Guide to Synergizing Rammus and Xerath

Tips for Playing as Rammus with Xerath

Powerball can be used as an effective escape mechanism.

Tremors and Defensive Ball Curl can be used late in the game to obliterate towers. If you're bogged down in a team fight, it is often valuable to break off and attack the buildings.

Using taunt on a champion by your tower can cause the tower to attack your enemy.

Advice to Understand How Xerath Will Play

If you stun an enemy with Shocking Orb, follow up with a guaranteed center hit on Eye of Destruction.

It's easier to land Arcanopulse on an enemy when they're moving toward or away from you, rather than side to side.

Eye of Destruction will make landing Arcanopulse easier as the target will be slowed.

Overall, Rammus sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Xerath. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Xerath.
