Akali Tips

MetaBot Tips
  • Akali has less crowd control than most champions. This can make locking down kills or ganking for other players more difficult.
  • Akali secures less objectives than most champions. Your value may be better oriented towards helping other champions secure objectives.
  • Akali tends to have a lower vision score than other champions. Make sure you are working to place wards and clear enemy wards.
  • Akali has more magic resistance than most champions, which makes them excellent in the early game against magic damage type enemies.
  • Akali has more mana regen than most champions, making their playstyle optimal for aggressive trades in lane.
  • Akali has more health regen than most champions, making their playstyle optimal for aggressive trades in lane.

Playing Akali

  • Akali excels at killing fragile champions. Let your team initiate and then strike at the people in the back.
  • Twilight Shroud offers safety in even the most dangerous situations. Use that time to save up energy for a quick strike later.

Playing Against Akali

  • Akali can still be hit by area effect spells while obscured inside Twilight Shroud. Doing so will briefly reveal her position.
  • Akali's Five Point Strike is powerful when used at maximum range and energy. Engage on her when she has low energy to maximize your chance of winning trades.
  • Return to base if your Health is low and Akali has her ultimate available.
