Depends on how the Kass choose to play, cause he can REALLY shut down Xerath early on with the right runes etc ^-^

But ya I suppose Xerath won't get boned that hard cause he outranges Kass SO BADLY!

Anivia can make do against Xerath aswell, actually probably better than most others cause of her very long range Q and the wall to force him out of position ^^



If someone can't stay alive in lane for 6:30 seconds on their own then they got problems.

Xerath is really REALLY strong right now. Expecting some slight nerfs on his stun or his ult spammability.
The main reason why he's so strong is because once he gets his stun off, he blows his whole load on you, and you take insane amounts of damage. Kinda similar to Annie, but yet not the same.

He does a little bit less damage than Annie and his stun isn't AoE, but he also has about three times her range.

I suspect he'll become very popular once pro players start to use him. They were all at a tournament when he was released. :P

I suspect people are starting to target squishies with his ult... LOL.

Funny how long it takes players to figure these things out sometimes.

He's a siege tank. Have you ever played Starcraft or Starcraft 2? Xerath work exactly like the terran's siege tank. His range is his weakness. Get close to him asap and take him down. Xerath IS A LOT weaker at close range. But that's just IMO


Thats true.
Getting close can be difficult, so I recommend not fighting until you kill him, or give up of the battle and push, farm, idk.

Cho'Gath beats Xerath atm, he can't W or he gets ruptured.
Tri lane for life.

Getting close to him is hard, that's true, but if you manage to close-gap him, he's ****ed. You need a buy a lot more wards than normally when playing agaisnt a good Xerath, so you can ward any startegic bush. You also need to AVOID the teamfight if you do not know where Xerath is, for he will kill everyone easily.

+rep me and you'll get good karma, wich means you won't be reincarnated into a rock! Isn't that awesome?

But yes this idea has been discussed more than Pam Anderson's tits in a plastic surgeons office.
