His enigmatic, silent vigil has led to an abundance of conjecture concerning his secret life and origins. Whether it's Zaun double-agent tendered at the dinner table or indebted rune mage mused in the editorials of the Demacian Constant , Xin Zhao betrays no hints to sate the curiosity of the masses Years ago, Noxus was renowned for a spectacle called The Fleshing.
It was a gladiatorial event with a cruel twist: as a fighter won matches, his number of opponents generally prisoners of war fought simultaneously would increase. This meant eventual death for every contender, but with unparalleled glory. Xin Zhao, known then as Viscero, was slated to face soldiers, nearly six times the previous record.
This was clearly meant to be his final match. Jarvan II, hearing of this unprecedented feat, infiltrated the arena to offer him an alternative: serve Demacia and punish those who ultimately sentence him to death in exchange for his freedom. Xin Zhao accepted, astonished that a king would risk his own life on his behalf. Under the cover of a prearranged Demacian assault on Noxus, Jarvan liberated Xin Zhao and his opponents.
During their retreat, Xin Zhao took a poisoned dart meant for Jarvan. The enhanced attacks present input buffering during their wind-up animation Xin Zhao cannot be issued any commands until after it ends. Edit Wind Becomes Lightning. Spell shield will block only a single instance of damage - either the thrust or the slash.
The first strike will occur immediately and the second will occur after the cast time completes. Wind Becomes Lightning's first strike will occur from wherever Xin Xhao is at the start of the cast time, whereas the second strike will occur from wherever Xin Zhao is at the end of the cast time. The second strike's hitbox includes the same radius around Xin Zhao , a missile with range and 80 total width, and a radius area check upon the end of the missile.
The radius check does not hit champion summoned units. Edit Audacious Charge. The primary target cannot dodge Audacious Charge's effects. The target will always emit the area of effect from their position. If no unit is targeted directly, Audacious Charge will search for possible targets in a radius around the target location.
Edit Crescent Guard. Pets , traps , ground AoEs , DoTs , and delayed-damage abilities e. Death Mark , Explosive Charge , Hemoplague will not damage Xin Zhao if the enemy champion source is outside the circle when the damage applies. Crescent Guard will cast from wherever Xin Zhao is at the end of the cast time. Displacement immunity will also resist the application of the stun.
Enemies will not be marked as Challenged if Crescent Guard has not been learned. Learning the ability after an enemy would have been marked will still cause them to be knocked back.
Bug Fix: Basic attacking an enemy after casting Wind Becomes Lightning now correctly consumes all Determination stacks. Wind Becomes Lightning Visual clarity updates to hitbox and indicator.
Cast time changed to 0. Mana cost increased to 60 from Thrust range increased to units from Thrust missile speed increased to from New Effect: Thrust damage now Challenges and reveals champions and monsters for 3 seconds. New Effect: Hitbox now extends slightly behind him for visual clarity.
Cooldown reduced to 11 seconds from Dash speed reduced to from Crescent Guard Duration increased to 5 seconds from 3. Removed: Basic attacks and ability casts no longer extend the duration by 0. Spear Thrust now originates from Xin Zhao's position at the end of the cast.
Audacious Charge Short-ranged dashes will now correctly move him forward to the target. Base armor increased to 35 from New sound effects.
The downside for Xin Zhao is that his overall damage with attack-damage builds might take a hit. The bonus physical damage on his Three Talon Strike Q will be nerfed, but the new range and build opportunities will hopefully make up for it. As of patch Since his release all the way back in , Xin Zhao has mostly been seen as a pick for the jungle.
Xin Zhao has struggled to find a place in the meta for a long time, but when he is picked up, he is strongest as a jungler.
