i would say they are very similar, having mained xin, and then nocturne

xinzhao plays like an easymode version of nocturne (with less potential) if played strictly like an assassin. however if you factor in teamfight ability, escape abilities, etc. they get a bit more different. xin almost always has to build at least slightly tanky, and nocturne can sometimes get away with all offensive items if he doesn't let the game drag on too long.
