Xin's ER gives him more immediate burst than Irelia while his W and CD reduction also gives him higher long-term DPS than Irelia. This is coming from a guy who mains both champions Xin is my most played, Irelia is my 2nd most played. The reason he isn't played at high elo isn't because of the bullshit being spread around about his 'bad' scaling or base stats. It is because he has no escape and can do absolutely nothing about getting ganked in lane, especially early on. He is just too hard to play safely. He also builds up a bad reputation because a lot of bad players play him thinking he is 'easy'. They build squishy dps and die in 2 seconds.
