Rakan vs Ashe

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Use brush control to threaten (W) engages and deny Ashe's slow chain setup.
Prioritize protecting your ADC from (R) pick attempts with timely (E) shields.
Leverage Rakan's mobility to create fast engages when your ADC can follow up immediately.

Trading pattern

Engage with (W) when your ADC is ready to follow up on knockups for maximum impact.
Hold (E) charges to peel Ashe's slows and (R) stun attempts, enabling safer ADC positioning.
Deny Ashe brush control to reduce her poke angles and limit her ability to slow your ADC.

Danger windows

(R) stun opens pick windows; keep vision and hold (E) to shield your ADC during these threats.
(W) slows limit your ADC's escape; avoid engaging when (W) is up without your peel ready.
Ashe's poke and slows create vulnerability when your (W) or (E) are on cooldown; respect these cooldowns to protect ADC access.

Early game

Win the level 2 race by coordinating (W)+(E) to secure early lane pressure and ADC access.
Deny Ashe's poke by controlling brush and positioning to block her (W) angles.
Use wave crash timing to create roam windows while ensuring your ADC stays safe from Ashe's slows.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (W)+(E) trades, increasing engage threat; use this to pressure Ashe before she can poke.
Level 3 completes your kit with (Q) heal/poke; use it around brush control to sustain trades and enable ADC follow-up.
Level 6 (R) charm can charm multiple targets; coordinate engages with your ADC to punish Ashe's lack of mobility.

Win conditions

Convert brush control and engage cooldowns into ADC follow-up and denied enemy ADC positioning.
Use your mobility to roam after wave crashes, placing river vision to secure dragon and mid pressure.
Set up favorable teamfights by using (R) charm to initiate and peel with (E) to protect your ADC from Ashe's slows and (R) stun.
