Is Xerath effective top?

I mean, he can keep mobile assassins at bay by making sure they never get close enough for their combos like Zed and Yasuo, and can even use the brush to charge up the laser so they cant dodge his skillshots. He can just grab morello whenever he faces sustain and can turn lanes with tanks into simple farm lanes.

Xerath synergizes well with teleport, as it allows him to be more mobile around the map and instantly stop any sieging attempts by destroying the minion waves. The enemy should never be close enough for you to have to use ghost, barrier, exhaust, heal, and even ignite, so I generally never take anything but tp and clairvoyance for the ult snipes.

I'm mega low elo, but in my xperience I've never lost lane top as Xerath, and I've had about 50 games top Xerath. I'd like high elo opinion.
