Taric vs Rakan

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Use (W) to link with your ADC and threaten (E) stuns from multiple angles for engage control.
Deny Rakan's engage by controlling brush and forcing him to waste (E) charges.
Prioritize protecting your ADC through sustained fights and timing (R) before enemy burst.

Trading pattern

Link (W) to your ADC and threaten (E) stuns to force Rakan to hesitate engaging.
Hold (R) to counter Rakan's charm and knockup burst, enabling your ADC to follow up safely.
Punish missed (W) by Rakan with immediate pressure and deny his ADC access.

Danger windows

Respect (W) knockup and (E) dash combo as it threatens your ADC's positioning.
Avoid fighting outside your (W) shield range where Rakan can exploit mobility to engage.
Watch for Rakan's level 6 charm engage when he can chain CC through multiple targets.

Early game

Track level 2 to contest wave only if your ADC can follow your (Q)+(E) threat.
Secure brush control early to limit Rakan's dash engage and create safer ADC positioning.
Use wave crashes to create roam windows but ensure ADC safety before leaving lane.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks your (Q) heal plus (E) stun, enabling stronger trades if ADC follows.
Level 3 (W) angles improve your peel and poke, so use brush control to maximize impact.
Level 6 (R) grants invulnerability; time it before Rakan's charm or enemy burst to win fights.

Win conditions

Convert brush control and stun angles into denying enemy ADC positioning and access.
Use (R) proactively in extended fights to protect your ADC from Rakan's burst and charm.
Set river vision to track Rakan's roam timer and prepare for dragon or mid pressure setups.

Tip: For Taric vs Rakan, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Support lane check.
