How to effectively counter Li Xin? Guang Xin is afraid of blocking, while An Xin is defeated by his misplaced confidence. (II)


The appearance of Yu Ji perfectly confirms that Guangxin's weakness is blocking. Imagine charging up your ultimate skill for ages, only to have it easily blocked – anyone would be driven crazy. Besides immunity, Gongsun Li's umbrella, if released precisely at the right moment, can slice through Guangxin's sword energy. Miyamoto Musashi and Dunshan are also top choices, guaranteeing Guangxin has no fun whatsoever. Slow support efficiency is another weakness. Undeniably, he's good at taking lane control, but he's limited to one lane. With teleportation, he can instantly fly to the far end of the map to join team fights or push lanes, making it difficult for him to keep up with the pace. To avoid this type of situation, some players choose to switch to Dark Guangxin.

Advantages of secret communication: It provides a line of control.

Dark Xin, the most popular build, is a lone wolf, focusing on split pushing and excellent map roaming. He has a speed boost, but his damage output is slow to develop, and his team fight strength is average. He's often criticized in high-level ranked matches, but more forgiving in regular ranked games. There's an unspoken rule in the game: everyone knows that picking Dark Xin is equivalent to a 4v5 situation. He's good at farming and creating pressure, much like Cheng Yaojin. His strength lies in his invulnerability and speed boost, making him difficult to lock down with control heroes. He excels in 1v1 situations, making him a lone wolf. In ranked games where the pace isn't fast, he's allowed free rein to split push, distract opponents, and use backdoor tactics; speed is key to victory.

High-level players dislike individualism. Insufficient team numbers halve their win rate in team fights, especially when behind. Seeing everyone nearly wiped out, just one player short, the benefit of wiping out the entire team far outweighs the cost of stealing a tower with Dark Xin. As rank increases and awareness improves, a little observation of the minimap reveals Dark Xin's strategies. A coordinated frontal assault, overwhelming the enemy with numbers, means that even with Dark Xin's crowd control immunity, focused fire damage won't last long.

The weakness of the secret letter: in direct confrontation, it can suppress the enemy on the spot.

The second way to counter this is to fight fire with fire. Since the opponent loves to steal towers so much, then pick a hero to carry the team and have the two of them duel in one lane to decide the outcome. Mi Yue can easily handle An Xin, and Nezha can use his teleportation to return to the team fight, so you don't have to worry about the towers being stolen.

Single-target heroes are a perfect counter to Dark Xin. Heroes like Donghuang Taiyi, Jin Chan, and Zhang Liang can easily trap and lock down Dark Xin, preventing him from escaping and leaving him vulnerable to slaughter. Dark Xin's gameplay is extremely selfish and easily disrupts the balance. Players who understand psychological tactics can manipulate the enemy team to incite internal strife, making them the ultimate villain and lose their enjoyment of the game; otherwise, a loss would be unacceptable.
