Introduction

Hi guys, my name is Adam and today I'll be taking you through how to become a BEAST with ![]() |
I have one tricked Akali for about three seasons now, starting in bronze and working my way up to platinum, in which I am still climbing :P I was ranked top 10 Akali in OCE before I decided to take a super long break and am now working my way up to rank #1 in OCE before setting my sights on becoming the #1 ranked Akali in the world. |

Anyway enjoy the guide!
Pros
+ Has EVERYTHING you want in an assassin + INSANE BURST + Massive sustain due to her passive ![]() + Can go invisible and blink using her ![]() + High mobility with the ability to stick onto any champion very easily using ![]() + Great split pushing power with the second part of ![]() |
Cons
- Semi-weak early game - Heavily reliant on ![]() - Can be bullied by range very easily early - Hard to come back if she is behind - Champs with point and click CC such as ![]() |
