Except for rare builds, Xayah deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Samira deals mainly physical damage (85.85%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
An important advantage of Xayah is higher farming statistics (ranked 8th among role champions) (versus 19th for Samira), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.2 versus 2.4) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Xayah player to maintain constant pressure on Samira, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
