Overview

Lin “Xxs” Jing is a Chinese professional Dota 2 offlaner currently playing for Xtreme Gaming. Known for his aggressive initiation and teamfight control, he has been one of China’s most consistent offlaners since his breakout with Invictus Gaming.

As of 2026, Xxs is part of Xtreme Gaming’s veteran core alongside Ame, fy, and xNova, competing at the highest level and continuing China’s push to reclaim dominance in international Dota.

Early Career

Xxs rose to prominence in 2017 with Invictus Gaming, where he quickly gained recognition during The International 2017, finishing in 4th place as a relatively unknown player at the time.

His performance at TI7 put him on the map as one of the most promising young offlaners in China, especially for his confidence and ability to initiate fights against top-tier teams.

Invictus Gaming Era (2017–2022)

Key highlights:

– Winning Singapore Major 2021, one of China’s biggest post-COVID LAN victories

– Consistent top finishes in Chinese DPC leagues

– Multiple appearances at The International

During this period, Xxs became known for his reliable initiation and laning strength, often serving as the backbone of iG’s teamfight execution.

Transition Period (2023–2024)

After Invictus Gaming’s peak, Xxs experienced a quieter period as the Chinese scene underwent major roster changes.

While still respected, he was less visible internationally during this time, as China struggled to maintain consistent results against WEU teams.

Xtreme Gaming Era (2025–2026)

In 2025, Xxs joined Xtreme Gaming, forming a superteam core with Ame, NothingToSay, fy, and xNova.

Key highlights:

– Grand Finals at The International 2025 (2nd place)

– Re-establishing himself as a top-tier offlaner globally

In 2026, Xxs continues to play a crucial role as the team’s primary initiator and frontline, enabling Ame and NothingToSay to scale and carry games.

Key strengths include:

– Reliable initiation in high-pressure fights
