Who Wins
- You lose early trades levels 1-3 due to Xerath's superior range and poke damage.
- At level 6, you still struggle as his ultimate outranges your combo and he can stay safe while poking you down.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern is to use minions as shields and wait for Xerath to waste abilities on the wave.
- When he steps up to auto-attack minions or mispositions, you can land a quick W-Q combo and back off immediately.
Wave Control
- Focus on shoving waves quickly with Q to minimize his poke windows and create roam opportunities.
- You want to avoid extended laning phases where he can freely poke you, so prioritize fast clears and map movements.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never try to all-in him without flash or jungle assistance as he will simply kite you with his range advantage.
- Avoid standing in minion waves where his Q can hit both you and minions for maximum damage.
