Sometimes it only takes 1 pro game for Riot to realize how much they goofed.

C9 never should have let them have Xayah and Rakan on the same team. That's obvious. I think they just got a little cocky and didn't think that OP combo was going to beat them. After all, CLG almost lost with it anyways, but at least RIOT can now see how much they goofed with those champs, and we may finally get the much needed nerfs. A cross map unflashable point and click permastun is a little op to say the least... and to combo it with the Orianna is just stupid. Mark my words, Rakan nerfs incoming. I've been begging them to nerf that champ since his release... and maybe now they'll understand XD Thank you for showing them how OP it is Aphromoo. Thank you for dealing us poor soloque players the nerf.

Yet, even Phreak said that he has yet to see a good Rakan player.

They had the synergy, and the synergy is what let them win. It's like the old Jarvan/Gnar combo, or Orianna + (insert initiation champ here) combo.

Aphro made Rakan look OP, but I can safely say that Rakan isn't that strong.

The thing is yes, I do think Rakan needs a nerf and so does Xayah but at the same time tho, the more OP Champions there are the better in Riot's mind. They want champions to all be OP to the point of making the games in both LCS and solo Q be faster and quicker. Do I think Rakan will be nerfed to a point of being = to both parties the Rakan and the player that's facing Rakan, No, I don't.

Neither really need nerfs though. They're both balanced. Meddler stated he's buffing Rakan though (E CD) and nerfing Xayah (being able to auto during Q so she can't just Q-AA-E for root and the W number of pellets or whatever). IDK.
