Based on 13 recent matches analyzed, Qiyana wins with a 61.5% win rate compared to Xin Zhao's 38.5%, giving Qiyana a 23.1 percentage point advantage. Qiyana dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights.

Qiyana has a strong advantage in this matchup. Xin Zhao players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Qiyana overextending.
