OP puts up a poor reason why Xin is OP. But he is imho pretty IMBA. My reasoning is his early game damage and zoning ability are too high. Which btw responders of this post recommend you stay out of range of his charge effectively zoning your self. He is kinda like garen in that regard stay away from the bush and you will be ok but xin can easily close the distance and if you combine him with a support like zilean or Janna GG. This is one reason why he got his slow reduced. There is also a bug with his charge which causes all your abilities to be grayed out if he dashes into you because his dash literally puts him in you.

Also take into account that his dash and ult are aoe. he can easily dash into 3 or more people and take out at least one person while obviously dieing to focus fire but also putting at least three champs near half hp or even less.

He zones like a god against anyone who isn't a similar type of heavy dps. Heavy dps in general always seems to be on the OP side of things. (They all have strong zoning mechanics)

all I think needs to be done is removal of the slow component or reduced down significantly, base damage reduced and aoe removed off dash and change it to physical and add AD scaling added to it off total AD ____________________________________________ (Active): Xin Zhao charges an enemy, dealing physical damage and applying on hit affects. Additionally it slows enemies hit by 10% for 1.75 seconds.

Disagree with me or not I don't see why a physical champions needs such a strong Zoning ability that is also a strong magic Nuke. building thorn mail doesn't seem like a way to fix the problem either most Xins get Blood razor, starks and Mallet. The 2 of his abilties are strong magic Nukes and then top it of with madreds and he is doing tons of Magic damage too. The only use a Thormail would be is if you are a tank anyway as he will still kill you if you don't have the HP to back it up and the armor doesn't help against the magic damage he is doing.
