Dear RIOT, PLEASE dont nerf Xerath direcly but indirecly, nerf mana flow or nerf Xero Q only early game.

Xerath is a skillshot champ and if you miss you wil suck, but with mana flow you can miss and still win lane because ... infinite mana especialy after you rush lost chapter.

Second is to just nerf Xero early Q damage, as we see Xerath is best early game ( http://prntscr.com/hkizgd ) atlaest by looking at the stats.

And if you will nerf him.. then ATLEAST fix the half a... skins what have body parts clipping into each other in certain animations or you can see inside Xerath hand with some skins because .. reasons... :(

He is already the champion who gets fucked the most by ALL assassins in the game EASILY, there is almost nothing he can do about it. If mages were meta he would need nerfs, but since assassins run rampant he shouldn't be touched.

How about we don't nerf Xerath at all?

I'm tired of my favorite picks being nerfed the moment they become strong while things like Ahri, Orianna, Fizz, Zed, MF, etc. get to be relevant for seasons.

He is too safe. He has basically infinite mana with passive and mana flow, after morello he basically can lane forever.

He provides way too much damage while being one of the most safest apc in game.

if xerath was "op" more people would play him.

xeraths q is fine you just need to dodge it.

the q even tells you where its going to fall before it hits

Even before Manaflow he had next to no mana problems and was a top pick.

If this change goes through we will have to accept that riot has gone mad. To nerf xerath, the most skillshot reliant champ in the game. Hitting your skillshots is a pain in the arse but at least it hitted hard. Now he is getting quite literally nerfed. No compensation no nothing. Good job riot, you are fking awesome.

Xerath is a skillshot champ and if you miss you wil suck, but with mana flow you can miss and still win lane because ... infinite mana especialy after you rush lost chapter.

Missing your skillshots and still winning lane because you have infinite effective mana is unhealthy for the game and shouldn't happen. You should get punished for missing your skillshots, not rewarded.

I mean, I won't be happy until he actually has counterplay in ARAM. Even if they nerf him, he'll still need a lot more nerfs to actually be able to be fought in ARAM. I've won more 4v5s than I've won ARAMs against Xerath and lost with Xerath on my team combined.

And, no, that's not an exaggeration. That's actually, 100% true. I have 0 wins against Xerath in ARAM, 1 loss with him on my team in ARAM, and have won 3 4v5s.
