I already tested the new version on PBE (some time ago)

Ofc just my opinion

Q

- Increased Manacost

- +100 Max Range

- Now cripples your movement if you try to use it on max range -35% Slow aslong you channel

- 10% Higher AP Rotation

- Less Damage at max range cuz you have to channel 2 sec for max range = Q CD at higher range = 9-7 instead of 7-5 as stated in tooltip

The new passiv does give you more mana BUT you have to autoattack = 550 Range = Riot is creating some counterplay for the enemy compared to old xerath who was able to sit far behind and waveclear from 1.3k range

W

I prefer the old one ... Press W cast spells and relocate with increased movespeed + Old Xerath 40% Mpen New Xerath 20%

Less Damage against Tanks + Less Mobility

E

- 40% AP Rotation

- Higher CD +3 Sec LvL 1 +1 Sec LvL 5

Well the reduced damage is no Prob cuz we get a fourth Damage spell with W

R

- MEGA RANGE the range is amazing BUT

- -60% AP Rotation + you have to land 4 Spells instead of just 3

- +70sec CD on LvL 1 + 60sec CD on LvL 3 ... sry but i loved xerath cuz of his low CD Ultimate
