Thanks so much to Alienware for supporting off meta content!
Today we have an insane video - about DangerousBoy ADY, a Challenger player who climbed to all the way with Off meta Top lane. I talk about why he is playing Rakan Top, his Funny Speed Strategy and decide - is the pick good?
His account: (name changed) www.op.gg/summoners/kr/%EC%95...
Old account was:

(He keeps changing after we make a video on him lol)

Thanks so much to Alienware for supporting off meta content!
just give me one
Thansk for giving runes, build and skill order on ending screen
Dude , please add a disclaimer of not doing it in Plat. They just sprint it with your info.
How can you find out what he changed his name to? I want to look at some of his matches but the links are broken again.
You've reviewed this guy before, he's the same guy that did taric top.
He’s basically trying to tell us that Top lane is a glorified second support at this point. 😭
can't wait for when this becomes meta
Ily vars also hoping for zaun to be the next gameplay/lore video
I mean, as a toplaner that already made the transition to baby-sitter, that's not surprising to me.
wait this isnt ur video idek who im watching anymore llol
And that support is a glorified second jungler.
Next: How a challenger player got a gf (much needed video)
Getting out of hardstuck silver seems a possibilty than getting a gf
Just get a challenger gf and suffer together
GF? Never heard of it.
Or a BF
Getting challenger on CSS is easier
It feels so much better seeing the build, runes, bans and abilities at the same moment instead of going back and forth through the video :3

@@HappyChimeNoises Ah don't worry, already there :D
Welcome to another ''Why not playing Top lane as Toplaner ,is best strategy for Top lane players'' video !!
This time featuring Rakan !! What will come next ? Maybe perhaps roaming Crit Thresh with Cleanse and Smite.
They do
Smitecrank is bestcrank
isn't cryobeat already playing that?
@@reninparker9822 Cryo doesn't tryhard tho
@@reninparker9822 cryobeat is playing in silver-gold lmao
chime in 2050 : i found a player who actually plays jayce top, you may think this is trolling as jayce doesn't have a consistent roaming tool, but this korean challenger actually plays on the lane and has found an exploit to generate huge amounts of gold by giving the finishing blow on minions
XDDDDDDDDD
He is a very underrated player with a lot of recognition in the KR server now. He’s referred to as Eddy 에디. I’ve been a huge fan of him for some years now.
What do pro players think of him? I would love to hear more
@@HappyChimeNoises they r thinks him "crazy" good means
Im starting to see a trend where top laners realize their lane is too much effort for very little impact, whereas support is the opposite
conclusion: just play support everywhere lmao
Top lane champs are just ... Not good? They take so much effort and resources to become useful and by then bot has died 8 times 2v2.
@@HappyChimeNoises the mroe I read the more I gotta accept the reality that juggernaut Meta is kinda over for good or for bad I do not know
@@HappyChimeNoises i'd say a big contributor is the support items being able to make up for lost gold, even if your gold/min cap is lower, you can spend most of your time roaming or doing something and just go back to a lane every once in a while and get the gold back
Goldgeneration efficiency and the support mythics being goos was also a contributor to sona+seraphine lanes being so popular (and successful) even though both laners didnt leave lane until midgame and even got the cs gold reduction it was still so strong that it didnt even matter
@@iliketea4443 tank meta dying on the oceans floors
This is just Lulu top lane again but more stronger
The quality of the information and the editing of the videos are incredible, thanks for this great contribution to the community. Greetings from Chile
bro you literally didn't watch the video, It was uploaded 3 minutes ago
@@xblunja8332 you hacker bro? Sheez... Imma northVPN my ip add. xd
8:29 very glad you included this section, especially about not buying it at the start of the game. Too many people in that other video with the Yuumi seemed to not even know you can still buy "starter items" on your 8th time being at the fountain.
Yeah I get a lot of comments about 'people being inted by my builds', but its hard to MAKE everyone play perfectly. If you are getting a rakan top in silver they are going to suck, but if they play support - they are also going to suck. Just gotta accept your teammates arent reliable i guess
While I love Rakan and would love to play him in every role if I could, I think a side effect of these support top videos is that this will mostly work in higher elos where you have skilled teammates to support. I can't replicate this in low elo, where people die on repeat, rage and afk their lanes, no one has good game knowledge to even know what to do with the advantages you give them. Sure ya can dive bot and gank them several times, but whose to say they will even know how to dive, or what to do with their lead in silver or gold? It's why it's safer to play "selfish" in low elo and better to play team oriented in high elo......
Personally I wish Riot would randomly add a few support junglers like they did adding qiyana, talon and zed.... I wanna Rakan jungle or thresh jungle but legitimately....
Exactly what have they problem with
Yes Morgana jungle was Hella fun when it was rly good, u had carry potential or could just full support depending on the level of your team
This! Had a rakan try this vs me as Garen in Silver and it didn't end well for the enemy team, defienetely need good teammates to capitalize on Rakans shenanigans,
Play pantheon instead, he does the same thing without relying on his team. He is also still mainly a support for some reason
These last 3 videos convinced me of the fact toplane has such a low impact on the game you literally benefit from abandoning the lane all together.
Love the addition of the tierlist! Would be awesome if you could revisit older videos of yours to place inside the tierlist? Idk how well you can actually do that, considering they're older patches...
Big Surprise coming next week :)
i remember midbeast gragas vid on this guy, this was the one the really made me think about how top lane doesn't matter and how riot may try to make it matter more.
Always look forward to your videos, Chime. Thanks for putting out amazing content as always! Look forward to watching the rest of this Rakan top 👀
P.S. Dan posted the direct link in Discord so I didn't have to wait 10 minutes for YT to refresh properly and put the video on your channel
Take care, Chime! Can't wait for game night tomorrow
Congrats on 150k man well deserved!
I just watched your assassin rakan mid video 2 days ago and have been loving ap rakan mid, seeing this makes me really excited for new off meta rakan, thanks for making these videos it really adds more enjoyment to the game for me!
nice vid as always :) I like the part about realizing that even the challenger player is human, takes risks, and makes mistakes-- very nice to hear
YEYYYY congrats bro 150K is pretty awesome! i was here since 10000, progress!
As a Rakan main, I feel so happy to see people playing it in other lanes with crazy playstyles.
I was playing rakan top in early s11 and played him with everfrost.(normals ofc)
I won like 60% of my lanes but we lose.
Even if i lose lane i dont lose that hard.
This vid showed me how rakan REALLY is played top lmao.
Actually a cool strategy, i have been playing Rakan top S10 onhit for a while and was quite happy with the champ but since the item rework i wasnt able to get a good working build. Might give this a try sometime to revive my rakan top days :D
Please keep coming out with these videos. I love winning my games because everyone thinks they can do this after!
I remember get absolutely steamrolled by a Rakan top a few years back and then I became a believer. Every game after, I went full nuclear Rakan and have become an ascended.
I've been seeing this crazy players not commiting to their lanes and roaming all the game, even I have played Trind mid with smite, mess with the jng and win, so maybe we are playing this game wrong all along, maybe we need to play two junglers instead, one with the jngle item and the other one with the support item and just dedicated to roaming
One pure jungle, one jungle sp hybrid, one pure sp. People might not like it, but this is peak Riot's 200yrs of gameplay exp at this point. It's kinda capped out
The Meta is only the meta till it isn't. People trying new things is healthy and Riot trying to hardcore enforce it (I am assuming for esports moolah) isn't
Love how you showed all the important information at the end its really usefull.

Slight issue if you want to use this to climb, you kind of rely on your teammates to actually get turrets and finish the game. Low and even mid-elo players are surprisingly bad at getting this stuff done. Rakan is amazing in mid-late game team fights and scales surprisingly well, but you will never be able to take turrets solo. It's not a deal breaker, since the enemy team is just as bad, but it means that you'll get into a lot of games that drag on for much longer than they should. This is another reason why Yuumi top is better. due to her insane scaling she benefits a lot from the longer game times in lower elo.
Congrats on the Alienware pc, that's pretty awesome bro, keep up the awesome content!
I legit am climbing with Yuumi top since your video dropped. Gonna try Rakan now
It's funny to think that this could also work really well in the pocket edition of league
Thanks. I'm gonna try this style with my Singed
Woahh chill my guy you've been pumping out vids wayyy more than usual
As a Rakan main I actually bring predator to roam and the influence you can have is so good, just have to be careful to keep your adc alive at the same time. It's so fun!
In the old days there's usually two people on top a 2v2 lane, now there's 1v1 and from the recent top support videos I suspect in the future top gonna be an 0v0 lane
That's what we need! He's a hero for me!
Also, love seeing ghost enjoyers ;)
As a Lillia main I feel emotionally identified with this style of teamfighting. 10:32 in particular touched my soul.
Have been watching Midbeasts VOD reviews of this guy; Ady is an absolute golden god.
love me some midbeast
Straight up banger as always king 👑
i like how top lane is such a shit role that people actively avoid laning and just roam
Says a lot about the state of top Lane where smite Janna and this roaming rakan can both leave Lane for 20 minutes at the highest level of Challenger and still hold a chance at winning the game.
with all these amazing, strange, but beautifully working, hundreds of off-meta builds, I am sure that all these amazing builds will become meta and something like rakan support is gonna become off meta and people are gonna say that rakan support = troll xD
Keep up the great work !!! We all love these off-meta builds!!! And most of all congrats on 150k!!!!!!!!!!!
I knew you would make this after seeing the taric top
Remember back in the day before Hunter's Machete where the jungler was pretty much a second support? We're pretty much turning another role into a second support very slowly.
Happy, GREAT videos, can we see another neeko vid ;-; maybe a jungle neeko perhaps?
Thank you, always appreciate kind comments. The more views we get the more toxicity I receive so thanks for this.
I have one special neeko saved :)
@@HappyChimeNoises Thanks for the response! I eagerly await the next neeko one, she's my main champion. She has so much diversity in usage. Quick question, has there ever been a kalista video?
@@distempered6444 Not yet!
@@HappyChimeNoises I appreciate the response :), I'm also suprised there isn't a kindred video, I know a person plays kindred mid and does pretty well on it. They are a great champion design wise. I look forward to the next one! :)
@@distempered6444 Search adc kindred :)
Ah yes the taric top. Now we have rakan top! Playing him damage mid was fun but didn't consider top. Roaming too. Back at it again a banger of a video! I love these off meta picks. Spices up the game rather than repeating the same ol meta champs.
wow!!
炸魚大隊長馬上來試試
This takes my Rakan top strategy to ANOTHER LEVEL!
had one in my last game in enemy team. he inted hard. thanks for the freelo
You uploaded after i watch a rakan top gameplay
I just won with that pick 3 rounds in a raw with a friend, thank you dude
Honestly that makes a lot of sense that ensuring your allies get ahead or just not feed instead of focusing on yourself makes it more likely for you to win.
This man sees movement speed and his neurons go nuts. I respect that mindset
Kinda funny to see these dota meta things coming into league. I've been seeing a lot of non traditional laners maining the "roam" position lately; won't be surprised if this continues to be the trend moving forward
this is one of the Best channel on CZcams
Chime listen to me this past week i started theory crafting an offmeta pick fiddle top with glacial augment built, i still in it but i thing this can be a thing, just like the maokai mid fiddle can go tank with winter aproach and abisal mask You can go ap like a normal fiddle.
PD: i really like your conten and like to see you are getting sponsored by alienware and all of this amazing aps keeo it going ;)
Nice video!
damn korean top lane is like a gold mine for this guy and i love it
His summoners gives me season 1 flashbacks
I saw this strategy in silver about six months ago, never thought it would be good.
Yes! Another off meta pick for a support character! So excited to scare my friends with this haha
Oh a challenger. Weve only seen off meta masters so its about time we see one at the chall level
1:33 Akshan mains joined the chat
Oh man i would love to get this pc!
I hope he also covers a Grandmaster Lulu. Lulu main here and I need inspiration to go off-meta
Another beautiful thumbnail :3
Really interested if there is a player that plays Alistar in an unconventional lane like top or mid, great video nonetheless!
This man is speedrunning toplane. Leaving before the kill is even landed to the next gank
I love Rakan, and I LOVE off-meta rakan in every form. Rakan Jungle next?
Honestly, this strategy will only work in high elo since noone plays split-pushers there. If in low elo, people actually play splitters like Yorick and would end the game while ur picking kills
Well besides Camille
Any Roaming top doesnt work consistent in platin even if you hard win early they will int away the win.
@@blastedsnake camille has dogshit waveclear
@@wediscoit1989 Tiamat.
Mainly bc korean mainly play for early so just win early is enough to win 80% of the game.
Im currently 80% wr with rakan Top :D thanks buddy
River shen reword looking sick
I used to do Rakan top all the time then they needed him into the ground but since it's viable again 😍
YES RAKAN TOP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! also can u do the kindred mid player OwO
Yo I think Mid Beast already did a vid on this he also does Taric Gragas and Gali o
How do u keep up with 1 video every 4-5 days with this great quality on every single one of them?
I care about LoL content unlike most youtubers who are doing it for money. I don't think it's fair to wase 30 minutes of viewers time every day with some crappy gameplay video. I want to give you a 10 minute video packed full of as much info as I can to give viewers value.
I like giving people fun stuff to try and proving that meta is irrelevant even in high ranks
@@HappyChimeNoises Thank for caring for us dude, keep up the good work, hope u get as much as u deserve :)
I feel like shen and pantheon are ideal counters to these roam strategies. Their massive ults are perfect for making a bigger impact and counter gank to the roams and with better cs and Laning phases they're just perfect for beating these cheese roam picks
Pantheon is a trash champ but Shen would beat this pretty well. Only problem is that Shen has horrendous waveclear
@@biggiecheese2004 horrdenous vs zero though? shen can just take tp +ghost now he can farm cs the whole time and block rakans ganks
@@redloopy this rakan doesn't farm, that's the point. Shen can only push waves with autos and empowered autos so rakan can literally w the casters and just afk run on the map and shen will never get a turret if he's going full tank. if he builds for split then you're already denying his ult potential since he wants to be in a sidelane all game at that point and not tping to allies
HappyChimeNoises is actually cute lol
Great video as usual
With so many off meta top laners having positive otucome it is now likely to be proven that top lane does not contribute on the game. (P.S. just my take)
Korean players: *exist*
Happychimenoises: 'I was born for this'
I play pantheon mostly top, which is an early game champ that can easily match his roams with ult. My other go to pick is yorick, which can get inhib insanely fast if enemy decide to roam all game. So I was like does this actually work? Perhaps against all the other toplaners it perhaps does xD
i main rakan but i never thought of playing him top lane i'll give this a try
Dangerous Boy Ady is a legend among mere mortals
I want to see this in pro play so badly, it would be so interesting to watch
All these support tops work because enemy teams don't know how to defend and punish them. It could work once or twice as a cheese to reverse a series but the answers in a coordinated environment are kind of apparent. Defend the tower dives and not feed. That's all. Then win by gold advantage
Korean soloq challengers don't know their stuff? I doubt it
You and midbeast need to collab at this point
I accidentally found this strategy the other day after getting filled to top and deciding to play Rakan, of course I wasn’t using optimal runes but it’s still incredibly potent.
As i was watching, I thought this to myself: how cool would it be if an ezrael player were to ult at a low hp newbie. And at the same time, that newbie was testing stop watch and just activate stop watch as soon as ezrael ult came.
I'm one tricking Taliyah in Ranked this year and I currently have about a 73% winrate. I'm in Bronze rn and have never been higher then Silver, so I'm proud of that winrate. Oh, and I've played mostly Taliyah APC (67% winrate), some Jungle (75% winrate), and a little bit of Support (100% winrate, but only 1 game this season so far).
If you talk about zeri, can you highlight all her damage being magic Damage and that maybe riot is pushing another hybrid adc like kaisa?
top lane has gotten so bad we dont need top laners anymore lol. Love the vids bro
Thank you, always appreciate kind comments. The more views we get the more toxicity I receive so thanks for this
These last 4 videos showed how top was such a role with less to no impact
joey's world tour has a great channel for building pc's
I used to do Rakan mid, but top is also kinda nutty.
At that point Riot should do something about top lane.I'm not gonna be surprised if next video is about challenger Leona top.
what this video teaches me is that I can go off-meta and still do well (in theory)
will there be a nother taric top video?.. pls
This Guy is a mechanical god as well
gonna do a build with him in wild rift lmao
1:00 oh my.
Thanks for this strategies, a few days in a ranked on plat IV the enemy went janna smite top, and we won because i warded and camped bot, nice!
great adaptation
@@HappyChimeNoises tbh i checked his match history and he won 3-4 games with janna top, but sometimes they int, thanks for the free lp haha
YES
5:53 ok but that gathering storm is kinda troll
