for rune you need to stack ap and attack power for her passives and basic/ulti attacks. also get defense andenergy regen runes because u may run out faster in a big fight

1v1
when fight harass hard then retreat to a shroud or bush repeat if they try to run at low health hit them with shadow dance then hit hard if under turret dance out or use flash to get out
5v5
never be first to attack let your team be targeted first then hit hard if you are overwhelmed then back off with flash or shadow dance

I based my items on ap and attack damage so that it will help all her moves and skyrocket her passive

her core item really is the scepter the boots are for her ulti so it is bingbaddaboom in and out of a fight
her other items depend on the situation and make it easier to handle but i usually stack ap because it is easier to manage

remember when fighting to be second to fight usually people will hit akali first so dash in with shadow dance and do not just use it to be offensive use it to run away when u have low health to dash to a minion or neutral combined with flash this move can give you alot of needed kills or getaways

mark of the ***issian- you throw your kama at an enemy the bulk of this attack comes from when you hit the enemy afterward it restores energy and deals much more damage
