Hey im not trying to sound like "Im better than you". But I dominate anyone as Xerath, the trick is to Anchor (W), then Mage Chain them (E), then quickly Lauch 1 Blast of your (R) on them, THEN Q (while they are stunned) then lay the last 2 blasts of your ult on them. Do this and you will wreck absolutely anybody you face. If anything the other team needs a jungler. I agree that his Q is rather hard to land at max range, but thats the trade off. Force beyond measure for hard skillshots.

So I would say that Brand's Stun is harder to land than Xerath's, and there is my grievance. Brand.

I dont see why everyone screams hes OP. Honestly, iv played him dozens of times, he just fails. His E is too close range to land safetly. His W is impossible to land because by the time it does dmg people already leave the ring, and his Q is a first-hit skillshot, which sucks because everybody hides behind their minions. How come people say Brand is OP and not Xerath?...
