ugh. every time someone advocates nashors my desk gets a new indentation.

imo new xin should just go frozen heart/randuins for cdr. ghostblade for some damage + more cdr. then just build situationally. you could probably get away with 1-2 damage items on top of ghostblade since his ulti gives a ton of tank stats if you land it well.

tbh I hate the fact that Riot's making champs that have only AD ratios. What's wrong with having skills that don't scale with items (unless you play some trolly build)? the original concept behind ad/ap was that you build AD to do damage w/ autos and build AP to do damage with abilities. I understand that moving away from that concept gives you some really unique and cool champion concepts, but homogenizing ratios also makes for kinda boring (lack of) variety.

I wish stinger built into some actual decent item for AD bruisers.
I love the new ult. Being able to isolate their AD in a lategame teamfight is really powerful.

I also find Nashor's pretty good on Kayle. The AP ratio is not so good on his E, but the Q and W. The CDR and AS are also quite crucial to Kayle.

Hey guys how do you feel about support xin? He has bad scaling anyways, a decent knockup and gap closer, support items are fine on him (starks/omen/aegis/shurelyas), and they will be giving him a knockback on him ult and 15% armor reduction. Janna 2.0?

..................

if you're goin bruiser Teemo why do you need AP? Besides, it's 65 AP for 2.6k and most of Teemo's damage comes from his E, which has a 0.14 AP ratio.

Support Xin is amazing as is. I think the rework will actually hurt support Xin. If you open cloth+ward+pots, at lvl 2 and 3 you're even manlier than support garen/j4/pantheon. 2 dorans shield+merc+aegis. Wriggles if you're into that kind of thing.

Because he can safely knock people up without getting near them, gives your AD a free BF sword from level 9 onwards and is able to heal your whole team in clutch situations? A support character is a champion who does great without farm, not one who is good with auras. Support Xin is garbage.
currently rooting for myself.

I only do it in ranked 5's and normals thoughbecause I don't want to troll peole in solo queue so I can't seriously vouch for it but I usually do suprisingly well.
