Disagree. Xin isn't weak early to mid, and he isn't OP in late. His early to midgame disallows him to kill targets instantaneously with his combo, but due to his W's slow he can effectively harass and threaten opponents as long as his E is off cooldown.

His W works excellently on knocked opponents. Essentially it's the old combo, only you end with your W - allowing Xin to safely fall back. His lategame is strong, but he's still a melee with a small gapcloser that is predictable in the most literal way. He's vulnerable to kiting and will always be.

Nevertheless he's still a pubstomper, hence you call him OP lategame.
