Rakan sucked? Rakan's been getting picked in pro play...

49% win rate in solo queue with a solid pick rate. http://www.gamesoflegends.com/champion/stats.php?id=136&season=ALL&tournament=ALL 215 picked games since his release, and 248 bans in pro play. Fun characteristic making him more enjoyable to play.

How did he suck?

his pre 6 engage and disengage are both pretty weak. The terrain is delayed, and the slow isn't enough CC. Could be useful against all-in lanes since he can become immune to CC and has a lot of damage, but only as a counter and not someone who can initiate, at least until level 6.

That said, his passive may let him upgrade relic shield in lane, which will give a pretty substantial sustain advantage. I think he might be good with a mage bot though, since most marksmen can't make use of the brittle effect.

Think he is primarily a top laner, but could be a gimicky support.

Feel it might be akin to playing ivern in the support role. Kinda sorta works in a way I guess, but you really want gold so you can get stuff.

(Also rakan is pretty fun and can be super effective if you're good at him. Overall winrate may never have been crazy, but the top rakans were floating around 60% winrate for awhile, haven't checked recently.)

Not at all his q e combo is so delayed you would kill yourself diving into 2 people along with his damage being terrible without hitting with knockup
