I think Riot should help out our boy Rakan. After they nerfed his w, pretty much anyone above silver can just walk out of it without any consequences. It also doesn't help that when Rakan ults, he could be practically touching somebody but they don't get charmed. I think they should help make his engages a little better, at least fix his w.
Please help out our bird boy, he didn't deserve to be treated like this. ;-;
SuicidePlank2 votesYou mean a champ having massive CC, basically a Malphite Ult as a normal Abilty, Sustain, a shield and tons of escapes shouldn't be adjusted?
Rákàn1 votesA Malphite ult as a normal ability? You're pretty much saying that every knockup that can hit more than one person in a fight is like a Malphite ult. And massive cc? He has two cc abilities, Leona has cc on every ability. Why would they nerf Rakan's w when they could just nerf Leona's whole kit? Since they nerfed his w, it is much harder to hit cause people can just walk out of it with no problems. They don't even need to use a dash or blink if they have one, they can just click outside of the circle and they'll be fine. Seems pretty unresonable when they nerf Rakan's only form of engagement. His ult is supposed to be used after the w but what's the point of the ult if you can't land the w in the first place?

Leona has to go in and doesn't get out. A good Rakan can engage and disengage without taking any risks.

Leona also doesn't have cc on every ability. Her W isn't cc.
The Ecdysiast2 votesI'd like some actual evidence for, "when Rakan ults, he could be practically touching somebody but they don't get charmed."
'Cause if so, it's a bug.
Rákàn1 votesIt's not a bug at all, it's not even rare. You and your laner could be engaging on the enemies, but when you go to ult, you'll be running behind them at such a close distance that if it were real life, you could practically smell them. It's the equivalent of running behind someone in a race, practically neck and neck. This has happened to many other people that play Rakan as well, so this isn't even a biased answer.

Give me a video clip. Otherwise I can just assume you somehow aren't used to the camera angle despite being level 177.
