Hi! I got sad from xerath skins not coming since...uhm...so much time, so i thought i could give some tip!

Dark Star Xerath: there's even a wonderful concept (https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/skin-champion-concepts/JAgAUXGU-skin-idea-dark-star-xerath?show=flat) made by SlownD. Dark themes suit xerath particulalry well, due to his personality and story, and shooting deep space energy would fit him like a ring;

Archlight Xerath: one of the most evil characters in LoL trying to redeem himself? White and gold armor, and plummeting dark forces shooting blinding light arcanopulses, or purging them from the skies with celestial arcan barrages;

Harrowing/Haunted Xerath: i mean, his armor is a sarcophagus, just make it creepier with some dark material/monstrous insertions, slap some green/light blue spooky particles, let him unleash his spooky magic while ulting, et voilà, you just found a skin for the next harrowing!

Mecha Xerath: i just need a good mechanical/robotic alternative to Battlecast Xerath. Armor transforms as he casts his spells (to each spell his form) and returns normal after the cast: it'd be so cool to see him transforms while comboing. Orange/yellow particles, and you're good to go.

Void Xerath: this one may be a little bit trickier, but with the organic armor, and tendons or alikes keeping it in place, Xerath should still look quite Void-y while casting purple colored spells!

An ascended Xerath skin would be top of the top, however i don't have any solid concept to go from =/

Hope you liked the ideas, i'd love to discuss them so don't hesitate to let me know your ideas!

Edit: Battleboss Xerath: like seriously, already playing against xerath feels like a boss battle, where you got to close on him dodging everything he throws at you. he was even the boss in ascension mode, how about that!

great ideas! I can definitley see dark star/arc light Not sure about void as it'd pretty much just turn everything purple for him mecha might be hard to do, but It could work.

Here's my concept art for Program Xerath. I really think Xerath needs an actual tech skin (not whatever Battlecast is).

Wouldn't Arclight look too similar to the Sand one (not sure if he's Guardian of the Sands or Risen)?
