Scuttle Contest
- You lose scuttle fights at level 3 as your Q cooldown is too long and you lack sustained combat tools against Xin's E-Q combo.
- From level 6, you only win 1v1s if you can Q dodge his E engage or if you catch him with low health after he's used abilities on camps.
Predicted Jungle Path
- Xin Zhao typically starts bot side and looks for early skirmishes, often pathing towards top scuttle around 3:15.
- He may attempt early invades on your second buff or look to contest scuttle crab aggressively.
Invade or Not
- You should not invade early as Xin wins most 1v1 scenarios before level 6 and has better gap closing tools.
- Focus on efficient farming and only look for invades post-6 when you can R away from bad situations or when you know his location elsewhere.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't fight Xin in open areas where he can easily land E, and avoid using Q on jungle monsters when you suspect he's nearby.
- Never commit to extended trades early game as his sustained damage with Q resets will outdamage your basic attacks.
