Akali has more mobility and is safer in fights that Kat (not really Diana). She is also a bit tankier, has built in sustain, no mana, and has super good burst.
Gunblade is bad on Kat...waste of a lot of gold.
For AP Xin, no clue. Ask DarkPercy. I'm pretty sure you get a malady somewhere though.

I'm always interested in getting better, and if you can help I'm all for that. I am stuck in B5, and can't seem to carry games hard (or often, I guess) enough to get out. For every game that I go big and carry there are 1 or 2 more that I do well, but not well enough to carry the whole team. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, and if you want to teach me (whatever form that comes in) just add me in game (CardMinnow) or send me a PM here, I generally get on around 9-10 PST most days. Thanks
Well right off the bat I notice your TF build. Try running Lich bane rush into hourglass into deathcap, it's super strong. With TF, a few things that you should specifically know are that you should wait to pick your cards during your ult (while you port you can draw a card), and make sure to let your teammates know before you ult. Use blue or red cards and Q's for harass mostly, golds don't do as much damage.
Make sure to ward enemy wraiths, and look through this thread for some general mid tips I give. If there are any specific questions you have feel free to ask. I added you!

Hey guys.
Well i'm nowhere close to you guys, only lvl 26 :P. There have some great tips here so far and I hope to see more.
I've been playing Kat for a while now and love her kit and playstyle. I just find it hard to deal with better burst champs mid in early game and going against a tanky team comp and was wondering if you had some advice for those situations. Bettering my game in mid overall would also be a good thing:)
[as a side note: Wrath i've read your Kat guide and agree with most of what you say there and have seen the impact of it in my games, so thnx for that]

Always go on the carries, and if you are having difficulty in a mid matchup just shove lane and roam bot.
