How to play it

Dodge his cage
Sidestep his Event Horizon stun ring: if you avoid the cage you can nuke him down.
Nuke when cage is down
Play it like the Anivia matchup: dodge the cage, then burst him while it's on cooldown.
Seraph's timing
Seraph's Embrace absorbs his first burst but not his ult: Primordial Burst is an execute the shield won't stop.
Never rely on Seraph's Embrace against his ult: his R is an execute that the shield does not absorb.
