Read from Renata Glasc's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Xerath.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Renata Glasc | Level 1 favours you against an immobile mage with no early threat. |
| Level 2 | Renata Glasc | At level 2 your all-in beats Xerath before his zoning comes online. |
| Level 3 | Xerath | By level 3 his Q and E out-range your kit, so the poke war is his. |
| Levels 4-5 | Xerath | Levels 4-5 his E-slow-into-Q pattern free-hits you off CS. |
| Level 6 | Xerath | His level-6 R out-ranges your ult, keeping lane pressure his. |
| First item | Xerath | First-item Q poke out-damages anything you can answer with. |
| Two+ items | Renata Glasc | 2+ item grouped fights punish his zero mobility via your pull and flip. |
Levels 1-2 are yours: Xerath is completely immobile with weak early poke, so you can step up with a Handshake threat and your ADC and force a short all-in before his Q/E zoning is online — this is the phase to build any lead you'll get. He reaches ground your tether cannot, so stop contesting and hold your side of the lane. Mark him with an auto in the windows his mana forces on him, commit once his stun is already spent, and keep the shield-speed for your carry's exit rather than your own.
