Introduction

Hi, I am Valleysword2k. I currently have become addicted to playing Rakan, and was disappointed with the lack of good guides.

Pros / Cons

Pros:

High Mobility
A Lot Of CC
Team Fighting God
Good Early Game At Level 3
Amazing Alongside Xayah (<3)

Cons:

Low Damage Output
Bad Fighter When By Himself
E Is Pretty Bad With Anyone Other Than Xayah
Q Is Hard To Land On Champs In Early Game

Spells

I prefer to take exhaust over ignite because i am a support, not a f*ckin AP carry. The ignite may be able to help "secure" kills, but i believe the exhaust is much more effective, even at later levels. It is also possible to take TP, but Rakan already has a lot of movement speed, so it is a bit pointless at later levels when you are moving at mach 5 down lane.

Skill Sequence

I personally prefer to take my W first over my E. I feel like the shield on his E is very minimal and disappointing. Not to mention, without xayah, you have such a short jumping distance. I take Courage of the Colossus with my W so that i can immediately tank the incoming damage after charging the enemy.

Masteries

I prefer to get the Courage of the Colossus with my W so that i can immediately tank the incoming damage after charging the enemy. If you prefer to max your E second, i would drop COTC and max cunning to take Windspeaker's Blessing. I just think the shield is way too weak to be worth the keystone.
