Tbh, Yi is easy to shut down in the jungle.
If you have a competent jungler, he can kill him once at lvl 2, then again at lvl 3, then again at lvl 4. And then whenever he sees him.
Haven't tried the new
Feral Flare yet.
Not sure about it though.
Building a full-on dmg Xin might be fun, but the moment he's stunned or slowed, he dies.

^Feral flare OP. The fact the item has an onhit heal that scales up to 20-30 health every game means you heal stupid amounts, especially on SV Xin.
He needs to hit something to heal.
He can easily be kited.
Even with his gap closer and slow.
As I said, haven't tried it.
Have tried items like BotRK, which offer similar stats, AD, AS, heal. And they only work a bit later in the game. When you've got some tanky stats.
Will prolly try it soon, but I'd have to change several items in my build to compensate for other stats lost.
Tried
Feral Flare and I'm not impressed.
It takes away one of the biggest jungle changes this season, mana sustain.
I'm always mana starved.
The moment blue buff runs out, I'm out of mana.
It lacks sustain in general.
I only got it to ~20 stacks, seeing that it takes over 15 mins to actually get the first 25 stacks that don't do jack really.
And that was almost an entire game just farming the jungle.
Ganking and counterjungling, killing peeps or just forcing behavior changes due to your presence, that puts you easily over 20 mins before you get the initial 25 stacks.
That's a little too late for a jungler to start stacking his items.
By that time I'm between 200G and 2000G from completing TriForce. Add a kill or 3, some assists and I'm already starting on Randuins.
Only done 2 games so far, maybe I need some more, try out some more builds, but so far I'm not impressed.
Not on
Xin Zhao anyways.
It might work for farm heavy junglers, but not for me.

IMO junglers like
I ban Yi every game now. Xin is much easier in terms of counterplay.
