How a strong Xerath player plays

  1. 1

    E stun into AQ trade

    Xerath will E stun you when you step up, then AQ to stack Dark Harvest for better trades.

  2. 2

    Auto-attack test then W center

    Xerath will auto-attack to test if you dodge; if you don't, he lands W center for higher accuracy.

  3. 3

    Predictive E into ult

    Xerath reads your movement patterns (turn back, stand still, straight line), predicts E, then immediately ults for full damage.
