone back at some point in the future, if you are not sure about what to get or how ti mix and match then I suggest the first build that i list.

How can i upload this all builds in LOL, help me pls!

Hey, thank you very much for the awesome guide. has always been the champion I have the highest win rate on in the jungle, and the most fun for me to play. I wanted to see if I am going with the most optimal build and paths and your guide has helped me ! (turns out I was doing pretty good :) ) Thank you for the valuable information, it will be put to good use by many !

im sorry u quit the game =(

In other people's playstyles, they allocate less time to farming and more time to ganking. This is probably the reason why they go phase rush and max e second. Maxing e allows for a faster knockup and phase rush makes catching people during ganking easier and is better for guaranteeing the success of a gank.

I think it depends on your own playstyle. If you are more the gank player you take Phase Rush, but if you like to farm more rather than ganking the lanes then you would go PTA.

I highly doupt it, i started LoL back then i was at junior highschool and i had nothing better to do and plenty of time, now my time starts to get more and more limited and and the little time i have left to play games i prefer to spend it on something more worthwhile honestly...

Thanks :D, i will try to at least updated the guide every now and then whenever it's truly needed since i know a lot of people use it regularly and it would be a shame for the guide to be phased out if it's needed.

We would be happy if you keep this awesome in-depth guide updated :)

Wow that's a lot of item combos. Any suggestions for someone new to Xin?

(13) |

Try the builds on the top of the first page of the guide, those are the ones that get regularly updated, aka, first 1-2 builds.

I Love Xin, but why cant he have more ranged attacks for harassing.

He would be too op

If you want an all around great item that benefits Xin Zhao and the rest of the build i basically you winging it based on the game then Trinity is the way to go. If they have a lot of tanks, or you have a build that calls for Black Cleaver specifically, or you need some more health overall for a tankier build, then go for the Cleaver. thanks for your support :)

Can you recommended me the build that can carry low elo team or maybe a tip to get out elo hell,cause i already use your Full build standard combo but it doesnt feel good to me

I list dozens builds that i have played over the years in the guide, you dont have to stick to one, for example i usually use the first build that i list on the guide which i change when i also change build because thats what feels better for me, i give notes for each build and its uses, try the build that i list as "early-midgame domination" or something that you feel fits your playstyle.

Which one do you feel better? Early mid game build with pta or Early mid game build with phase rush

(13) |

In the past Phase rush was almost always the worst choice and it seemed pretty underpowered but right now after the buffs on Stormrazor there is almost 0 reason to go for a Trinity Force as a second item so the playstyle changes rapidly, you can rush Stormrazor and then play a back and forth strategious engage with the help of Phase Rush in order to maximaze the Strmrazor damage and preserve health, so it can be the better choice if you rush Stormrazor and play more strategically instead of going all-in, if you do go all in or you get Trinity then i suggest PTA.

What do you think about lethal tempo with xin? is it good combination with stormrazor?

(13) |

Unfortunatly not, Lethal Tempo requires a high basic attack DPS which come from builds that involve Bloodrazor, BotRK and Rageblade and even then PTA outperfoms it in most situations. Stormrazor is a very oportunistic and thus can't dive into battle and deal constant DPS without dying, that's why Phase Rush works now on Xin. I think Lethal Tempo will need a massive meta shift for it to be used on Xin effectively.

I wanted to thank you first for this awsomne quide :D continue our hero
I 'm B4 and i main xin zaho 220k m7 i do well with all the gameplay but i don't know what to build in all the situations i use one build for all my games and that didn' work for me that's why i still bronze iwanted you to help me discovering situations that i should buy this item or this one or you give me a combo build for all games ! for the runes and masteries I HAVE 56 percent win rate on him in 139 games i think that's good but i still want your help in this situation cause i want to get out of this elo :'(

Honestly, Xin Zhao is of the champions that doesn't require a great deal of changes, there are some games in which you can be more tanky and others more DPS oriented but overall you can manage even with 1 build, recently i am Diamond 3 and i use mostly "FULL BUILD STANDARD COMBO 2" to test it and some times "FULL BUILD STANDARD COMBO 3" and they work pretty well. The basic thing that someone should improve in divisions in Bronze/Silver/Gold/Plat Etc. is his playstyle and his mechanics or decision making, i think the more you improve yourself as a player the easier it will become to win. I once played some games from a friend's account in Bronze to see how it is like and i think i won all of them with around 16/0 20/1 scores and such, 1 even as support Xin Zhao i ended up with 24 kills. Try to watch streams and improve your overall Jungle gameplay and it should be a piece of cake to reach Diamond 5.
