For me, Akali's passive enables me to quickly restore health and dash in teamfights again.


Hi @MysticPuppet I believe you told me to take a look at your guide from the other Akali guide? Well I actually like it very much its really cute!

Now that the good news is over its time for the bad news unfortunately. I am sorry to say but slows do not stack.

Quoted from LoL Wiki:
Slowing effects follow particular rules when stacking:

"If a champion is affected by multiple slows, the strongest one will be fully applied, while the others are applied sequentially with 65% reduced effectiveness down to 35% of its original strength.
Slow effects derived from items' passives do NOT stack, even when coming from different champions. Only the strongest item slow is applied at any moment. The exception to this is the active effect of Randuin's Omen, Hextech Gunblade and Bilgewater Cutlass, which stacks with other slowing items normally because they are considered champion abilities for slow stacking purposes.
Attacking a champion with the Blessing of the Lizard Elder buff when the target is already affected by that slow will reapply the debuff, resetting its duration. It will NOT increase the slow amount. The same holds true for the Exhaust summoner spell.

ExampleEdit

A champion with a raw movement speed of 400 is affected by a 2 second long 40% slow and a 5 second long 20% slow at the same time.

For the first two seconds, he will have (1 − 0.4) × (1 − 0.2 × 0.35) = 0.6 × 0.93 = 55.8% of his original movement speed (a 44.2% effective slow). So he will have 400 × 0.558 = 223.2 raw movement speed.
For the following three seconds, the effective slow will be 20% and so he will have 400 × 0.8 = 320 movement speed.
After that, he will return to his normal speed of 400."

that being said, the strongest slow will apply but with diminished return.

I should also mention that Akali's purpose isn't to be tanky although you can make her that way if you so wish. Her main role, from my own experience with her, is best as the clean up crew or quietly sit back until the enemy uses up their CCs then you go in, take our their Carries, get out, and go back in to clean up.

P.S. Don't let this get you down. Keep up the good work! ^.~


Lol Thataznkid, look at my first few lines.

I literally quoted Riot about the passive item slow not stacking.

This build isn't about stacking slow, it's about keeping slow up the whole time.

My experience says me Akali is nice to play tanky, that's the whole point why I made the guide ;)
No problem if you don't agree, but I just like to play it this way :P

P.S: DO READ MY GUIDE NEXT TIME! XD

You need a spell vamp item. A hextech revolver and later build into a hextech gunblade.

Good guide, just upvoted. Through you may want to fix the template a little, add codes and stuff.

You could put the mastery points in good hands instead of in mana -_- but good guide!

Nice looking build, I really like the way you explain and argue your choices.

I haven't tried it yet, but a few tips:

You could shorten your purchase order; usually you don't buy every single item before building the bigger item.

Secondly, minor tip, a few images and stuff could make your build look a bit more shiny.

Last tip would be to try and add other options as well, or maybe some situational tactics.
