Reason for Executioner's over Bloodthirster is to give you the Ignite effect w/o having to acutally take it, and Frozen over Randuin's is simply cause the Aura, if they don't hit you when your wearing Randuin's then no proc, or you just use it, not going for Sunfire, cause your off tanking not tanking, in my opinion, Sunfire should be on the tank who will be trying to stay right in the middle of the team fight, as its good, I think I would go with Frozen cause you get health with those 2 items you mentioned, but the aura is just great seeing as your charging right onto the Ranged Carry and dropping them, that is your Main Focus as Xin and this is how you win games.

Not saying your picks are bad, just not my playstyle. I've personally tried them, but to be honest, they didn't help. Randuin's did in a few games where they had runners, but if they were running it didn't matter cause my support should have a Shurelya's, so pop it and go in, plus by the time most teams will start running your charge is back up.

This supposed to be an off-tank build? Why Executioner's Calling and not Bloodthirster? An why Frozen Heart and not Randuin's Omen or Sunfire Aegis? They give health too.

This one works. Sure I did mix some items up and take they in different order, but still, this is the base of this.
Thanks, indeed the first succeeded Xin build I've found.

Sooooo...yeah, been doing a ton more testing in hopes of forming builds for Solo top and Fully Jungle to...well...not suck mid game if your team if failing hard.

Will be once again changing things up here in a bit, though it may be after I get my new comp with my tax returns...

Overall I'll spill a bit for his overall success with the current meta in mid ranged elo, don't finish full Items, only build parts for what you want to build into. I.E. Phage, Heart of Gold, B.F. Sword, Nega, are really good to start off with, ofcoarse finish boots after Lantern but you get the point.

After reading this guide I had to buy Xin!! Great guide & all the details really make your guide awesome to read. Keep up the good work. +1

Bout to cut in to this thing...actually with the new masteries Xin is soooOoooO much stronger as a Jungler, the Jungle build is pretty much all i'm gonna leave in here, oh and they Hybrid build cause its still 5v1 win...Though with all the new stuff I've been testing with the new masteries the builds are pretty much gonna be cut into Cookies >.< but still adjustable

Thanks for all the feed back, and I'll get to the changes soon, actually gonna start on them right now.

When will be changed to the new build? because it is a new talent tree

Great guide :D +1

Ive tried SOOO many Xin guides, this one is the best. Really the best, i get like 20/3 17/1 all the time with this build. No other can compare to this one!

Thanks all that have tried out the builds...I havn't been playing cause I got a new job and when I can get back into testing stuffs out I'll add a section for Dominion builds...should be interesting when I get the chance.

+1...I may not like all the builds as I main Xin myself but I can tell you atleast know what your talking about. Your Off-Tank build is quite close to mine however I build Berserkers, Trinity, Randuins, Black Cleaver, Banshees, Situational(more damage or more defense). Oh right I sell Berserkers late game sometimes for Mercs.

My runes go 6 AS reds 3 ArPen reds, 9 flat Armor yellows, 9 flat MR blues, 3 Deso Quints.

I use a 9/21/0 build nearly every game getting the +4% increases AS in each tree allowing me to get near your AS bonus from runes with less AS runes and more survivability.

AC at lvl 1, getting TTS at lvl 2, and then BC at lvl 3 is how I go for the first 3 lvls ingame, after that its all TTS then BC, maxing AC last.

Ignite+Exhaust is good but I prefer Ignite+Flash or Exhaust+Flash for Flash+Crescent Sweep kills when they try to flash away.

(Last paragraph I promise)You say that you use your Off-Tank build to feed your carrys, I use it to feed myself. A carry is dangerous when fed but most of the time fairly squishy. A fed offtank Xin is dangerous and hard to kill, allowing you to charge in and kill AFTER your main tank initiates while your AP carry nukes them.

Well I think thats it, thank you for reading this wall of text lol.
