Bel'Veth vs Xin Zhao

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Prioritize uninterrupted full clears to reach your major scaling power spikes before engaging Xin Zhao in fights.
Avoid early risky invades unless your lanes have priority to support river control and Scuttle contests.
Focus on objective conversions post-Herald or Baron to leverage your true form map pressure.

Jungle Plan

Prioritize fast full clears and only detour for high-percentage skirmishes when lanes have priority.
Fight for Scuttle Crab and river control only when your lanes can collapse first to offset Xin Zhao's early dueling strength.
Use Herald and Baron takedowns to convert into deep vision, tower pressure, and jungle control, leveraging your scaling advantage.

Danger windows

Xin Zhao's level 3 with (E) and (Q) ready creates a high threat window for river fights; avoid isolated skirmishes then.
Be cautious during early objective setups where (R) can zone out ranged follow-up and isolate you.
Low-health clears or forced smite fights before your first item increase risk; avoid contesting without lane priority.

Early game

Execute efficient full clears and avoid early fights unless a high-value skirmish is guaranteed with lane priority.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes can move first and provide support to avoid Xin Zhao's strong level 3 dueling.
Track Xin Zhao's pathing to anticipate counter-ganks and avoid extended river fights without lane assistance.

Power spikes

First item completion significantly boosts your sustained damage and dueling potential; fight around objectives once this is reached.
Herald or Baron takedowns empower your true form, enabling you to break the map and pressure towers effectively.
Respect Xin Zhao's level 3 power spike when he gains full kit access and can force river fights with (E) and (Q).

Win conditions

Use your superior clear speed and scaling to reach item and stack thresholds before contesting objectives.
Convert Herald and Baron takedowns into map pressure by pushing towers and establishing deep vision to deny Xin Zhao's counterplay.
Counter-jungle and counter-gank when lanes have priority, forcing Xin Zhao into unfavorable extended fights you can win with (E) and (Q) mobility.
