Who Wins
- You lose most 1v1 trades pre-6 due to Xerath's superior range and poke damage with Q.
- Post-6, you can win all-ins if you land Q since your burst combo is faster and more reliable than his.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern is to use minions as shields, then look for Q-E-auto combos when he steps up or wastes abilities.
- Avoid extended trades and focus on quick burst windows when your cooldowns align.
Wave Control
- Push early waves with E to establish priority, then look to roam or back for items.
- Against his superior range, you need to create advantages through map presence rather than lane dominance.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't try to match his poke range or stand in open areas where he can freely Q you.
- Getting chunked by repeated Qs makes you vulnerable to his R execute and forces bad recalls.
