    ABOUT ME: What's up guys my name Trevor but most people know me as Nasteey. In the real world I'm just a 21 year old kid attending college, studying communications, and trying to make it in the world. Online I'm a former challenger player, support main, and content creator trying to grow in the League of Legends community on Twitch and CZcams. I provide in-depth advice including champion guides, key tips and tricks, coaching videos, and game analysis, just to name a few. I upload on a fairly inconsistent schedule due to real life issues and school but try my hardest to pump out content through it all. With that being said, I would like to briefly thank each and every single one of you for your patience and continued support. It means the world to me.

    I think Ardent is pretty good on him when you adc can snowball early on. I prefer to build it especially in situations where im more like a Protective Engager and not a full team fight leading bird.
    Edit: Also one tip, if I ever have to play against Poke Supp, I skill Q and try to heal myself and specially bmy adc back up a bit. I think it's makes the landing phase much more comfortable.

    maxing w doesn't give you as much cdr on that spell as maxing q would, and by maxing q you'll be able to heal a lot more mid to late game (plus your heal items), Not only does Q E W max order give you 2-3 sec cooldown heals but also some what good dmg.

  • @crudesketch8051
    @crudesketch8051 Před 4 lety

    I personally prefer Font of Life over Demolish. Helps sustain the team during engages especially with Revitalize, plus it procs Ardent Censer. Also I go Transcendence and Gathering Storm if I want to go aggressive since all his abilities scale on AP. Transcendence gives so much extra AP because of the itemization on Rakan capping the CDR roof. This is why I go for Ionian boots, gives reduced summoners plus a good chunk of CDR. Only downside of this is the very snowball reliant playstyle you need to have, plus if your adc can't do their job during laning phase, you're basically useless.

    I just started playing Rakan but considering his kit, hard engages and heavy cc, wouldnt font of life be better for him? 3 of his abilities cc the enemy in some way, so font of life + revitalize would give slightly better sustain to the adc early game
    why do you think demolish is better for him?

    • @santinerino624
      @santinerino624 Před 4 lety

      i think you should only take demolish if you are sure that you can win lane. If you have a lane dominant matchup then demolish is really good for getting plates and an early first turret. If you have a matchup where you need to be more passive then dont take demolish

    The q>e>w by pros is mostly becasue thats the pro scene.
    This gives them:
    1. Better team comp, which usually already have great engage, thus allowing Rakan to be great followup.
    (where i think he is the best)
    2. Due to communication, they can make better, more efficient plays.
    Early in laning phase, pros dont need 2 w in a fight, cus enemy is usally dead after 1st.
    I have played q>e>w and now as i changed to w, it gives a lot of freedom.

    • @dr_birb
      @dr_birb Před 4 lety

      Also, celerity is a joke rune, its useless af.
      Tanscendence + cdr boots + gathering storm makes are very good late game due to his highest scaling of all enchanters.
      If u dont want late, get either precision tree with tenacity and triumph or domination with lethality on dash/eyeballs collection with ult cdr.

      @danielkruger7589 Před 4 lety

      I think that even for solo queue, Q>E>W has more potential, it's just more punishing, since you can't use your W to get out after a bad engage. Would also like to add that I personally prefer Presence of Mind when going precision second, since I honestly find myself running out of mana at times in games where I actually need to build almost full tank. Also, I think Ghost Poro is a slightly better choice than Sudden Impact, but I guess that's personal preference^^

    • @marigabric6599
      @marigabric6599 Před 4 lety

      I mean, my current fave build is actualy ap. You get your regular support item, then you rush your boots for mobility, ardent + ludens + lich bane in that order and then the last item what you fancy, if you play long enough. Depending on how tanky or not tanky you are, you can easily take a 1/3 of every enemy's health bar if you land a good W. If you know how to play the macro game and know where to position yourself, you can become an absolute monster with AP Rakan. It can be a hit or miss sometimes, but it's really fun because you can bully people once you get to mid and late game

    • @danielkruger7589
      @danielkruger7589 Před 4 lety +1

      The highest ranked Rakan OTP in the world goes for a build where he builds only enchanter items, but still gets a ton of ap because of runes and one of the passives on Athene's. He runs Sorcery tree first most of the time, with Aery (although he's been experimenting with Phase Rush), then Nimbus Cloak, Transcendence and Gathering Storm. Then for his secondary, he goes Ghost Poro and Ultimate Hunter. He also maxes Q>E>W.
      For the actual item build, he rushes CDR boots and Athene's, then Redemption and Ardent. If you really need armor, you can also go for Ninja Tabi instead of CDR boots. As the last item, you could either get a Mikael's or a Locket.

    About runes iam little dissappointed, demolish is good but what About font of life ? Get heal for cc enemy is better and u dont need to build redemption, if u play secondary sorcery or inspration is only what u preffer i preffer inspiration for cookie and cosmic insight.
