Diamond 1 Top Assassin Main. Come check me out :)
First off I want to say I can't thank you enough for your insight and videos. Of the 100+ LoL videos I've watched, your "vs Gragas" and "vs Katarina" videos are by far the best and most helpful I've seen. I gained so much insight just from watching those (multiple times). Please please please make more of those!
Two questions for now:
1. Why do your take AD marks? I never thought to take those on Akali, why are they better than, for example, Magic Pen or Hybrid pen? Is it for easier last hitting?
2. Can you give me tips on playing Mid vs Fizz? By far my worst games with Akali have been vs Fizz. What runes, item path, laning strategy, and general tips agasint him?
Thanks so much!

Sure man.
It's really a vague question because now with the new nerf on Akali's shroud she is weak pre-6 and can't trade.
Let's start off with the most picked champions.
Top Lane ( vs Ad Champions) (Flash, Tp)
Ad Red
Flat Hp Yellow
Flat Ap Blue
Flat HP Quints
Build order- Cloth 5 Pots> Boots> Armguard> Sorc> Zhonya> Gunblade> Voidstaff> Sunfire> GA
Top lane ( vs Ap Champions) (Flash, TP)
Ad Red
Hp Scale Yellow
Flat MR Blue
Flat Hp Quints
Build Order- Boots 4 Pots> Hextech> Sorc> Gunblade> At this Point you have gunblade and Sorc. Now it depends how far ahead in farm are you and if enemy team has 3 AP dealing champs or... 2 Fed AP champs.
If enemy team has no Fed AP champions go Zhonya, if enemy team has Fed AP champs not including your lane Go Banshee
Boots 4 Pots> Hextech> Sorc> Gunblade>(They r fed!!) > Banshee> Abby
Boots 4 Pots> Hextech> Sorc> Gunblade>(enemy team not fed) > Zhonya> Abby
Top lane: Who counters you to the point where you can't farm unless you are on ur tower...?
1. Lulu
2. Ryze
3. Darius
4. Riven (High Elo)
5. Jayce (High Elo)
This is all a vague explanation of the matchups, to go into each match up in-depth with crucial detail would take 40 minutes per champ. I have my guide on lolking for that.
Akali Pre-6 is a Q Farming champion. The only assassin i know of that literally runs from everything pre-6. Zed has W-Q-E poke. Talon has a ranged W that deals decent damn damage. Kat has a Jump.
Akali has nothing, you literally have Q farm only.
1. Lulu= Farming Lvl, Medium Hard, Kill potential=Meduim
Avoid running in straight lines, always Zig Zag run to bait her nuke. Do not trade this champion until lvl 6, Ask for gank. Lulu has a Slow, Shield, Speed buff, slow debuff, and polymorph#balanced
Anti Lulu build> Boots> Hextech>Sorc>Gunblade>Haunting guise> Zhonya>Aby> Lichbane
2. Ryze= Farming Lvl Medium, Kill potential= EASY
The king of toplane in Korea. Ryze can poke you with his Auto-Q-Auto. Don't get hit by this!!
Ryze is much easier to farm against then most of the Top5 champions but thats after some practice.
Alot of ryze's poke depends on your positioning and smart use of W. Don't be afraid to Q-E spam the minions under protection of your W. After your W is on cooldown, runnnnn.
Anti Ryze build> Boots>Sorc> Haunting guise> Gunblade>Banshee > Zhonya> Aby
3. Darius= Farming Lvl Easy, Kill Potential= None
Darius isn't really a counter... He just can't be killed and you can't trade him. Other than that he;s an easy lane.
- Just let the lane push, always!!!
- Farm under tower, dodge his Q and Pull and boom Free farm!!
-Warning if you get below 600hp, you can get all'in Dived with his Q-W-E-R-Ignite. Yep..
Anti Darius> Cloth>Armguard> Boots> Zhonya> Sorc> Gunblade> Void> Sunfire> GA
4. Riven= Farming level= HARD, Kill potential=Only if she doesnt have Ulti,hex, or a pink...
I honestly hate riven mains. They can zone you at lvl 1
Rivens at high elo will not only beat you pre-6 and zone you pre-6 but they will rush hexdrinker. You can't win this lane if the riven player is a better player then you.
-Bait her to all in you on tower
-You can farm safe after she blows all 3 hits of Q on minion. (watch out for Dash stun).
-If she buys pink don't even think about leaving your tower...
Remember how darius can all in you at 600hp or less? Riven can all in you at any given point with Ulti.
Yep, #balanced. At any given point that she has ulti and you decide to zone out boom, dead.
Anti Riven> Doran Shield> Armguard> Boots> Zhonya> Sorc> Gunblade> Void> Sunfire> GA
