How to Play with Vex as Xerath in LoL

When Xerath is an ally to Vex, he gets a moderate decrease in his complete damage dealt. This may signal that Vex does not help protection for him to deal more damage or that their participation also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Xerath is played together with Vex on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays without Vex. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Vex.

Additionally, when Xerath plays with Vex on the same side, he usually takes a little more damage than when he plays alone. Receiving more damage could indicate that Vex does a poor job of covering Xerath during teamfights.
