Playing as Xerath

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Charge Arcanopulse to poke from range

    Charge Arcanopulse (Q) to poke from long range: its range grows with the charge, but you slow down by up to 50% in the meantime.

  2. Slow before your Arcanopulse

    Slow your target with Eye of Destruction (W) before Arcanopulse (Q): the center of the zone slows the most, and a slowed target dodges poorly.

  3. Stun, then center your Eye

    Land Shocking Orb (E), then center Eye of Destruction (W) on the target: stunned, they can't dodge it, and the center slows the most.

  4. Finish from long range with your ult

    Cast Rite of the Arcane (R) to finish a fleeing target or support a distant fight: your shots reach 5000 range, with bonus damage per champion hit.

Playing against Twisted Fate

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Back off when he shuffles his cards

    Step out of his attack range when he shuffles his cards with Pick a Card (W): if he locks in the Gold Card, his next auto stuns you.

  2. Engage after his Gold Card

    If you can engage, go in right after his Gold Card: without Pick a Card (W), he has no other stun and no dash to escape.

  3. Play safe when he casts his ult

    As soon as he casts Destiny (R), move closer to your tower if you're low: he sees every champion on your team for 6 to 10 seconds and can teleport to you.

  4. Ping as soon as he disappears

    Ping your team as soon as he leaves your vision: Destiny (R) takes him up to 5500 range away, which lets him gank a nearby lane.
