I fell that way too but I think its just the cicle: Im having fun with the champ -> having fun because Im winning to much on the champ -> winning to much because the champ is hidden op -> champ is nerfed

Disregarding his immobility, Xerath is technically busted in terms of damage. I think its fine, but lets hope its not such a serious nerf oof. Im surprised Syndra wasnt touched though, shes been getting banned 24/7 by my teams in a most matches I play

Yeah, I feel the same. Like I don't even have to be so fed, yet my Q takes half the health of some squishies LOL and it's just one Q with comet+luden+scorch proc lol

Having normal gold progression, his damage is seriously busted. I hoped riot would take more time before I climbed more. Do we know when is the patch coming into game?

Its so weird to me, yea he has some high snowball potencial and the nerfs are due to the chinese xerath player that stomps high elo but thats 1 player in the whole world, the rest didnt even hit challanger and most challangers never play xerath.

He is weak against any mobility, against and bruiser and tank so i cant see a reason to nerf him when we have shit like Ahri Syndra being busted for many patches which are always blindable and which got more challangers.

But hey time to buff LB again so my second main gets my first now after 3 buffs.

Sucks but yeah probably needed. His winrates both mid and bot are near 52% in Emerald+ and have been that way for a really long time. That’s nerf territory
