Tips & Tricks

  • 1.Q (Arcanopulse) range increases with charge time — charge behind minions to poke safely in lane.
  • 2.Passive (Mana Surge) restores mana on auto attacks; weave autos between spells to sustain mana.
  • 3.E (Shocking Orb) stuns longer at max range — throw it from far away for a long-duration stun.
  • 4.R (Rite of the Arcane) fires multiple long-range blasts; use it to snipe low-HP enemies from safety.
  • 5.Xerath is immobile; ward flanks and position far back, relying on max range to deal damage safely.
