Throatslasher is correct 100% . Because Xerath's passive only provides armor it is crucial that the player playing him in Draft, Ranked games that knows WHEN to pick him and WHEN NOT to pick him. As his example stated a duo AP lane setup as well as an AP jungler would make choosing him not the best idea because his passive would become useless.

Bottom line:

Xerath is a valid choice when the enemy team comp allows you to be. I love Xerath but I do not play him when I know things will not go in my favor based on enemy comp and mid match-up.

If they change his passive then maybe that would change but as of right now thats how I see it.

Xerath would work fine with enemy junglers like trundle, udyr, shyvana. People intended to initiate but can be stunned on the way of doing so. He also has great poke.
If you for some reason want to follow my ranked journey to gold, you can do it Here.

I am against asking for rep, only rep me if you think I contributed well or said something wise.

Xerath's armor is meh not even noticable at all.

If you wanna learn Xerath go watch Chauster play.

i just played 3 xerath games over the weekend, i hadn't played him in months. I ****ing hate xerath. he's arguably one of the weakest mids i've ever played. he's just ****ing terrible. Why play xerath when you can play ahri, they arguably do the exact same thing.
