Learn how to Rakan counter with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
CC Rakan during his W or E dash to cancel his mobility — both abilities are interrupted by any immobilizing effect, leaving him vulnerable and out of position.
Lane Phase Team Fight
Stay away from your lane partner against Rakan — positioning on opposite sides of the lane prevents him from engaging on both of you with his W+E combo.
Basic Lane Phase
Punish aggressively when Rakan misses his W — without Grand Entrance, he has no engage tool and limited defensive options for a significant period.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Spread apart in teamfights when Rakan has his ultimate — his charm can only affect each enemy once, so spacing prevents him from disrupting your entire team.
Basic Team Fight
Respect Rakan's level 1-2 all-in potential — he often takes W first and looks for early engages that can force out summoner spells, especially against utility supports.
Basic Lane Phase
Focus Rakan immediately when he uses his ultimate — CC and burst him before he can weave through your team charming multiple members.
Team Fight
Avoid fighting in jungle choke points when Rakan has his ultimate available — tight spaces make it easier for him to charm multiple team members.
Team Fight Late Game
Place Control Wards in river and jungle entrances when Rakan buys Mobility Boots — this helps track his increased roaming potential and prevents surprise engages in other lanes.
Lane Phase
Trade aggressively when Rakan's E is on cooldown — without his shield dash, he can't quickly retreat to allies and becomes vulnerable to focused damage.
Advanced Lane Phase Skirmish
