I am unleashed...
Riot has officially announced their new hero, Xerath, the Magus Ascendant. His skillset is as follows:
Ascended Form (Passive): Xerath feeds on arcane power, making him increasingly resilient to physical harm. He converts a percentage of his Ability Power into Armor.
Arcanopulse: Fires a long-range beam of energy, dealing magic damage to all targets hit.
Locus of Power: Xerath anchors himself to source of magical power, increasing the range of all spells and granting him bonus % Magic Penetration. Although he is immobilized while Locus of Power is active, his movement speed increases upon disabling the ability.
Mage Chains: Deals magic damage to an enemy and marks them with Unstable Magic. The next spell Xerath strikes this enemy with stuns them.
Arcane Barrage: Calls down a blast of arcane energy, dealing magic damage to all enemies in an area. May be cast up to three times before going on cooldown.

Seems to me like he'll be a long-range skillshot oriented champion. Depending on his passive ratios, we might very well see a meta-game changing champion if people start playing him bot vs the AD Carries, or as a counter to Garen/Irelia top.
