Vision deficit: Struggling in both the matchup and vision control (0.90 vs 0.98 wards/min) demands defensive warding and heavy jungle coordination. Damage doesn't equal wins: Blitzcrank outputs more damage (371 vs 279/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup.

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.
The magic damage that Blitzcrank deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Rakan has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.
Consider the excellent vision control demonstrated by Rakan, ranking 8th (versus 19th for Blitzcrank) in ward placement among supports. This means the opponent provides better map vision for their team. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.8 versus 2.5) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Blitzcrank player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Rakan player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.
