Lissandra

Extreme

Lissandra is so fucking annoying to deal with. Think of it like a Vlad lane but she has higher range, an escape from a gank AND AN ABILITY THAT CAN COMPLETELY FUCK YOU UP IN A TEAMFIGHT. Her ultimate is so goddamn annoying to deal with. Stack up on Tenacity. For this lane, you might have to go for the "safe runes" with Fleet footwork and change the bone plating into unflinching. Go Merc boots ingame after Phage. This way, the tenacity will prevent you from getting stunlocked and you should have a somewhat healthy laning phase. Try to use the movement speed from Fleet Footwork to land a Q and then just back off. You do not want to get hit by her root on her W. Try to predict when she is going to teleport to her Ice Claw and pull her. This will most likely be towards the end when it opens. Just before it opens, pull her so that she is stunned and cant tp to her claw. Try to dodge her ice skill shot thing. The thing with her root is that if she is close enough to root you, then you are close enough to pull her to yourself. So if you just want to do a quick trade instead of all inning, then its worth to auto + w and then do a Q before she teleports away. Like other Ranged champions, she can't quite fight against your pressure in an all in. But she does have the tools necessary to survive your all ins. Try to get a kill or two and wait for her to make mistakes. You should at the very least walk out of this lane while being even with her. Try to work together with your team more and just be more useful in teamfights.

Rakan

Ideal

Darius has IMMENSE synergy with Rakan. If your entire team is feeding but you have a decent Rakan, you can 2v5 the entire enemy team. He is great at catching people out for you, holding people down for you and stunning entire teams long enough for you to get your 5 stacks and start murdering people. Rakan is the BEST teammate champion to have.
