Just why? Sated already made him broken, then you go ahead and buff him because he wasnt strong enough. Why?

No there isnt. Nobody gets healed 200 hp every other hit with no lifesteal items. Nobody else has a knock up every 2 hits. He is right click AFK. Now they go ahead and make it so he can right-click AFK even better. Now when he right clicks you, it automatically crits you every third hit and heals you for even more. There is no counterplay. He can build full tank and be impossible to kill and still kill you before you hit the ground.

Let's make some calculation, his w heal him for 50hp +40%ap ratio (it was 70% before) and 20%ad ratio, guinsoo when fully stacked give 72 ap so 28,8 bonus healing and 54 ad + 114 at level 18 so 33,6 bonus healing. Total of 112,24+20% from spirit visage = 134,88 healing. And that's at level 18 with fully stacked guinsoo. With the 0.7% before the change he would heal like 20 hp less maybe so no much difference. don't forget that grevious wound (800 gold for ad, more expensive and not so good for ap with morellicon) will make him heal only for about 80 hp.

The crits on the third attack is useful and surely wasn't needed but most xin don't build much ad and he only crits for 75% bonus damage and it ignore devourer ghost, You don't build xin full tank, you build him like a bruiser, 2 damage item than go tanky. I agree that he don't have much counter play but so are most AA based champion in the game. xin, tryndamere, master yi, jax for me are similar and they all luck counterplay that's why riot nerf then when they are too strong at high elo
