AP RAKAN MID LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. AP Rakan is my go to build whenever i play stuff like URF or OFA or the like, im not good enough to make it actually work in normal SR
10:10 Lillia: misses everything. Unable to chase 1hp Grave as the fastest champ (by hitting a chicken). Pekin: Close though So generous. I like how chill Pekin is in his vids. No sarcasm. I legit do.
@@gsb-k6n It's a bit harder at lower elo to do it verbatim with all the tantrum ppl throw. (chief among which if the "game is >30min, I quit!") But yes, it's a good idea! And it's true much more often than not.
SO much better than Sona. The difference between the two champions is like night and day. You can actually PLAY the game with Rakan. I find it funny that there was a Zayah in the game and I don't think it mattered even once. You were so rarely near her.
@@ongseungwu4311 im Xayah OTP with more than 1k games on her and yes. She relies so much on decent support that i stopped playing her bot lane and went mid, now im dominating games by just farming early game and bursting down anything with hall of blades rune.
I like how there was a good 3 minutes of not fully upgrading the Q to max, multiple teamfights later where many Q's did hit cx also after backing too, was impressive
What you said about spell rotations at 22:00ish has gotten me so many kills on Fizz. Go in, trade all 3 abilities, and walk away like I'm scared, they walk forward for just a second or two and boom I've qr'd off a minion and you're dead to my spells coming off CD
i love seeing you play rakan :O i wish riot made a small change to his e where he can cast it once on minions and recast if the target was a champion just to make playing mid feel a lot more fun :)) i know the engage potential would be through the roof but mobility when alone in lane is something rakan has always lacked o.o
ayo this brought me back some good memories cause i remember playing old ahri into rakan mid. Early/lane phase was easy, but eventually he became a menace through the map cause my team didn't know how to play against him and i was an useless potato ahri lol
Love ap rakan! I actually use it in my ranked games Morello is bad on him btw, you cant reliably proc the anti-heal and youre looking to one shot people, so they wont heal anyways
I mean it gives 90 ap now and he can reliably knock grouped targets to 50%hp with aoe abilities so worst case he gets a 3 s grief wounds for 40% healing reduction.
I used to love this build. Durability patch basically completely kneecapped it, now it’s just meme sadly, you used to be able to win level 1 so hard, even win early games and get kills. But now you basically can’t win until Uber late
i did myself the last m7 token 26k points by going jng and making the burning build: liandri, demonic, rylai. rakan has only a aoe frequent skill, so when he uses it he lives out of dot dmg. better this than penetration build. by the time you get your 2nd item you have to permaroam and give chaos to enemies while having 2500 hp at least
I am personally interested about a more supportish perma roam Rakan mid, with Mandate, Ardent etc... Might be interesting, like a similar playstyle to Singed mid
if yuumi damage some before you do even attach inside of tower range yes she will take agro the worse part was in the previous 13 sec yuumi got hit by seraphine giving her the kill so if yuumi had being hit my seraphine and waited she would get executed i know this because played yuumi tank and did than alot in season 11 and what makes yuumi jhin so stupid is the W yes 20 + 20% adaptive force at max is nice but the 45% attack speed on her E is as strong you put both together and 1000 ad jhin at 35 min with the right items
10:38 "we can let him sleep, its the weekend, no need to wake him up" XD
that cracked me up man
I was literally jus going "wheres my pekin fix?"

League is definitely more fun if you can manage to assume everyone is trying their best and support them
It is a Normal and is good since it prolongs the game to make a better video. =P

They were even next to each other but didn't recall together. I guess Xayah and Rakan are having couple problems now.
Xayah is underwhelming rn i hate it because i love playing her 😐
let's face it, Rakan has always been the prettier one, he's able to do so much more, he's fun in all elos and is tons of fun. Rakan is great.

17:47 to 20:24
Incredible
It's getting worse... Pekin pls. D:

the "sorry what" at 11:25 straight up made me die laughing

Nice idea but riot can't touch him cause of pro play
Make it so you can ward hop with it
Or just make it so he can target himself like Lee E
Did Pekin play Skarner mid? No.
Lose Streak: 325
10:32 “We can let him sleep in, it’s a weekend” that is so good
10:11 - 10:37 LMFAO "let him sleep in and its a weekend". i laughed so hard at that
Pekin: 25/0 enemy team: jg diff
Your Rakan was so patient and controlled, such a perfect game!
“We can let him sleep in, and it’s a weekend” ….amazing haha
“We can let him sleep in, it’s the weekend” has got to be the funniest shit 🤣 couldn’t stop laughing
was literally sitting waiting for this upload! yayayayay!
18:20 I love how Lillia ran AWAY from the Rakan that could E to her over the wall...
"we can let him sleep in and its a weekend." im crying lmaoo
I'm so happy. I suggested this the other day and you're playing it. Thanks Pekin!
Pekin the comedian with that sleeping in on the weekend joke. Absolute banger
Great vid as always Pekin!. Keep up the great work!.
"We can let him sleep in, it's a weekend" Pekin's so kind
"we can let him sleep in, it's the weekend" lmaoo
Thank you for choosing the objectively best Rakan skin
ayo this brought me back some good memories cause i remember playing old ahri into rakan mid. Early/lane phase was easy, but eventually he became a menace through the map cause my team didn't know how to play against him and i was an useless potato ahri lol
Every time pekin plays Rakan mid he gets likes. Every time I play Rakan mid I lose my friends. Solution?
Play more Rakan
Loving this kind of picks, extremely fun to watch!
27:15 bounties are just now available for a 40 to 11 game
Love ap rakan! I actually use it in my ranked games
Morello is bad on him btw, you cant reliably proc the anti-heal and youre looking to one shot people, so they wont heal anyways

Definition of suffering from success 💀
I am so excited to watch this! I play AP Rakan all the time in mid. Hopefully I can learn something new :)
No need to rush and wake him up because it's a weekend... Lol gg. This was another champ pick I was not expecting to be possible. That's cool.
omg thank you so much for this😭😭You're the best!!🌟🌟always look forward for your videos you're honestly the reason why I've improved !!
Yuumi *Dies*
Pekin: I'm sorry, little one
I remember watchin bjergsen playing ap rakan mid on urf. It was so sick
I used to love this build. Durability patch basically completely kneecapped it, now it’s just meme sadly, you used to be able to win level 1 so hard, even win early games and get kills. But now you basically can’t win until Uber late
10:16 "we can let him sleep in" 😉
Would you say AP zeri is dead after the nerfs on 12.16 or could it still be playable with adjusted build?
Wow I didn’t realize Rakan could hit so hard. I appreciate the lesson.
Perfect timing for a video 👍 my food will now taste better thank you
i love pekin content
10:37 it’s a weekend lmao
This should be a meta. Best AP Rakan
He takes all my support characters and make them mid… Love it!
Sick dawg
Watching pekin everynight nowadays

I got a notification of you going live and this TH-cam video at the same time. Wtf
'No Xayah!', Rakan exclaimed. :(
Great game as always :)
Love u Pekin ❤️
"We can let him sleep in and it's a weekend."
Rakan is just a fun champion, and it's kind of sad they nerfed his ap builds. Glad to see people can still make it work.
in what language he's called "Raglan"?
@@Traumwandler Shhhhhh, we don't speak of this typo ever again lol
Hello everyone, this is YOUR daily dose of Pekin.
Last time he did AP rakan he also went up an ahri
Yayy new video
Woof
Looks like fun!
wake up babe pekin posted
FYI putting pints into Q doesn't increase the healing. It's based on champion level.
10:30 missed a good hibernation pun here
Hey there Pekin, I wanted to ask why there aren't any more videos in the second channel
I am personally interested about a more supportish perma roam Rakan mid, with Mandate, Ardent etc... Might be interesting, like a similar playstyle to Singed mid
why are they gold 3? are you not on your Challenger account or something? just curious
Day 3 of asking Pekin to play full AP ludens Tahm Kench.
Love it!
it'd be cool if they made q heal off large monsters to make a jungle full ap rakan semi-viable
I trust this dude and I feel like im not being lied to or deceived like other content creators. Even I dont play lol I am entertained by the content
He's always very open and honest about playing norms or in lower elo or both, which I appreciate.
That first fight bot was insane. Maybe you could try Crit Rakan?
I am shook at how cleanly he played Rakan.
Isn't lich bane really good on rak?
what do I have to do to get you to try out ability haste rakan i would love to send you the build
wooo!! my main is here! let's goooo!
Pekin i am living inside your walls
Think this is a good idea to use as like, a mid laner? Cause I like rakan but I really don't like playing bot
Do it , no prob
rakan immediately gets my attention!
We can let him sleep in, it's the weekend
Pog pekin looks spicy 😋
14:48 my dad @ my mom
i main ap rakan mid, its so fun. i mainly run luden's but i like night harvester and rift maker
Rakan's Q's healing doesn't increase when you level it, only the damage
i'm sorry to tell you this mr pekin, rakan q heal doesn't scale with rank. it scales with champ level
oh em gee the botlaner is me!!!
All hail the algorithm!
amazing.
A blessing from the lord!
ap increase with yuumi is insane
YESSSSSS I LOVE U PEEKIN SM 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😌
That actually seems viable
Hello, person.
JG Diff - uhhh what?
commenting for algorithm and sleeping in volibear
love u
I love these off meta picks. Bronze IV incoming.
ironically ben meaning to play sona and rakan mid since I play them in sup secondary
Can you please make one video with Annie?
hi Pekin, I know you strictly do League content but I would love to see you try DOTA 2 just for a fun video
if yuumi damage some before you do even attach inside of tower range yes she will take agro the worse part was in the previous 13 sec yuumi got hit by seraphine giving her the kill so if yuumi had being hit my seraphine and waited she would get executed i know this because played yuumi tank and did than alot in season 11
and what makes yuumi jhin so stupid is the W yes 20 + 20% adaptive force at max is nice but the 45% attack speed on her E is as strong you put both together and 1000 ad jhin at 35 min with the right items
AP gragas video?? Thoughts?
Is there anyone that does the same type of gameplay commentary as Pekin but for top lane?
