How to Play with Vex as Rakan in LoL

The Rakan Vex synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Vex, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Rakan sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Vex. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Vex helps Rakan perform worse in ranked League of Legends matches. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Rakan is an ally to Vex, he gets a barely noticable drop in his full damage output. This could demonstrate that Vex doesn't help cover for him to dish out more damage or that their allyship also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Rakan is played with Vex on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Vex.

Additionally, when Rakan plays with Vex on the same team, he typically receives a little more damage than when he fights alone. Getting dealt more damage may indicate that Vex does a poor job of protecting Rakan during teamfights.

This shows that there is a weak bond between Rakan and Vex that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Vex has a much lower diffuclty than Rakan. That means Rakan players don't need to be cautious when lining up Vex teammates to fight alongside, as they will require a much lower level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Fighting alongside, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to provide a lot of utility for your team. Together, these two may be able to carry with the power of their abilities.

Conversely, by bringing Rakan and Vex together, you may not be providing your other allies very much AD. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that offsets this gap in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Vex ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well, regardless.
