Just tried playing the new xin...holy balls does he do a ton of damage, landing all three q's on a squishy would probably kill them, seems to fall off in teamfights though.

Anyways, after playing him, I thought of a tanky dps build that could work, please critique:

-merc treads/ninja tabis

-early phage into frozen mallet later: I really feel like he needs slows in order to finish off people effectively, also, gives much needed hp

-black cleaver: good amount of ad + as, tons of armor shred in conjunction with passive

-bloodthirster: tons of ad, lifesteal works well considering how much attack speed xin has

-randuins omen: gives tankiness so xin can survive *some* burst

-banshee's veil: decent mr and hp, also blocks cc, considering how xin needs to charge into the fray all the time, pretty awesome

21/9/0 masteries, AS reds, flat armor yellows, scaling mr glyphs and flat ad quints
