What does Rakan do that makes him good?

Looking at Rakan he seems like he's just a flashy champ. If you wanted better CC there's Leona, Alistar, Blitzcrank, Sion, and Braum. If you wanted healing/shielding there's Soraka, Janna, and Nami (with their own unique forms of CC), if you wanted damage there's pretty much every mage that's not an assassin a pretty viable pick. Having that said I have no clue why you'd ever pick Rakan, he seems like a really weak generalist with his only perk being that he seems legitimately fun.

My opinion

Rakan's laning phase is crap. Literally crap. The only thing you do it throw your Q every now and then and stay behind for the time being.

But he is a teamfight MONSTER Ult hit everyone get them all together real fast and W knock them all up should win the teamfight with ease when you have good AoE damage dealers. Extra fucking points for Orianna that just shreds them when they got knocked up.

He does some of everything, so he is ok in most cases, but especially with Xayah

He does some of everything. The big kicker is his Ult which is amazing.

He has a ridiculous amount of mobility for his ability combination. He's actually really strong in the right hands.

mid players who like making plays will find him to be home away from home. They won't get the kill, but they'll make the enemy feel like he did.
