Champion Build Guide
Information about the champ.
The type of champion Akali is, is a little bit unique, she is an assassin (that she jumps in trying to finish off the enemy ADC), but her damage isn't instant. She has combos and in 90% of the times, she needs to play around her shroud (W).
Abilites
Passive (Assassin's mark): Using an ability on an enemy champion creates a large ring around them. If Akali leaves the ring, her next auto attack is enhanced with bonus range and damage. She also gains a short burst of movement speed.
Q spell (Five Point Strike): Akali throws knives in a direction. They deal magic damage. Enemies hit at max range are slowed.
A tip for using Akali Q: Is to make sure you always keep a track on her energy, it's easy to get caught up in using her Q as the CD is so low.
W Spell (Twilight Shroud): Akali drops a smoke bomb and restores some energy. While inside the smoke Akali is invisible and untargetable.
Attack and abilities briefly reveal her.
E Spell (Shuriken Flip): Akali Throw a Shuriken and flips backwards. The first enemy hit is marked. Akali can dash to the marked target.
Akali's shroud (W) can also be marked and dashed to.
R Spell (Perfect Execution): Akali Dashes to a location, stunning enemies in her patch.
After a delay, she can dash again. The second dash deals execution damage to enemies in it's path.
You can also extend the range of both R casts with flash!

Combos
In the lane, you always want to hit enemies with the tip of your Q to proc passive aa instantly.
So it will be like this Q > P aa > Q
Skirmish combo:
E > P aa > Q > W > P aa
Most basic assassination combo:
R > E > P aa > Q ( > W > R)
So it will be like this Q > P aa > Q
Skirmish combo:
E > P aa > Q > W > P aa
Most basic assassination combo:
R > E > P aa > Q ( > W > R)
Laning phase
Melee matchups are easy in comparison to a mage with long range.
Your best bet in the laning phase is to farm up with Q and shroud. Your goal is to survive mage poke.
When you hit level 6 you will most likely have the opportunity to go for a kill against mages.
Akali loses to a lot of tanky/bruisers matchups like Renekton and Kled.
How to win hard matchups is to freeze as close to the turret range as possible.

Power spikes and roaming
Look to abuse Akali's level 6 and Hextech Gunblade powerspikes.
Akali can almost take every single roam route from mid lane, by using her E to jump over walls.
Typical roam pathing: Go to enemy raptor entrance E or plant over Krug wall and come from behind.
