Support / Catcher
Beginner Rule
Respect Rakan's engage range — it's often much longer than it appears.
Rakan is a highly mobile support who excels at starting fights and creating picks. He wants to engage with Grand Entrance (W) before charming enemies with The Quickness (R). Many beginners underestimate how far Rakan can engage when using allied champions as mobility tools.
Level 2 – Strong engage combo available.
Level 6 – Ultimate adds powerful teamfight initiation.
Mid Game – Excels at creating picks and skirmishes.
