User blog comment:ClariS/Why Xerath's Passive is Bad/@comment-5830369-20130318145725/@comment-6485849-20130319122858

Putting an ability on a champion just for 'lawls' doesn't actually justify anything. In fact, it demands thought and dedication to remove the passive and put something viable. Just like the articule states, newer champions have that jet-line feel with their passives and kit while older champions took much more finese to properly use, like Xerath.

Riot flops too much and makes too many excuses, not the job of a gaming company.
