Zed
Zed is you main nemesis. You could win a 1 vs 1 against him during phrase lane but don't over chase him or you'll eat cloves with milk, prefer play defensively. REQUIRED: Zhonya's Hourglass instead Dark Seal, or both if you feel badass. Mid/late game: Limit to just poke from afar and don't risk too much to the front. Take it for granted that he will always look for you to kill you. He can win battles, but if you play well with your set of skills, you will win the war.
Champion Build Guide
With ONLY Xerath I managed to get to Platinum rank, and Diamond with a borrowed account (from Platinum III to Diamond V). I don't think anyone gets to play it as much as I did or take away the potential that I have developed with him after countless hours and hours of gameplay. But don't make a bad idea of me, I'm just obsessed with the champion, which does not have to be the case in your case. What I am going to present to you next is a guide for you to quickly master your potential w/o need to invest or sacrifice attention to other champions like I did.
