^ uh, wrong.

Thornmail destroys Xins. I can't tell you how many times I have built it and watched Xin's kill themselves on me. Somebody may want to fact check for me, but I am pretty sure that his Q is bonus Attack damage, not Bonus Magic damage.

What people seem to neglect is that thornmail on Squishies is not as effective as it is on tanks. You are still taking the damage, So you need to be able to take 300% of what Xin is dishing out (before resistances are applied) for you to kill him with thornmail alone.

CC is a safer bet.
