Overall, Lux sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Xerath. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN.

This could signal that Xerath does not help cover for her to dish out more damage or that his support also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Lux is played together with Xerath on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Xerath.
Additionally, when Lux plays with Xerath on the same team, she often receives a little more damage than when she plays alone. Getting dealt more damage may mean that Xerath does a poor job of covering Lux in teamfights.

By being on the same team as Lux, he raises their win rate by 0.5% to 50.3%. This shows that there is not really a strong strategic relationship between Lux and Xerath that results in them performing stronger together than alone.

Working together, Lux players should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magic damage. When paired, these champs can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.
Conversely, by aligning Lux and Xerath together, you probably will not be granting your team very much AD. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative disparity in this pairing's playstyle.
Regardless of your Xerath ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
