Tips for Playing as Zoe with Xerath

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.

Advice to Understand How Xerath Will Play

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

Overall, Zoe sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Xerath. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN.

This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Xerath.
