About Rakan

Class: Support
Primary lane: Support

Why this matchup plays out this way

Rakan is a support, and supports tend to have well-known strengths and blind spots that hold up regardless of the current patch. Picking a champion from a class that naturally answers supports gives you a structural edge before either of you has even loaded into the game.
