Scuttle Contest
- You lose most scuttle fights at level 3 unless Xin Zhao is very low on health or you can kite with your W stun into Q mobility.
- From level 6, you only win 1v1s if you can possess a nearby unit immediately after he uses his ultimate, or if you're significantly ahead in items.
Predicted Jungle Path
- Xin Zhao typically starts bot side with leash into full clear, looking to contest scuttle at level 4 or gank top lane after his clear.
- He often invades your jungle around 4-5 minutes when he completes his first clear and has level advantage.
Invade or Not
- You should not invade Xin Zhao early game as he wins most 1v1 encounters before your first item completion.
- Focus on counter-ganking or invading only when you see him commit to a gank on the opposite side of the map.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never fight Xin Zhao in isolated 1v1s during early game without a clear escape plan or nearby units to possess.
- Avoid fighting him when his passive is stacked as his knockup will interrupt your abilities and leave you vulnerable.
