Rakan in my opinion needs Changing. id make him a melee champion without changing his range because he is only ranged for ... reasons.
id take off 10 seconds early and 2 seconds late for his passive.
Remove Xayah's W interaction for better scaling attack speed.
Increase his hp armor and magic resist But probally not without a mass buff to all melee's maybe just his hp then
10 or 12% buff to his q damage and a better scaling for his q base heal.
w early cooldown nerfed by 4 seconds
E early cooldown nerfed by 4 seconds remove the increased range with Xayah And make the former Xayah E range his base dash range or if thats too much at least halfway between the Xayahs and normal E. Remove 5% ap scaling from shield value
Sure the thing is Xayah and Rakan lovers help each other. What i dont like about it is part of Rakan's power is locked in Xayah's Kit but none of Xayah's power is locked in Rakan's kit like if Xayah's W attack speed was halved but it was doubled when effecting rakan. So there is give and take in the game play of their relationship instead of Xayah holding all the keys. If Rakan Uses his Q while xayah has her passive up he also proc's xayah's passive as his damage. If xayah gets changes where she loses power and its put into rakan's kit then id be okay with rakan keeping some power in her kit. and not xayah getting more power through rakan's kit without losing anything like we all know is most likely cause she's an adc and riot fears adc mains cause they are the loudest babies on the boards and reddit when they arent happy compared to any other class.
Also i never liked being locked out of auto attacking during ult. maybe ult can give 1.75 or 3 seconds per target hit for passive instead of 1 second and if rakan has shield up regens 10% of passive shield per person hit?
