Who Wins
- Pre-6 you win if you land Q hooks due to superior burst and engage, but lose poke wars against their range advantage.
- Post-6 becomes harder as Xerath R and Ezreal E make picks more difficult, requiring perfect positioning.
Synergy & Trading
- Look for Q hooks when enemies step up to CS or when Xerath uses abilities on minions.
- Follow successful hooks with E-auto-ignite while Jhin delivers Q-W-auto burst for maximum kill pressure.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Roam mid or jungle after level 3 when you have full combo available, especially when your ADC is safe to farm.
- Time roams when enemies are low from poke or when objectives are spawning.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't throw random Q hooks that put you out of position if missed - wait for guaranteed opportunities.
- Avoid face-checking brushes or walking up without minions, as Xerath E can catch you easily in open areas.
