Worked amazingly well against co-op
However, she is damn squishy against some champs who can just rape her, especially, Riven and Renekton. Well its not the guide, its Akali herself tho.

+1 btw

I love this build, however, I was wondering what you would think about running 22/0/8 (grabbing full AP masteries, Brute Force and Summoner's Wrath, energy per level and summoner's insight and swiftness from utility), and running a standard AP rune page - MPen marks, Armor seals, MR/lvl glyphs, AP quints. Using this set up I have a huge amount of AP at the start, I can pick up a Doran's Blade to activate the spell vamp passive, so I have both passives, and you aren't really that slow as you'd expect thanks to Swiftness. I find it works really well. Mind you I'm not high elo, so I was just wondering.

Thoughts?

Doran's Blade is ok, you will get out harassed though. You really need Boots of Speed & 3/4 Health Potions to last against most solo-tops.

With your set-up you're going full on glass canon, nothing wrong with that, I don't prefer it.

You can go use that rune set-up. Armor Seals good for top. Only drawback is you don't have your second passive if you're forced to choose another item. Which you will need to do the majority of the time.

I used to use Boots of Swiftness a lot too. But I learned Mercury Treads/ Ninja Tabi exceed the viability of what Boots of Swiftness can give you.

The problem with your set-up is you need a Doran's Blade to proc your second passive. It gives you no flexibility what so ever in starting items. When you start playing games with really good people who know how to build against you, you'll see why it's important for those early potions. :P

The build you have going is good for pub-stomping low elo though!

Ninja Tabi
Hextech Revolver
Chain Vest

Don't harass if they are winning the trades. Just farm it out and build accordingly. If you fall to far behind, you lose.

This guide is absolutely amazing! I get atleast 10 kills a game with Akali and may only die at a maximum of 3-5 times, depending on how long the game goes. I couldn't begin to count the number of 20+ kills, 5 deaths games i've had because of this guide. I appreciate this guide very much and I would just like to say thank you!

Although I do have one thought to throw out there.. I do enjoy getting Mejis Soulstealer every game, cause once you get 20 stacks its GG for everyone. I'll go boots of speed, port back at 1250 gold, get soulstealer.

Thanks!
I apologize, but I don't review other Akali guides because so many people have asked me too, and reprimanded me for stating my opinions.

Excuse me....
But what skin do you recommend?!?? Lol. I've been to many polls and its a tie between Blood & Nurse. But people kinda like Stinger too. Though I wonder why people don't like Silver that much T.T

You know a serious thing to consider is swapping some points from other places in your masteries, mainly Archmage and Blast and put the points into Weapon Expertise , since Lich Bane and a lot of akali's damage ends up being physical. Having both passives at level 1 I find doesn't do much. Its worth a try to find if you don't like it or not.


HELP NOOB OUT.
