Beautiful guide

Hi Yamikaze! Great guide, the info's really easy to understand and your explanations are concise and to the point. Sadly, since Gunblade doesn't exist anymore, does that affect the build at all? Or does it stay the same? Additionally, what do you think about Rocketbelt over NH? Same damage, same component, but has magic pen over ability haste. Is it worth?

Good ****

Great guide. I'm curious, would you change your runes at all when taking night harvester as opposed to riftmaker?

I saw in the ability order image that you recommend leveling W over E. Is that right and, if so, can you explain so I know if it is something I should do or not. Because rn, it seems to me that leveling E for more dmg instead of a slightly longer W duration is better but that may also just be me not playing Akali efficiently since I'm still relatively new to the champ.

I feel kinda lost because some of the items (Hextech Revolver, Cutlass, Hextech Gunblade) are removed from the game. What should I buy now?? I have played now 3 matches with very random items and it hasn't worked out. I just keep dying and my damage is very low. And all the items are pretty expensive. I usually get like max 4k money in a game, so I wont be getting like any good items. Any suggestions on what I should buy or do? And also is there a way to buy items cheaper?

Thanks for the great Akali guide. It really helped me a lot to be honest. Thanks to this build I got pretty good at Akali and have climbed a lot this season. This is my first competitive season and I am pretty happy with it so far. When I started out I was extremely bad and currently, I am on my way to getting better. I started this season at Iron Four which was terrible. I honestly had no clue what I was doing. I started playing the game more and tried out different champions. One of which was Akali. I instantly fell in love with the champion. Her playstyle is super fun and aggressive. I do find it sad that riot games keep nerfing Akali into the ground. She has a 45% win rate currently and it is crazy that champions like Riven go unchecked and wreak havoc on everyone. Nasus in the current meta is super strong too (at least in bronze). He seems to single handily carry ever game that he is in. So far this season I have climbed from Iron four to Bronze one. I am on my way to getting to silver(which will be awesome). Do you guys have any tips for killing minions as Akali? I find that her minion clear is not too great. It could just be me. If you guys got any tips for minion killing in general that will work too. Anyways, hope you have a great day! Peace
