Guide to Synergizing Xerath and Zoe

Tips for Playing as Xerath with Zoe

If you stun an enemy with Shocking Orb, follow up with a guaranteed center hit on Eye of Destruction.

It's easier to land Arcanopulse on an enemy when they're moving toward or away from you, rather than side to side.

Eye of Destruction will make landing Arcanopulse easier as the target will be slowed.

Advice to Understand How Zoe Will Play

Sleepy Trouble Bubble travels further over walls. Find a hiding spot to set up for a long distance kill.

Break Sleep with your biggest damage source, since enemies who are asleep take double damage.

Paddle Star deals more damage the further it has flown. Casting it behind yourself before redirecting can deal tons of damage.

This shows that there is a terrible bond between Xerath and Zoe that results in them performing worse together than without each other.

Zoe has a much lower diffuclty than Xerath. That means you don't need to be careful when lining up Zoe teammates to play with, as they will need a much lower level of skill to cooperate well with you.
