Who Wins

  • You win pre-6 through superior range and poke, but must respect Xin's level 2 all-in potential when he gets W-E combo.
  • Post-6 you maintain advantage if you land Q, but his R can disrupt your burst and create kill pressure if you're caught without flash.

How to Trade

  • Poke with E from max range while maintaining distance, then look for Q-E-auto combos when he's slowed or engaged on minions.
  • Never trade in melee range as his sustained damage and healing from W will always win extended fights.

Wave Control

  • Push early levels to establish range advantage and prevent his roaming, but transition to freezing near your tower once he hits level 3-4.
  • This forces him to overextend for CS while keeping you safe from his gap-closing potential.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't use Q aggressively for poke as it's your only escape tool against his E-Flash combos.
  • Missing Q when he's in kill range almost guarantees death since you have no other way to create distance from his gap closers.
