Damage doesn't equal wins: Xerath outputs more damage (732 vs 204/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup.

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.
The magic damage that Xerath deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Milio deals primarily magic damage (79.66%), additional magic resistance may be required.
An important advantage of Xerath is superior vision control (ranked 7th among supports) (versus 18th for Milio), which provides better map control and safety for the team in important map areas. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (3.7 versus 2.6) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Xerath player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Milio player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.
