DODGE by any chance :)
"I absolutley despise going against Leblanc. Not because she counters akali a lot, but since she's annoying to play against. She's gonna try to fool your mind completely. whenever she goes in for a trade, play agro against her. wait until 6 for a full engage as she can play with you easily." Scyrine
Mordekaiser
"He is strong early game which is the point that you struggle at. He can harass you with his (E) + (Q) combo throughout laning phase which can make it very difficult for you to farm. Play safe, farm as much as you can. If you can manage to solo kill him, great. If not, call for jungler help to secure a kill. Roam and look for picks in other lanes until you can 1v1 him." FalleN3
Syndra
"This lane is a NIGHTMARE pre level 6. She massively outranges you so try your best to avoid her skill-shots. Avoid giving her free harass. She can still hit you hard even under your tower. Farm as much as you safely can and you can try to abuse her cooldowns [especially her (E)] should she miss a spell on you. After level 6 this lane become a lot easier as you can now burst her down 100-0, especially with some jungler help." FalleN3
Fizz
"Fizz is a skill match-up and this lane can go either way. Try your best not to die to him early or you could find that he snowballs off you, likewise you can do the same to him. He has impressive damage throughout all stages of the game but you need to play with caution early as he has much more early potential on you and can all-in you after level 3. Play with caution and DO NOT underestimate his early damage. If you can avoid his ultimate after level 6 you should be able to 1v1 him, although this will still take some doing. He will roam a lot so be sure to follow or be of some other use." FalleN3
Karma
"Karma is a troublesome pick into akali. She can reveal you in your shroud, poke you, and basically play with you. You want her to play agro on you though, and when she has her cc on you, instead of running away fight her. Try to get as good of a trade as possible." Scyrine
Malzahar
"He will push the lane extremely hard which is going to make it very difficult for you to roam. His passive is a problem for you so you need to remove it from him. His voidlings along with the rest of his kit and ultimate will make for an easy kill for him on you. Call for jungler help and try to punish him for any mistakes he makes. Take Teleport for this lane and remind your bot lane to keep a deep ward for you." FalleN3
Diana
"Very hard counter for you as Akali. If the Diana is anywhere near decent this is going to be painful. She can easily out-trade you and she gets tanky too. She has a shield, she get really tanky and once she hits level 6 you are in for a real tough time. You will have to dodge her (Q) during trades in order to negate some of her damage. Use your mobility to your advantage and try to out-roam her and get picks around the map. Farm as much as possible but be aware, this is a TOUGH match-up!" FalleN3
Garen
"A LOT of people have trouble with Garen, and I used to have trouble too. Garen can pressure you, abuse you in shroud, and finish you easily, but it doesn't mean it's not winnable. Akali can easily outplay garen simply by just waiting for him to Q a minion or use any of his abilties on minions. If he doesn't and he goes to Q you, let him hit you but exactly before he does, E away and immediatley start running. Garen typically Q>E, so once you E away he wont be able to hit you. Then, re-engage with E and unload your combo." Scyrine
Annie
"Annie's immobile and very predictable but this doesn't make her an easy match-up for Akali. She has insane burst damage and multiple ways of stunning you. If she ults you and gets her stun off, it is highly likely that you will die. Tibbers does AOE damage so hiding in your shroud will not save you from his damage. Her (W) can also hit you while you are in your shroud. Farm and Roam in this lane. Try only engage on her if her stun is down, otherwise you are likely going to die." FalleN3
