[9.21] Challenger Ahri Guide Otp Ahri with 1.4 milion Ahri p
Zed is a strong Melee AD assassin champion. For the start of this matchup the first 1-2 waves you can play very aggressive and shove the wave, only shove the 2nd wave if the enemy jungler does not have lvl 2 gank potential. (ex. Jarvan, Reksai, Xin zhao etc.)
After this point you want to keep the wave centralized, or frozen in front of your tower, you can look for EQ combos if there is an good opening, but auto attacks are best so you can keep your mana up, try not to Q the wave much, because you dont want the wave to push. In general play behind your minons cause it will reduce the damage of his Q and throw auto attacks in when he goes for last hits. A big point of this matchup is is dodging the WQE combo. His W has a very longdown and his Q has a 6 second CD without CDR so look to harass him when it is down especially the W since its 22 sec CD lvl 1. so TLDR pre 6. Zed has no sustain try to poke him down when he goes for last hits, play agressive around his W and Q cooldowns, you can try to kill if you poke him down enough and his W is down, since he will have no escape.After level 6 if he is around 60-70% and you hit a charm you can look to go all in especially if his W is on CD. if he Ults you he will always appear behind you so look to charm him EQW and then you can Ult and go all in on him. In general you dont want to be below 40% hp in lane if his ult is up in this case back and then come back out to lane. Keep farming at level 5 orb you out wave clear him, you can look for roams after shoving the lane to help other lanes or your jungler. i will discuss some items to build vs Zed below.
A good way to play vs Zed is crystal and boots into lost chapter, and then seekers so you can tank a little more damage, after this you can go into zhonyas if you are behind, if you are winning the lane you can go ludens. If you are way ahead in the early game you can skip seekers and just go straight into ludens, and then start building zhonyas after, Seekers, then stopwatch for build priority. If you stomp lane you can go the classic build of ludens into morellos!
Akali
Akali is melee Assassin with good gap close, this mostly a skill matchup where you have slight favor if played correctly.
You have a big advantage in pre 6 laning, you can poke her and trade a lot for effective than her. You can play aggressive and shove waves if you want to harass her under turret but be warry of ganks or keep the wave centralized, and poke her a lot. she has very little sustain. Back up and play safe when she uses her Twilight shroud(W) and if she goes in when your marked with Her Shuriken(E) you can look to charm her since she moves in a straight line. Her W has a long cooldown(20 seconds) you can look to play very agressive when its down. if you get her low and hit your charm you can look to go for the kill. When Akali's energy is low you want to look for as much poke as possible. Bait out her W as much as possible as that is her only real safety poke.
After level 6 if your ult is down you need to play very safe. if your ult is up you can still play aggressive. if she ults onto you, you can ult to find a good angle to hit your EQW and then go in for the kill with your other 2 dashes, make sure to watch out for her 2nd R dash because you will be marked. and her damage scales with missing HP so be careful when you are low health. If you have good reaction you can look to Charm(E) when she ults onto you your Charm will stop her dash in progress. Akali's powerspike is when she hits her hextech item so look to kill her before this and be a little more careful after she has it. You have a huge waveclear advantage especially after level 5 orb, so you can always look to shove waves and roam to help your team.
Classic build is fine here First item ludens, 2nd item morellos, and then 3rd item rabadons unless they are stacking MR you can void staff or you can zhonyas if they have a heavy ult champion. or are super heavy AD Team.
Camille
You want to aviod getting hit be her all in(e) When she tries to go all in try to hit your e before she hit her e so you can cansle her e.
You want to freeze against her since shes a meele and you can punish her whenever she goes for cs just be aware of her w she can use it as a poke spell.
Anivia
Ahri can match the Anivia waveclear rly izi you just need to use 2 q and w and some auto to clear the wave.
You can look to set up a gank for you jungle and kill anivia since anivia dosent have some dash or anything espect her w but for Ahri she can just dash thruw the wall.
LeBlanc
You want to waveclear the lane so it get under her tower and look to haras her under turret. since she has rly bad waveclear.
Just be aware of enemy jung ^^
If you can E in time she wont be able to lane the w dmg and you can turn and kill her
Cassiopeia
its hard for Ahri to kill cassiopeia since a good cassipeia takes cleanse and she can just poke with her q. She have same sustain as Ahri. If you ever want to win the 1v1 you need to hit your E then q w. And before she get back her hp you want to hit again and go all in before she gets full hp even if she use cleanse she dies in that case but just be carefull you need to dodge her ult.
There is a easier way to win the matchup and that is you setup a gank and ask your jung to come since shes rly squishy
Annie
Shes no problem aslong you dont get one shoted you can sustain back she has no sustain so just poke her down.
Just look out for her passtive
Aatrox
lvl 1 you want to look to poke him as much as possbile since he has nonthing espect q and the q cd is like 16 sec.
When he gets e he can q e you so be aware of that.
You want to setup gank for you jungle so he can gank you since its abit hard to kill Aatrox with his sustain when you get 6 its rly hard for Aatrox to kill you
Ekko
He cant all in you if he tries you can just e him.
Be CAREFUL with hes w tho you don want to get hit by the w cc because you will take alot of dmg.
Corki
Corki is SO inoying to play against since he can just afk farm and outscale you. You wantto avoid asmuch poke as posible. but you can kill him izi aswell if you hit your charm and hes bellow 60% hp you can kill him then unless he has cleanse or some mr item
Diana
Dodge her q and you be fine.
try to win the lane pre 6.
If you get hit by her q you dont want to be in her ult range you want to back off but if you are in the ult range be ready to e when she jumps in and trade with her.
Azir
Hes nonthing to worry about aslong you dont get poked to much by him.
You can look to all in him once you hit lvl 6.
Fizz
Lvl 1 you want to poke him as much as possibe before lvl 3 he cant go all in on you if he does you win the trade and poke him.
Try to hit e is possible whenever fizz goes for the all in with the q w e.
when you hit 6 be aware that he can q r you. Look to all in when hes e down or when hes low hp
Heimerdinger
You want to kill his turrets[q]
Since hemiger as champion is based on his turret if you kill it he cant do anything. You can look to aim your q on his turret try to hit as many turret as possible
Irelia
You dont want to push against Irelia.
You can look to kill her after lvl 6
Or you can trade when she has no stacks on her passtive. Be aware of your minion hp if its low she can just q it and use her e and go all in
Karthus
Hes rly squishy so look to hit asmuch charm as possible.
He cant win the matchup if your an good Ahri unless hes Faker and hit all the qs or the junger camps you 24/7
Katarina
Be aware of her dagger.
If she ults Aim at her since she cant move or she canceled her ultimate.
try to win Before lvl6
Kassadin
its hard to kill A kassadin because of his passtive but he cant do anything to you than poke you with hes q before 6 you want to look to kill him. But he has a good sustain so its a battle if you can poke him down or not
Malzahar
He cant do anything against you if you are a good Ahri you can look to go all in lvl 6 but take his sheild down before doing that.
You want to hit e before go all in and make sure to know where jungle is.
You can Also ult in press e and canceled his ult and kill him if he dosent ult hes pretty much dead anyway unless your under his tower.
Neeko
Just be carefull of her e dont get hit by it. I like personal like to take tenacity rune againset her and reduce 51% of the cc incase i get hit.
She cant one shot you unless she hit you with full root but if you have tenacity you should be fine
Mordekaiser
you dont need to be scard unlesss hes fed you can just jump around if he ults you.
Lissandra
She cant do anything whitout a jungle she just shove and look to roam
I prefer to take tenacity since shes a champ thats reliying on the jungle. Shes a good champ to setup gank and catch people.
Zoe
Try to avoid asmuch poke as possible.
Do not use ignite unless your going to kill her since she can just pick it up and use it on you. I take tenacity against Zoe
Orianna
Try to look to get the wave controll.
Shes a teamfight champion.
You can easy abvoid her ult by ulting
away. you can also kill her pretty easy since she has no flash.
Yasuo
At lvl 1 you can look to poke him alot alot since he dosent have his e unless they start e but thats bad so yasuo player start q.
When he gets lvl 2 keep you e if you are pushing dont waste e on trying to hit him unless you are 100% sure since if your e is off cooldown he can go all in and take a lot of your hp.
You want to look to hit e when he jump to minion with e since he cant use winwall when hes in e Animation.
When you get lvl 6 thats when you can play abit more agreesive
try to use e to bait out hes w with is like 20+ cd meanwhile Ahri charm is less than that. WIth means you can look to hit another e while hes w is down or if hes low enoght you can all in him since he has rly no escape toll then e but he can only e enemy minion or champion.
Veigar
Hes rly squishi just Dont get bellow 30 % hp he can just press his outplay buttom on you and thats r. You win early game and midgame late game if hes fed he can q r you so be carefull. He can also set up gank be carefull
Xerath
get a boots early game and try to dodge as much poke as possible.
look to hit your e on him and kill him you can go all in with r aswell since he has no dashes
Vladimir
Lvl 1 you want to push the wave with 2 q or 1 q and look to poke him under tower. you want to aviod as much qs as possible you defentive dont wanna get hit by the enpowerd q.
In the first back you dont want vlad to have 1.7k gold otherwise its goona be hard for you since he wil get 2 cdr items. so you want to force him back when you have 1.3 k gold for lost chapter.
When you have lost chapter you can look to poke him down and when hes w poll is down or if hes low hp you can go all in on him.
Qiyana
Be ready to e when she jump on you be carefull if its a good qiyana they will w to dodge your e when they goes in. Try to poke her as much as possible before lvl 3 thats when she can do something.
I would recommend to freeze agaisnt her
Aurelion Sol
Dont let him take controll of the wave you want to take control of the wave so he cant roam.
You can look to kill him before 6 and after 6.
Ryze
Hes really short of mana early game so look to take controll of the wave early game and delay his tear as long as possible. he has no dash so look to all in when you think you can kill him
Talon
Talon is champ where he can 100 to zero you when hes lvl 2 but dont worry aslong as you dont get hit by second part of Talons w you are your fine because he cant proc his passive. look to play around his w cooldown when its off.
BE CAREFULL when your going against a good talon he can all in you and kill you in a second so keep an eye on what he is doing.
You want to kill him early game before he gets ulti since he cant rly all in you with his q because you have e
Sylas
Try to dodge his e its his main engage so if you dodge it you should be fine.
If sylas ult you he takes your ulti.
So try to make him use ult even if you need to ult since he cant take your ult again before you get it because sylas has a cd before he can take the same ulti. he has200% of targets ultimate cooldown that mean you can look to kill him before he can take your ulti again. And this is my go to ban champ
Syndra
Just dodge her q and you be fine be carefull where she place the q you dont want to get hit by the e.
you can look to all in pretty easy since she has no dashes and its rly had for her to hit anything.
Dont go all in when you are low hp since she can just press ulti on you.
Swain
He cant win the lane
If he pokes you just use your q to get back hp
Twisted Fate
You dont want to let Twisted fate to have priority of the lane since he can ult from mid lane to botlane so be aware that you need to stop his tp by using the e.
Its a easier way to stop his ulti and that is by pushing the wave he has to defend his turret and cant use his ult to gank bot or toplane.
Ziggs
try to get prioriti and poke im to death. he was no dash espect for his w so hes a sqiushy champ.
You dont want to let him push since his w destroy a tower bellow X% hp turret
Vel'Koz
You want to dodge as many q as possible.
You want to match the wave against him otherwise he just poke you under the tower.
You can look to all in him After lvl 6 because he has no dashes
Viktor
Try to match his wave earlygame.
You want to force him back as early as possible since he needs his The Hex Core mk-1 witch cost 1050 to be usefull in lane. You can look to all in him After lvl 6 since he has no dashes.
If you want to go all in you can do e-q-autoattack-w-r
but if you want to make sure you hit your and kill them you can ult and use q w but not e because they will try to dodge your e but use your ult to get a good angel and e that will make you higher chance to hit your e and your q and w is probely almost up and use your last ult to finish him.
when your laning against Enemy and they hide under the minion you can make the minion they hide behind 1 autohit. so when you autoattack the minion they stay behind cast you e and it will fell like it went thruw the minion.
You want to look to kill the enemy midlaner when you get lost chapter.
You need to be carefull when you are before you get ulti because Ahri is really squishy champ whitout ulti so be sure to get a control ward when you can and use your trinket to keep youself safe.
You want to change trinket to oracle around midgame because if you teamfight you can use the trinket sneek behind and catch their backline. you also use it to gank botlane and toplane.
You want to look to Gank botlane or toplane with a jung to make a sure enemy dies.
ยจ
Ahri is Sqishy before lvl 6 so dont forget to buy control ward if you have gold over and use your trinked cuz if its a good jungle and understand how Ahri works they will try to gank you before 6
Dont panic when enemy gank you before you have ulti calm down and bait them close to your tower and when you think your e can charm them and make one of them take turret shot you can use it and use every dmg you have on the champion you charmed. and you probably killd the jung or mid you charmed
When you go all in you want to hit your q atlest once but if you can hit
both that will be nice.
You can use your ult to hit your second q.
You can also use your ult to get a good angel.
You can also use ult to jump over a wall and make a catch.
In teamfight alot of things will happen you can calm down and check where carry is and aim right and hit the e that can be game changing.
There is small combo that it can be usefull one day
E-R IT will be harder for the enemy to see the Charm
E-R-w to make it harder for the enemy to see the Charm
Q-flash IF they are low hp and you need flash to close the distance to finish off the champion
E-flash to suprise enemy
R-flash to close the gap
R-e-flash to suprise enemys
A-w it makes your w to hit only 1 target and it will proc electrocute
If you want to check out some specefic matchup you can check out my youtube channel i will start to upload matchup how you go against a specefic champ like Ahri vs Kassadin Etc.. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHTgor3-wRF5Hb2z3CxoiFA
You want to Use Auto attack to poke enemy nonthing else unless they are in the wave so you can hit them with q + the wave early game.
In the early game before the first back you want to use only 1 q on the first wave then on the second wave you use 1 q aswell only 1q.
On the third wave+ you can use 2 qs.
When you are out of mana you probely have enoght for lost chapter if you cs is good enoght other wise you want to have atlest 1085 gold.
So you can buy boots+manacrystal+Tome.
After the first back you can look to poke enemy with e q w Or A+W+A to get electocute proc.
Dont use E to poke unless they are low when you have less than 40% mana.
You can use 2 q + w and some A+w to 1 shot the wave and look to roam,ward or poke enemy under tower.
