He's only going to be hitting one person at a time with most of his stuff. killing things = survivability (FACTS) | ||

This seems like the most solid 3 items Xin can get. Do you go straight for completed items or piece it out? | ||

I usually start boots + 3, but dblade/dshield have their places and you can follow up boots with doran's items if you need earlier power spikes than bruta. dshield with 21 defensive is really great vs. stuff like nid/teemo that attack you a ton for early lane pressure. Ghostblade CD went from 60 seconds to 45 and it now always gives you 6 seconds of the buff which is very useful in practice for when you're getting kited. | ||
