I have a feeling that it's very effective because i did it once and it was too op when enemies try to focus me because i am the mage carry but same time i was tank
OtterlyLost7 votesAbyssal isn't really viable on him anymore but Banshee's would work in its place
Proxy3455 votesProblem is that Abyssal Scepter does not help Xerath's kit much because all of his skills have longer range than Abyssal Scepter's aura.
Joseph Gladstone1 votesalso its getting changed soon so its probably good to get that off the list
DrCyanide1 votesI wouldn't call a new icon for the item a change worth re-evaluating it. It's already got the stats/effects shown on the PBE's screenshot.
Joseph Gladstone1 votesdidnt know the changes were already on, mb
Titanium703 votesIt's a build working for for extended Teamfighting. AKA: Enemy has at least 2 Full-Tanks as well as your team. THAN that is a build I'd go for.
Against traditional YoloQ-Teams. The squishy FULLAP build seems alot better to me.
Azure Hamster2 votesI'm not an expert on this (I'm an ADC), but just glancing at that build, it looks ok to me. You have lots of AP, slow, extra damage from Abyssal and Liandri's, some survivability and some CDR.
420 grams2 votesWell assuming you buy rod first, you won't do very much damage early since it only gives 60 ap. Next the slow will make you more of a utility mage than a damage one. You won't really be tanky until your last 2 items since that's when you get resistances and not just health.
It's a good utility build that can still one shot a squishy (like everything else in the game) but it's not a ton of damage.
KoKoboto1 votesBanshee feels absolutely broken on long range mages
Erockandroll1 votesWith the Extra HP, The slow and %HP melt, I would guess such a build will be useful against a tanky team, especially if you need to kite them. The extra HP will help your from being bursted down in one combo. While the Slow will allow you to maintain distance and widdle your attackers down.
This would be different from a more typical Siege build, but I think would serve a specific purpose.
DunkinNoobs1 votesI have no idea what that Swain build is doing on Xerath, but ok.
