Hi everyone, just wanted to throw a shout out that my ign is also Xalrons, and this is my first complete guide on the site, so any help on the design aspect would be great!

This build is designed keeping high-level play in mind. I don't snowball, but I focus on having a very strong early game. This gets Akali rolling equally as hard throughout the rest of the game. Starting off with Sheen and having Ignite scores a lot of early game kills. Taking Merc Treads and Rylai's afterwards will keep you alive once those Oracle's start coming out. Lich Bane and Zhonya's next, followed by whatever is most appropriate. Obviously avoiding death is a goal, but your opponents will end up hating you a lot, and as long as your ranged carry gets fed, it's all right to have some deaths.

Build guide is in the sig, linking twice for good measure! http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/build/akali-ready-and-willing-44394

Please add a comment if anything at all pops in your head, and thanks for reading. =)

I like what you've done with your masteries - just barely getting the 2 points in Brute Force to proc your passive. Good choice of items - Void Staff is a very smart choice in the end considering your lack of magic penetration early-game. It's a good guide that's a bit more AP-oriented - the only criticism I have is that it's relatively standard. You see a lot of items on this Akali that you see on most Akali (Hextech Gunblade, Rylai's, Lich Bane), although one major thing you do have going for you is that you do not use Mejai's. The guide itself is in-depth with good explanations on just about everything.

Two more things to help you out:
1. Instead of putting in full-size pictures, try placing encoding tags to have pop-ups appear and to make your images fit better into your text. Place two brackets around the item name to do so. For example, putting two left brackets and two right brackets around Rylai's Crystal Scepter yields Rylai's Crystal Scepter. If you don't see what I mean, just quote this post and look at the code.
2. Go a bit more in-depth into Akali's personal playstyle, like what to do in 1v1s, in 2v2s, and in team fights. You do go a little into this, but you don't mention skill combos, attack patterns, or who to prioritize.

I didn't know how to reduce the size of my pictures, so that's awesome.

And you also mentioned the one thing I knew I was lacking in my guide, so I suppose I should add more.

Thanks <3
