Rakan Support Guide | Patch 26.17

Rakan shines as a high-mobility support with unmatched engage potential and crowd control. His 50.8% win rate in Patch 16.3 proves he’s a meta-viable pick for ranked play. Master his charm to disrupt enemies and protect allies.

How to play Rakan?

Rakan thrives in chaotic skirmishes where his mobility and crowd control shine. Early game, focus on landing your Q (Grand Entrance) to secure kills or assists, using your passive (Fey Feathers) to sustain through poke. Mid-game, prioritize vision control and setting up plays with your E (Rocket Grab) to chain CC onto priority targets. Late game, Rakan’s ultimate (The Quickness) becomes a game-changer, offering a speed boost and invulnerability to dive onto backlines or peel for your ADC. Positioning is key—stay near your carry but be ready to rotate for picks or saves.

💡 Tips for Rakan

• 1.Use Q (Grand Entrance) to engage or disengage—its short cooldown makes it a reliable tool for flanks or escapes.
• 2.Save your E (Rocket Grab) for catching out priority targets like assassins or ADC, but don’t spam it—it has a long cooldown.
• 3.Your W (Redeploy) can be used to reposition after a fight or to dodge skillshots, so always keep it charged.
• 4.Prioritize vision control with Control Wards and Sweeper to set up picks with your team.
• 5.Coordinate with your ADC to time your ultimate (The Quickness) for optimal engage or disengage moments in teamfights.
