The Gwen versus Xin Zhao matchup in the jungle is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.
The magic damage that Gwen deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Xin Zhao deals mainly physical damage (86.32%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
An important advantage of Gwen is higher farming statistics (ranked 18th among role champions) (versus 46th for Xin Zhao), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.6 versus 2.4) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Gwen player to maintain constant pressure on Xin Zhao, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
