What champion guide would you like to see me make next? Comment down below!
Nasteey bard guide
Nasteey thresh pls
Nasteey A Bard guide would be nice. I can't seem to find a viable use for him.
Nasteey thresh maybe idk
Bard
Just to make it a 2v3 xD
Finally! A high elo support main making content.
Morgana, Thresh, Alistar, Leona, Braum, Zyra, Karma. Shit, just go down the list my dude.
Will do!
Daddy_Daughter shen?
rakan?
As much as I love being one of the very very few Taric mains, there are no guides and I'm not sure what I should be doing better. A Taric guide would be great even if it caused a small spike in the Taric players.
It's pretty strange to see how basically nobody plays Taric even though he's really good. I would love to make a guide for him but the thing holding me back is the fact that he has such a low play rate so we'll see.
King Taric made a Taric guide around a week ago. Was pretty helpful to me, even though I knew about most of what he mentioned in the video. Helped summarise Taric into a whole, if that makes sense.
I want to master Taric as a support main, because he has cc, shield, aoe heal and an extremely powerful ultimate.
But I just can't seem to find how to
Taric was my main before his rework. He's still in my support rotation. And was still the first champ I got mastery 7 on.
nonono, I don't wanna see Taric being picked more often. That means someone might pick him instead of me... Let him be unknown, I like it this way.
Dude that was really good thanks!
Glad for your different and flexible uploads! Maybe you'd make a video covering anti-meta (countering meta, often unpopular support champions) picks? :D Great video btw!
Karl-Markus Kivioja already planning on doing this video in the future so look forward to it!
thank u for this very informing video
AMAZING GUIDE!! I really love the effort you put into it, and it was really useful!
Thank you!
I do the usual w/r combo but never thought of adding flash. Thanks for taking this to the next step.
Great video Nasteey! excited to try out Rakan
Thanks man!
This is the best Rakan guide on CZcams! Good work!
Thanks!
Very helpful guide. Thank you.
Amazing guides thank you. Great having something geared for supports
no problem!
It was good to see the combos at the end.
Also I was wondering which ability to max. I had been doing W, but then was thinking maybe I should be maxing Q. Thanks for clearing that up for me. Nice video.
Really good guide!
keep doing guides like this!!! thet are amazing, nice job
oscar teruel borras thank you! I’m trying my best!
Very helpful bro , liked and subscribed
Ty so much This guide improved my rakan so much
Thank you for making this video ! This helped me so much !! And because of this I now know what rakan is capable of.. Thank you very much :)
No problem glad I could help!
Thanks Nasteey, Hope you make these for other engage supports
DT Luveros it’s on my to do list!
cool guide! very helpful
I’m stuck on level 6 rakan , and I got to say that this is a really good guide. Subscribed. Keep up the good work mate. I’m looking forward for my level 7 after this guide. 😂
great guide - thx
Good video, preparing to do Xayah and Rakan with a friend and this helps a lot.
Glad to help :)
you sound clear and crisp awesome mic set up
Awesome! Great job!
thank you!
Great video mate keep up the good work
Thanks!
We really need a Taric guide from you asap. Great work so far thanks.
It's coming soon :)
Good guide! Keep up the good work!
thank you!
Came here from Rakan mains subreddit (u posted a link to this vid) :> Been a Rakan OTP for some time (played since his release but took a break during summer, and then on preseason) so it was really nice seeing some thoughts on the new runes reforged for Rakan since i havent totally been active with rakan lately as i said.
After watching this video u got my sub & i watched all of ur other vids too :> they're really great and i hope you'll keep on uploading new ones. although im dia your coaching vids have a lot of useful tips in them, even if u are coaching gold, and im looking forward to ur next upload(sss). my fav vids so far are the ones where u comment ur gameplay or coach someone else.
you are really informative and what i like the most is actually your attitude towards the game, focusing on yourself, not blaming team or being salty. i have been doing the same for some months now, tryna stay positive, although i tend to bash myself instead of my teammates when things get hard and that puts me on tilt qq
to sum this up im really happy that i found a youtuber that is active and his fav champion is rakan AND he is super high elo. there are not many rakan players out there that are high elo, and if i stumble upon one they dont really have him in top played anyway, or they have a different playstyle with rakan, but urs really seem to suit me so im glad i found you finally :D
Glad you found my channel and hope I can help in any way possible!
Cool guide!
Nice work!
thank you!
I am a sucker for rakan, I m a mid main and was in search of what to play when autofilled, and I am in love with this guy's mobility and engage.
Thank you for the effort you put into making these guides, they are so very helpful!
(A Silver Playah)
happy to help!
Nice, Rakan, Nami, and Alistar are my current rotation of supports.
Mine is very similar :)
Nice, just don't tell rito this, but i find Nami's one of the few healing supports who hasn't been nerfed or changed significantly.
Such a great educational channel I don't understand why you don't get more views. ;)
AkSora all I can do is try my best and hope it works out
Great video, I main rakan and realised this season I'd have to play him differently and you also taught me some stuff I wasn't doing that I should like roaming 😅 thanks man
Glad I could help!
Great content, thank you.
No, thank you :)
Good video bro it helped me so much since in this pre season i've been facing some troubles with rakan , especially in the laning face , when i get home i'll try all the advices and builds to see if i can solve the problems that i face
Glad I could help! I'd also recommend sticking to strictly passive or defensive runes and builds for you at least at first until you get the hang of the champion.
thank you so much for the guide, i has been so confused of which ability should I max with Rakan (and also what runes or build should i go with), I feel more comfortable with W, but there are so much guide that max Q or E first. So this is like the perfect guide for me, thank you for all the information ;D
Glad I could help!
great video, thanks
no problem!
Nice vid, love the content
Thank you!
Thanks for the guide
no problem!
Very helpful thx a lot! Please do more tutorials
taric guide out tomorrow!
Very nice 👍 channel and vids I liked it commented and subscribed gj keep it up man😘😍👋and forgot to mention that it was so useful 😋
Smooth editing and great, insightful video! Just picked up Rakan after my Year in Review recommended him. Your guide was helpful and love all the support content your channel covers. Do you reckon a Braum video would be doable for you?
Don't play Braum much but I'm open to all options
Love your guides!! I love Rakan's playstyle but for some reason he's my lowest winrate champ for ranked ? Hopefully can use your guide to change that ahaha. Excellent work as always, keep it up! 👍🏻
Happy to help!
Pretty good quide.! Could show more vision skills about that two builds (aggressiv / passiv). btw gj mate! keep going!
I can't believe how fun this guy is to play he has everything i want in a supp:ton of cc, mobility and heal (lolz) and a shield
Really really good guide! Awsommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
thanks man :)
Thx you helped me much
LpmitBeno Fan happy to help!
Ty for this
Happy to help!
Nice video dude keep it up :)
Thank you!
thanks for guide it help me a lot for playing rakan im new rakan player and this guide help a lot thank you so much i hope there is more rakan vids
I personally love playing Rakan so you can expect more Rakan videos in the future for sure
Very nice guide, if it could be more in depth I will love it. Bc in this video I learnt some small details that I didn't know before. And I want to see a guide of all suports xD but preffer the moer complex ones like thresh.
I agree that I could have gone more in depth for sure but I didn't want to make it long and boring so I tried to compact it all into 10 minutes. But, maybe I'll do a longer one next time if I do end up choosing a more difficult champion like Thresh.
That helped alot, thanks. I am maining Rakan, it's a very fun champion to play, for me. Easy way to describe him - Support Lee Sin.
LOL support lee sin is so accurate
Great Video papi!
thanks son
dude you re a god thanks for that
Happy to help!
tnx this really helped...im xayah main so trying 2 learn rakan as well
happy to help!
Dude,You Always Motivate Me With All Of Your Videos They're Really Enjoying AND REALLY HELPFUL TOO,Your Making Me Like Supp Champs Like Thresh,Rakan ETC,Heh I'm Gonna Buy Rakan Right Now,Holy Cow It's Legit 12:00 pm here I have to sleep hahahahah Keep Up The Good Videos!!! :3
Thanks a lot man I'm trying my best!
Just curious, why do you capitalize every single word?
He's probably quite young. I used to do it all the time because I thought capital letters looked nicer.
thanks bro
thx man
Absolutely wonderfull guide...can you please show me how to use properly Malzahar?
Leona , Alistar or Thresh would be great to do guides on :D
Since Leona is in the meta right now I'm really considering doing a guide for her next. But, Alistar and Thresh i think would also be pretty nice to have guides for just because of how popular they are.
Great video, I just have one question: i've noticed Rakan has two auto attack animations (one meele and another range, the meele one si obligatory during his ult) so do this meele attack affects the statistics of the meele items passives and runes like for example black cleaver or glacial augment? Thanks and keep on the good work
You know, I haven't actually tested this myself. But I don;t think it would be wise to build specifically for these small time frames in which his autos change.
Only have played a few games with rakan he is super fun the R-W combo is sick gonna try that now
oh yeah very fun :)
Nasteey thanks this guide helped me so much i got an S- last game 4/0/13
really good
thanks!
iron skin removed. what do you suggest new runes
i love rakan as a tank jg. enemy teams don't expect it and the ganks are downright brutal while remaining safe. His extremely low damage means i only pick it in games where my team has tons of damage and very little tank (fiora zed cait sona, for example) and his level 1 clear is pretty difficult, but as soon as you pick up a bami's you can clear easy, and a leash at the beginning should get you to that point without much hassle.
Rakan as a jungler? O.o
yup, he's basically lee sin with more mobility and CC, but no damage!
Janna jg is better
nice guide you speak very good my english is so bad but i understand it thank you!! :D
happy to help!
I play in dia as top and jungle, mainly every bruiser but play in my smurf as support. Since playing support for my girlfriend is more important than my mastering top lane in dia lol. I don't know if you (or anyone at all) would ever read this, but this video would help me after we get out of gold. In gold, it's just keep my adc alive and engage whenever I can (there is follow up damage without anyone dying). I would need to peel when in higher elo as you've said and we also came to the same conclusions in build, runes and skill tree. I just didn't know I need to peel. This video would totally help me in future games.
Glad to help out man
Thank you!
Hi
What do u think of ingenious hunter on supports? i.e Talisman+ righteous Glory Rakan or even Face of the Mountain, Solari, zz rot, Banner of command Tahm Kench. I use it quite often on Tank/engage sups because I want zombie Ward anyways.
what do you think abour this ?
Cyrill
I'm all for experimenting and trying new things and although that sounds interesting I still think sticking to more typical runes that are proven to have success is always the better option
I think saying always better is really dumb. If that was the case we would have the same meta as in season 1.
I'm saying choosing runes that are more successful is always a better option but runes change just like champions do and at some point, as we have already seen, some runes will be better than others. So, for that reason, the best option will always change which is why we don't have the same meta.
Ty
Thanks
no problem!
Holy Shit that audio was so good it made me take off my headsets cuz i thought they weren't plugged in.
I do Glacial on Rakan as it can help with the Knock Up-Slow Chain.
And Sorcery second.
Lots of viable options out there so whatever works best for you can also work
Good vid
thanks!
nice
ur masteries r different to mine, but how u play rakan is like i know how i should play him... maybe if u make such a videos like this u should exxplain when do i trade as supp (for example, when the enemy dash or main dmg is used or somethhing like this) ,too. Nevertheless it was a good video so thanks and gl to reach challanger ^^
thanks I appreciate the advice!
Ive just started using Rakan after i came across your videos but i was wondering if you could remake this vid for season 10. Im not sure if much has changed or not
what do you think of the gardian keystone instead of aftershock on rakan played as a CC tank support ? because it help me a lot in laning phase and it pretty useful to switch between a front lane and utility for your teammates in team fight. I know people that don't like it because of the high cd on it.
I think Guardian will be best as soon as Aftershock is nerfed
Your guides r so fucking good! Thank you
Much appreciated!
I love Rakan. He have so much mobility and can deal sweet damage too. And my friend main Xayah.
In order to use the effect of Rakan with Solari, he needs to build tank. But Rakan's ratios are high in ap, so maybe going ap with some support items can increase his power in healing, shielding and damage.
I prefer putting tank items off until 4th or 5th item
I love good engage champs
Same
For Rakan, what do you think about starting Inspiration and using Glacial Augment for keystone? Is it better than starting either Sorcery for Aery or Resolve for Aftershock/Guardian?
I'd stick with what I recommended but the meta is pretty flexible right now so there's nothing wrong with picking something different like that
Great guide but is starting W so good?
I've been playing quite a lot Rakan (duo with Xayah) and i like to start with E over anything.
Usually i can leash pretty well for my jungler with the double shield letting him start with 90/100% hp and i'll just test the waters on level 1in lane, i mostly fake out W engages and wait till the last moment in revealing my E start.
With starting W however (i tried it some times) i feel really vulnerable going in up to a point where i rather had my shield/dash from my E to harass securely than to W in again without escape
W start is actually very standard in high elo and if you have a Xayah on your team that's an even bigger reason to start W
Awsome 😋😋
thanks for the details.
can you do Soraka new season guide somewhen soon?
I would love to do more champion guides in the future so I'll keep her in mind
Nasteey thanks, most of guides say shes passive in lane and all you need to do is stay back and heal. but i find her poke is very strong and id loke to see more aggressive guide on her
I have a doubt. When usign the ultimte cdr rune, is there still max cdr? I mean, if you are 40% cdr will that rune do something?
May I ask you, how you do the movement/cinematic thingie in the video? 1:13
it's just a clip from the Rakan champion spotlight
Nasteey Oh, ok
subscibed
Thanks man!
New sub im a supp main too I really like your content and how you explain stuff in ur videos but I wish the videos weren't so low
Working on a fix my apologies!
Niiiiiceee
:)
For Rakan playing with a good Xayah, should her presence change his build? My brother and I love playing the duo, and I’ve tried various complimentary builds specifically to maximize Xayah’s potential. I’ve ran Glacial Augment for a slow after the knock up so that we can both spam damaged with Xayah’s shared W (the AA stim ability).
So my question is, is it worth building for her strengths specifically? And what would the best build look like in terms of runes and item order?
It may be a lengthy question but thanks for your consideration!
I wouldn't alter my build just for Xayah I'd stick with what I recommended in the video
There is one cool thing about the passiv: it regenerates very fast so in the early game u can go for very short trades (mostly 1 AA) that dont destroy your whole shield and it regenerates very fast so u basicly get no damage without loosing anything
yeah i forgot to mention that it regenerates if not broken good point
I just saw this guide now and when I play Raka n with the passive runes, I'd go second tree Sorcery with Nimbus cloak and Water Walking. Nimbus cloak is just so strong because you get speed boosted when ulting.
bought the ssw and ig rakan skin but still bad at it thanks for the video
What about E W E(recast) to dash in and out?
Sorcery as your main rune page only has Aery to help your ally directly with the rest helping you. That's not bad however Resolve has FoL, Revitalize plus you can take Domination again to have Cheap Shot & Zombie Ward... Then again it seems that Inspiration with Glacial Augment is the more preferred main page. Which combination u think is the more balanced if you want some benefits for Rakan and some for Xayah (his ideal marksman) ??
There's many options I just gave a few
I prefer going with cookie instead of magical footwear, it lets you stay in lane longer which in turn gives you enough cash to get tier 2 boots faster.
Hey Nasteey, i just got back to the game and discovered Rakan to be gr8 support so Im maining him atm :d But I use Combination of Sorcery in the main tree and Resolve in the second in my runes to maximise my shields and heals is it possible to go like that ? Im not the highest rank player so id like to hear Your opinion if it would work on higher level. Also Ive discovered that i have problem with sustain in team fights ... i die a lot after engage, and dont know why is that and would like find some solution :)
Yeah that works for sure I think sorcery and resolve is great
Nasteey thank You very much ! I realy apriciate that You answered to me, there is fvery few CZcamsrs that care about their vewers :) Thanks a lot and meaby we'll meet in Chalenger :P
