Xerath Build Guide
Xerath is a long-range mid lane poke mage with solid current numbers: a 51.89% winrate and 4.48% pickrate as of patch 16.13.1. He’s also flexible into the support role per the lane data. Arcane Comet is the natural fit here, adding extra burst to his already lengthy poke abilities.
His build takes Luden’s Echo, Shadowflame, and Rabadon’s Deathcap, stacking burst and raw ability power for maximum damage output. Skill priority goes Q, W, E, prioritizing Arcanopulse for poke and wave clear. Full rune setups, item order, and matchup notes are available further down.
