Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.
Except for rare builds, Xin Zhao deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Kayn deals mainly physical damage (88.63%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
An important advantage of Xin Zhao is higher farming statistics (ranked 30th among role champions) (versus 32nd for Kayn), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Xin Zhao player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Kayn player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.
