Rakan
As mercurial as he is charming, Rakan is an infamous vastayan troublemaker and the greatest battle-dancer in Lhotlan tribal history. To the humans of the Ionian highlands, his name has long been synonymous with wild festivals, uncontrollable parties, and anarchic music. Few would suspect this energetic, traveling showman is also partner to the rebel Xayah, and is dedicated to her cause.

Rakan builds
View all builds →From the guide «Rakan Guide»
The default path: Moonstone Renewer, Echoes of Helia and Imperial Mandate give the health, ability power and mana regeneration this class relies on. Pick it when you have no reason to adapt. Built from Riot's item tags and the champion's class; Riot publishes no build statistics.
All-in on damage: Shadowflame, Void Staff and Bloodletter's Curse stack ability power, magic penetration and health. Choose it when you're ahead or the enemy team is fragile — it gives up safety for kill pressure.
Keeps enough damage while adding health, magic resist and armor through Locket of the Iron Solari, Hollow Radiance and Knight's Vow. Choose it against dive, assassins or a lane you can't win.
Built to protect your team: Mikael's Blessing, Shurelya's Battlesong and Moonstone Renewer. Choose it when your carries need peel more than they need your damage.
