Shaco vs Rakan Matchup Summary

The Shaco vs Rakan matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 9 recent matches analyzed, Rakan wins with a 77.8% win rate compared to Shaco's 22.2%, giving Rakan a 55.6 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Rakan controls the early laning stage, but Shaco outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Rakan needs to press advantages before Shaco reaches their power spikes, while Shaco should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in sustain, where Rakan leads by 786 HP/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Rakan has a strong advantage in this matchup. Shaco players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Rakan overextending. Avoid prolonged trades and wait for team fights where positioning and coordination matter more. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Rakan dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 100.0% win rate — a 100.0 percentage point lead over Shaco. This lopsided early game means Rakan can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.

Late game (25+ minutes) is equally balanced, with Shaco at 50.0% win rate — only 0.0 points ahead of Rakan. Team fight execution and macro play determine the winner at this stage, not champion matchup advantage.

The power dynamics shift as the game progresses — Rakan has the edge early, but Shaco gradually takes over. However, the margins are slim enough that either champion can win at any stage with the right plays. Focus on taking advantages when you have them rather than waiting for a specific game phase.
