Hello.

Welcome to my guide on akali, most of the things you need to know will be right here
so lets start with the basics

There are 3 kind of matchups you get:

1) You can hard abuse them with Q - Passive auto whenever they walk up

2) You have to wait for minions to get low and then Q the CS and hit the enemy at the same time if they are in range

3) You will farm under tower and try to freeze the lane, this method recommended when you play against poke or vs very range match-up like lucian or galio

When you get lvl 3 you can actually one shot them with the simple combo of
Q -> Passive -> E -> E2 -> Passive -> W -> Q -> Passive -> Ignite. It might sound like hard combo but he really isn't

On the first wave you need to push it hard and maybe miss 1 or 2 minions so you will get lvl 2 before your enemy and then poke him hard, after you pushed the first wave you need to wait and let the second wave push you so you could freeze and get level 3 and poke him hard again or maybe even kill him after lvl 3 you just wanna freeze and poke until lvl 6 when you hit lvl 6 you want to push the wave and roam all the time

this spell is not only Akali's most important ability, but it's her most versatile one as well. A good Akali player can be distinguished by how they use Shroud, some examples are:

- cancelling abilities / autos
- gain MS / Energy for trades
- Juking or setting up plays with E
- zoning entire teams

1 way I use it a lot its when I know the enemy jungler gonna gank me and then I all in the enemy laner and when the enemy jungler ganks I use Shroud + E to escape

YOU NEVER WANNA USE E TO POKE

This can be done at many stages and is one of the best ways to get ahead, but it can backfire so you shouldn't do it unless you are sure it will work out,things to look out for before roaming are:

- No summoner spells
- Low mobility
- Very aggressive playstyle
- make sure they dont have vision

But before leaving lane it is best to shove in the minions to minimize the XP and Gold you
