Katarina is my second favorite champion in game because of her awesome quick cooldown nukes, her great harassing with bouncing blade and her DEATH LOTUS kills squishys and other champs in seconds. She is also great for Ganking, chasing and running away because of her quick cd abilities.

Killerinstict> KI
BouncingBlade> BB
DeathLotus> ULt (spray and pray) :P

if you want to be a hardcore carry pick mid as kat because most squishys are mid like Ash, Karth, Leblanc, Kennen etc. Its so easy harrassing them with bouncing blade behind ur minions. Farm by spraying ur skill bouncing blade and get some extra gold by SHUNPOing to a dieing minion. If u lane against ash keep pushing to farm then let her push when she has half hp... SO then Shunpo>Ignite>BouncingBlade it should get u that kill unless she Flashes out.

U should be pushing mid so hard that ur enemy has to recall when they do go gank either bot or top which ever the enemy is pushing harder. Just (PING) ur target so allies know when they engage just ___killer instinct>shunpo>ULT>bouncingblade>ignite________ they should drop fast unless they are really tanky. Oh and remember if theres a healler on other team or ash is using a put KI>BB on her so she hardly heals from that pot!!!

GEt that banshees for their CC or disable champs! and alaways wait for a TANK to start the fight do not jump in by urself unless ur gareenteed a kill or 2 its way better if a guy tanks like shen or malph goes great with ur ult :) unless ur OP like me 8/1/4 most games then just KILL EM

Quick Cooldowns
Great Passive (double kill gets ur ult back up)
TURRENT DIVING IS A BREEZE (just shumpo for kill and shumpo out to your minion)
BEST Mid unless going against heimy or mord :/


OPTIONAL: you can substitute Will of ancients for hextech gunblade and Banshees if they suck for Morellos Evil tomb for AP and CD reduction
