Introduction:
These are some of the builds I just made throughout playing this 'new' champion.
This guild will only be for players with experience, I WILL NOT got through the basics of the spells and items because i'm going to assume that you already have this basic knowledge.
I will explain the early game, mid game and late game.
I will also explain the laning phase.
Xayah's early game is pretty bad, not gonna lie. Her damage output lacks most and depends too much on her 'Blade Caller' (E) to do most of the damage.
This is why you will build a phage, it helps will mobility problems (so she can get damage out), it helps with her squishyness (*cough* assassins) and it will assist her with a little amount of damage.
Usually i would stay back and farm, Xayah has good wave clear but DO NOT use your abilities recklessly as she has mana problems.
Xayah's full combo can take 1/3 - 2/3 of your mana bar depending on your level.
Use your passive to harass enemy ADCs, if they have a squishy support such as a Sona, I would target her forcing her out of lane and leaving her ADC alone. Also your passive will leave feathers down that can ZONE OUT enemy adc from farm, if possible use the trading stance and follow it up with 'Blade Caller" (E) and other abilities. (Watch Youtube videos on the trading stance, it is an important skill just like freezing lane and etc.)
Summary:
- Play safe.
- Mana hungry champion.
- Poke a lot.
- ZONE

Mid game for Xayah is very important as it will determine her late game result, Xayah has a lot zoning potential. The more feathers down on the field the more of a threat she becomes, before starting a team fight try to stack 3 feathers in front of you in case of enemy assassins jumping in. Your positioning needs to be carefully looked over, ask yourself "Am i safe?", "Are my tanks in front?", "Is there anyone flanking?", "Who should i target?". Usually you would aim the ADC or AP carry as they are the enemy team's source of damage. How I usually do this is use my passive to place down feathers tell my team to run back then use 'Blade Caller' (E) to root the carries if they walk forward. If you are slightly out of position try to your 'Blade Caller' (E) > Flash into the direction to root. (Practice this skill in training) This combo gives the enemy almost no time to react and allows your front line to get easy picks.
Note: Try to take the first row of towers one by one, for example you would take bot tower.
Once you back you would go mid and get that tower, next you would go top and get that tower too. This would allow you guys to have access to Dragon/Rift in the mid game. Objectives ALWAYS COME FIRST BEFORE KILLS.
Summary:
- Zone
- Positioning
- Questioning
- Combo E > Flash
- Practice
- Objectives FIRST.

Late game is very similar to the mid game, if you do well in the mid game in the positioning and all that, you will be able to do well in the late game. Just remember to position well, ward and don't get caught out. Late game can decide the winner of the match no matter how far or ahead you are. All they need is 60 seconds to rush down mid.
Laning phase is a hard one, you use your passive to your advantage by poking down enemy laners. But in most cases the enemy laner would have more 'burst' power than you such as lucian or draven.
Try not to trade against enemies UNLESS you are VERY sure you can win the trade OR kill the enemy laner.
I suggest watching mroe videos about laning phase such as freezing and the trading stance then use to that to your advantage. This will increase your player's ability and help you climb the ranks.
Xayah is only strong if the controller is smart, you need to take wise actions and learn her through many games. I suggest playing normals until you get comfortable then start playing ranked, there are a couple combos you can learn such as the E > Flash or R (wait for the last second) > Flash > E or R > E > Flash. All these combos will help you throughout your early game. Don't make any stupid decisions and die for free, try to get sometimes in return of more value, this will benefit you for your item build progress and your mid/late game.

I hoped you learnt something new, I didn't want to put a lot of 'detailing' into this just because I thought it wasn't needed. There is also sometimes to learn to make yourself a better player, climb out of elo hell and I hope you have a good day!
