Xin Zhao into Sejuanimedium

Overview

Use Xin Zhao's superior early dueling and mobility to aggressively contest Scuttle and invade Sejuani's jungle before she completes her first clear.
Prioritize disrupting Sejuani's controlled pathing to deny her safe farm and force her into reactive plays that favor your early skirmishing style.
Leverage your strong level 3 and level 6 spikes to force fights around river and objectives before Sejuani groups with allies.

Jungle Plan

Path aggressively toward river and enemy camps when nearby lanes have priority to secure Scuttle and force Sejuani off her jungle.
Counter-gank and fight for early objectives like Dragon and Rift Herald when your team controls lane priority and vision.
Avoid direct fights if Sejuani has her main engage tools ready; instead, reset tempo by farming your side or contesting neutral camps cross-map.
