He is now something vastly different - a being of writhing arcane energy. Having emerged from millennia-spanning imprisonment, he is now ready to unleash his power upon Runeterra, and utterly destroy any who oppose him.

[tip_playing_against] => * Xerath's range can be intimidating, but most champions who close distance with him can trade favorably. * Xerath takes a long time to engage Rite of the Arcane. Watch for his spellcast animation and start dodging. * Banshee's Veil will make it much harder for Xerath to land Shocking Orb on you.
