Here are the problems which i encounter while i play Xerath:

1.His passive.Early/mid game armor is a good thing but late game if you get cought in a teamfight extra armor wont save you due to the lack of an escape mechanism.

2.In order to do tons of damage with Xerath in a teamfight you have to immobilise and in most cases teamfights are very dynamic and the cast time on W makes me to be left behind.

3.Champions with gap closer abyiities destroy Xearth.

4.Xerath i sa long range ap poke carry.With cdr on DFG i used to spam Q but not anymore.

For making him more viable Riot should decrease his cast time on W and/or increase the movement buff after W.Also a magic pen passive would be nice. It is very annoying when you cant clear a whole minion wave in mid game with a single Q.
