XERATH CDS VS LUX

Okay... What?

Lux Q vs Xerath E have similar cooldowns (with Xerath E having 2 seconds less at rank 1, but they have the same at rank 5), and while Xerath E is a stun rather than snare - Lux Q deals significantly more damage, have more range and can apply to 2 targets rather than one.

Lux E vs Xerath W have similar cooldowns again, though a bit less than in first case (Xerath W having 4 seconds longer cooldown at rank 1, but they have the same at max rank). Xerath have smaller slow and less damage unless he hits the empowered one, in which case it have more damage and stronger slow. Lux does however have 50% bigger AoE.

Lux R vs Xerath R have cooldowns in favor of Lux (quite highly too, with 50s difference at all ranks). Since rank 2 Xerath have more range than Lux. The damage from Xerath is higher if he hits 2+ charges, while Lux have significantly bigger AoE (and well, isn't as simple to dodge as Xerath ultimate is).

Now, it's hard to compare the rest of their skills, since Xerath doesn't have an utility basic spell and Lux doesn't have a pure-damage basic spell - though Xerath does have utility passive and Lux have pure damage passive.

...What?

I'm trying to make sense of this, but there's no point or explanation.

The fact that a full combo from Xerath deals the same damage of a single Lux spell + AA is totally irrilevant amIright?

I think he is saying Lux CDs are too high.
