-ABOUT ME-

My name is Alex. I m a Gold3 player in the EUNE's servers. My main is obv Katarina and I really love her.She is a very nice and powerful Assasin. Im not the best Katarina Player but not the worst either.

-PROS-

- One of the strongest assassins in the game.
- Don't need mana.
- Can escape scary situations with shunpo, can be used on minions or allies.
- Snowballs very hard.
- AoE damage
- High mobility
- Healing/Damage reduction ability
- An aggresive laning phase.

-CONS-

- Melee attack range
- Brings nothing to the team aside from damage
- If you stun her she is dead

-TEAM FIGHTS-

In Team Fights Kata can easily engage any fight and easily kill every enemy champ. You can Q a minion or an enemy champion and E on the dagger then R and easily kill everybody. Becareful at their stuns. If you are stunned you are an easy kill.

-FARMING-

Try to farm much in the early game to get some core items using your 'Farming Combo's' (E+W+Q+E) or (Q+E+W+E).

Katarina's early game is very strong, level 1 you should play relatively safe and level 2 and 3 you should abuse your power spike and just play really aggressively.Just like the old Kata roaming is very strong you should look to roam whenever possible.

During the mid game Katarina is at her strongest. you should look to teamfight and try to take objectives or even the nexus. At this point you should be able to carry teamfights because you will have lots of dmg.

During the late game Katarina falls off but not that much, as she can still clean up and carry teamfights, you just need to be more careful if you can't oneshot the enemy carries and if the enemy is getting too tanky. The biggest mistake I see Katarina's make is that they have no farm, remember farm is what wins game and it is one of the most important aspects of the game, so don't think that just because it is the late game you don't need to farm, getting gold helps to get items and items = damage

1) Objective. What do you want to achieve in teamfights as Katarina? You want to either deal as much damage as possible or kill the enemy carries. Remembering this is very helpful when making the decision of 'should I go in here?'

2) Patience is a virtue. Learning to wait out certain big CC's that can stop you is key for any Katarina, just wait in the backline until the opportinity arises and BOOM they are all dead.

3) Distract. A very handy trick on Katarina is learning to go in and use E Q W and instantly using Zhonyas. During the 2.5 seconds stasis while zhonyas is active 95% of players will tunnel on you and this gives your team the chance to engage on them. Alternatively you could go in and oneshot the enemy carries, and die for it with GA, while you are invulnerable the enemy are very likely to be distracted and your team has the chance to catch up. This can also be applied to Zhonyas in the same situation.

4)If someone on the enemy team is saving a certain spell for you and you only until you go in, then you either
- Peel for your adc. Jump on whoever is trying to kill your adc and distract and kill them first.
- Don't participate in the fight.. If you don't go in then they won't use that ability and your team can potentially win because of it.

5) Clean Up.. Cleaning up just means you wait untill the latter stages of the fight and go in and play off your resets.

6) Wallhop. Katarina is able to go over thin walls if you set up a dagger right next to it. An example would be the wall behind Krugs or at the back of Dragon Pit.

7) Auto-Attack in passive animation. While you pick up a dagger and spin, you can auto-attack if you're in range.

Hope you really Like it!. Thank you for reading this and I hope that this guide was helpful to you.
