Tips to maximize your impact

Line your soldiers up on the wave
Place your Arise! (W) soldiers so their spear thrust goes through the wave and your opponent: it hits every enemy in a line.
Dash to a soldier with a clear path
To escape, cast Shifting Sands (E) toward a soldier behind you: the spell shields you, but stops on the first enemy champion in its path.
Get behind them before your R
To get behind your target, cast Conquering Sands (Q) during the Shifting Sands (E) dash to a soldier. Emperor's Divide (R) then knocks them back toward your team.
Protect your team with your wall
Cast Emperor's Divide (R) between your team and those charging at it: the soldiers knock them back, then stay as a wall that blocks the way.

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

Stay away from his soldiers
Stay out of range of his soldiers, not just of him: each Arise! (W) soldier attacks nearby enemies in his place.
Play hard before he hits 6
Play hard before he hits level 6: without Emperor's Divide (R), he can't knock you back, and Shifting Sands (E), his only dash, has a 22 to 16 second cooldown.
Spread out from your allies
When he has Emperor's Divide (R), spread out from your allies: the soldier wall knocks back every enemy across its width, then blocks the way.
