Hey, I was taking a look at your guide and saw you don't have the Kled matchup listed. Akali is a matchup I face from time to time, but I often win against them since they won't know how to interact with Kled. I'll give you my POV on this matchup, which you could implement however you'd wish :)

As Kled, I want to look to land either my E or Q to successfully trade with Akali, since this reveals her in her W. Without these two spells, I am utterly useless against her. Dodging requires a well-timed E from Akali, preferably to the side, since a backwards E still allows my Q to land.
Akali should look to run Kled down with Q when Kled's E is down, but make sure to hold Akali's E to get out of Kled's Q tether. In my opinion, the biggest mistake Akali players make is not holding their E and end up getting caught by Kled's Q pull.
If Akali ever uses her ult, I should already be dismounted or the first cast should dismount me. Why? Kled's dismounted kit cannot reveal hidden enemies, which makes it (nearly) impossible to remount. This gives Akali W much more value. Additionally, Akali R can easily execute the vulnerable dismounted Kled.
In case Kled ever ults, Akali's W will make her completely invulnerable to the charge, since Kled R cannot hit hidden enemies.

Do with this information as you please and be sure to let me know if you have any questions.

Hi ! I don't have Kled as a listed matchup because I have honestly never faced him in midlane.
But that's definitely some valuable advice that I'll keep in mind for my games, thank you for your comment!

Hi, amazing guide ! Thank you !

hi! as a guide creator, i was wondering how you did that ombre effect on your words? (looking at your summoner spells chapter) it looks really cool, and i've never seen anyone do that before, it's really impressive :)!

Hi! Thank you so much :)
Unfortunately I don't remember who I learned to do the ombre effect from as it was years ago :c From my code it looks like I just straight up individually colored each letter, probably through playing around with hexcodes and just going from darker to lighter shades.

My code for the word flash

I'm sorry if this isn't the most effective way of doing it, maybe you have a higher chance of finding the answer you're looking for on the Mobafire discord..

By the way I looked at your neeko guide, it's without a doubt the most beautiful guide I've ever seen on this site :d

As someone who used to main Akali I wish I saw this back when i used to main her. What an amazing guide brosky and it well deserves that 10/10 rating. Just curious whats your rank since it mentions here your diamond, not that there is anything wrong with being diamond but for a guide to be this extensive and ur diamond. I would be shocked and can only say well done and enjoy the rest of your day

Hi! Thank you so much :)
I actually just reached diamond two weeks ago after being hardstuck for years xd though I stopped playing ranked from season 12 till season 15. I've been learning a lot more about the game recently and really want to get better and add more stuff to my guide. Hopefully master next season :D

goodluck u got this brosky!

I have a question. Is assassin/AD akali still viable? i haven't seen it in a while, especially in high elo.

(9) |

Almost all of Akali's abilities scale with AD so it is technically viable.. but definitely not worth building over AP :D Your R2 only scales with magic damage, you would be sacrificing a lot of burst / one shot potential

got it. akali is a burst champion after all so it makes since. i saw at one point ad was built but ap is very powerful on her. thank you.

I registered on this web-site just to thank you for the guide. Having a lot of fun playing Akali in normal game even though I lose a lot, but who cares what's happening in normal games when I only learn :)

Still a very solid and useful guide, really beginner-friendly, thank you so much!

This guide is AWSOME! i hope i can get better with akali after reading this!

Hii ! Thank you so much ! I guarantee you, with or without the guide you will get better if you put your mind into it ! Good luck :)

Honestly your builds and rune are ****.
You're the kind of player that only plays with burst style but you won't teach them how to use it at all.
The best part of your guide is the matchups but makes no sense the rune and build that you are recommending. Also why did you said Katarina it's a skill matchup? Its one of the easiest matchup to Akali but maybe because of your **** burst build.

If you don't agree with my playstyle, why don't you make your own guide instead ? :D I'd be happy to see what comes out of it !

PS : Katarina is an easy matchup only if your opponent has no idea what they're doing, which is often the case in low elo :)
