He's not risky, no one ever said that. In fact he's everything but risky. Point-and-click champion with virtually no way to screw up. The problem is just that he's outclassed. Lee Sin can do pretty much the same but with better results. Vi scales twice as hard into late game while being just as strong early on. Kha'Zix does much more damage to squishies and carries a game on his own. Pantheon is a duelist as good as Xin but his global ult makes him a threat at all times. Wukong has ridiculous teamfighting presence with his AoE knockup scaling at 480% AD. It's pointless to pick Xin Zhao when everyone else can bring more to the table. I guess he might become popular again after the Lee and Panth nerfs scheduled for next patch, but now is not his time.
