Guide to Synergizing Xerath and Rammus

Tips for Playing as Xerath with Rammus

If you stun an enemy with Shocking Orb, follow up with a guaranteed center hit on Eye of Destruction.

It's easier to land Arcanopulse on an enemy when they're moving toward or away from you, rather than side to side.

Eye of Destruction will make landing Arcanopulse easier as the target will be slowed.

Advice to Understand How Rammus Will Play

Powerball can be used as an effective escape mechanism.

Tremors and Defensive Ball Curl can be used late in the game to obliterate towers. If you're bogged down in a team fight, it is often valuable to break off and attack the buildings.

Using taunt on a champion by your tower can cause the tower to attack your enemy.
