Okay, I just experience it for the first time. I'm at a loss for words--Tryndameres entire ult is 4 seconds of not being able to die. Xin gets 3 seconds of being invincible? That's a long time considering his ult is also 1)a knock back 2) a stun and 3)damage plus % of health damage.

Really Riot? I mean, WTF? His ult is one of the most obnoxious things I've seen in 3 years of playing this game. I utterly resent having to take a loss because I was ignorant of how strong and broken that ult of his is. I now have to consider banning him as his BS makes other champions who are ban worthy seem basic and manageable.

I am curious to see what the rationale is going to be for the people who are going to defend the change, and Riot. You know me, I personally think Riot is a barely competent company who's success has more to do with entering the market at the right time than actually being innovated or creative. I pretty much have zero respect for them as a company to begin with.

He only ignores damage from people outside of the ring, if I remember correctly. It's his only defense against diving in and having ranged hammering on him. Which I think is fair, because if you're an ADC and can't hit him, that means he's focusing someone that isn't you, and you have more opportunities to do your job. He's not immune to death like Trynd is.

Tryndamere's ult is also 5 seconds btw.

You're right. Xin's ult is quite good, but balanced in my opinion. It's his only safe tool when it comes to diving and people can easily damage him by walking into the circle!

Well if you didnt know about his ult of course it's going to catch you by surprise.

Personnaly i'm very happy with his changes, they shifted so much power out of his auto-attacks in favor of some poke and a better ult, he feels much less oppressive than before.

Pre-rework i didn't want a Xin to jump on me, now he barely tickles me unless he hits me with his W.

That's funny, because last I checked, Xin's ult has readily available counterplay unlike Tryn's little slice of cancer ult.
