User blog comment:ClariS/Why Xerath's Passive is Bad/@comment-122.106.33.58-20130318061127

"Also, his passive doesn't even make sense with his lore, or theme. So, that's not even a valid reason."

That's just not right. Just look at Xerath and you'll find that he's covered in rocks and what not - so it kinda does make sense for him to have an armor passive.

However, I do agree with much of your article. Although - in my opinion - the passive does relate to his model/lore, it doesn't do a lot in terms of gameplay. Though as you stated, the passive is nonetheless useful to have.

(Just a side note - the article was well-written but just try to keep it concise - I'm sure a lot of people won't bother reading an article that long.)
