How to play Rakan
Rakan is a support champion. He excels at engaging with his heavy crowd control abilities and getting out with his high mobility. Rakan has a great level 3 power spike, being able to jump in with Grand Entrance and then dash out after shielding his teammate with Battle Dance. In the late game, Rakan uses that mobility to get a huge team fight The Quickness to charm the whole enemy team. When paired with Xayah in the bot lane, Rakan's passive and Battle Dance get enhanced. You can recall with Xayah at any point and if you shield Xayah, she gets a stronger shield compared to everyone else on your team. This makes Xayah and Rakan a perfect bot lane combo.
Rakan Build Breakdown
Rakan does amazing with tank/support items that can help him stay alive whilst going into the enemies with his crowd control. Yordle Trap is a strong first item. Rakan can displace the movement of champions with The Quickness, allowing him to reduce the enemy's armor and magic resist and have the potential to gain gold for your team. Zeke's Convergence is another great item for Rakan. This item will slow and damage nearby enemies when you use his ultimate giving you more carry potential.
With runes, we have the following:
With Rakan's Combo, when he dashes in with Grand Entrance, he can proc Glacial Augment to reduce the enemies damage and slow in an area.
Rakan's Grand Entrance and The Quickness can immobilize enemies, giving him a shield to help him take more damage when going all-in.
This row depends on your lane matchup. Bone Plating is a solid rune in a melee matchup that can do a lot of burst damage.
Second Wind is excellent in poke lanes, which is good for Rakan as he suffers in these matchups.
Overgrowth's extra health will help Rakan survive longer, which is important when playing as a front-line tank for your team.
When vs Crowd Control, Perseverance works great with Rakan, giving him more tank stats to survive.
Rakan is one of the best engage champions in the game with multiple abilities being able to win a game in a matter of seconds. Transcendence's ability haste means Rakan can use his abilities more often to go for game-changing plays.
For summoner spells, Flash is a must on most champions. It works really well on Rakan, allowing you to Flash in and charm the whole team with your Ultimate or knock everyone up with Grand Entrance. Ignite is a nice way to get that extra little bit of damage with Rakan when he is jumping in on the enemy team to try and 'secure' the kill!
Early Game
Rakan can struggle against ranged champions early on especially at level 1. The best thing to do is stay safe at level 1, then when you hit level 2/3 you can use Grand Entrance on the enemies to try and get a good trade or maybe even potentially get an early kill. Once you hit level 5 and get The Quickness, you can engage at any point (just make sure your team is ready to go in with you). Rakan also has great roaming potential because of his amazing crowd control. You can go to mid lane and help your team out by trying to get an advantage or maybe even a kill on the enemy mid laner.
Late Game
It's really important as a support to stay with your team! Your job is to try and get your team grouped up for a big 5 vs 5 team fight, this where you thrive. If you can get a huge combo off on the enemy team or an important target, your team can follow up and kill everyone. If this is not possible, the best option you have is to stick by your AD Carry (Dragon Lane Champion). The AD Carry in your team is one of the main damage sources and keeping he/her alive is really important! Use your Battle Dance and healing from Gleaming Quill to keep your AD alive.
Conclusion
Overall Rakan is a super fun champion to play! If you like being at the forefront of engages and having lots of crowd control whilst also being super mobile to stay alive then Rakan is the champion for you!
