With all this talk about runes, Evelynn VU rework and Janna changes...
Everyone seems to have forgotten that Xin Zhao got a rework as well. And that it sucks HARD. I'm not going to lie and say his old W was engaging gameplay, but atleast it activated WHEN I wanted it to. This new W brought back everything Rengar's Q did bad and made it worse: it is incredibly slow casting, deals pathetic damage AND allows people to dodge it due to how slow the final thrust actually is. In fact, I went one game literally ignoring its existence and didn't feel anything different.
His new ultimate SHOULD be good, but it really isn't. It is simply a way to survive a little more with new trash defensive stats he has. And ONLY against ranged opponents. The tanks? The bruisers? The guys that actually wreck your face? Nah, those can easily go back in and keep wrecking your face, since CC isn't stopped by it.
Overall, feels like another rushed, failed rework.
