Introduction

THIS GUIDE IS INCLOMPLETE I MISSCLICKED AND HIT THE PUBLISH BUTTON BY A MISTAKE

Why should you pick Akali?

CAUSE SHE'S A FLIPPIN' NINJA!

''The Fist of Shadow strikes from the cover of death itself. Do not impede the balance.''

Lore

There exists an ancient order originating in the Ionian Isles dedicated to the preservation of balance. Order, chaos, light, darkness -- all things must exist in perfect harmony for such is the way of the universe. This order is known as the Kinkou and it employs a triumvirate of shadow warriors to uphold its causes in the world. Akali is one of these shadow warriors, entrusted with the sacred duty of Pruning the Tree - eliminating those who threaten the equilibrium of Valoran.

A prodigal martial artist, Akali began training with her mother as soon as she could make a fist. Her mother's discipline was relentless and unforgiving, but predicated on the fundamental principle: ''We do that which must be done.'' When the Kinkou inducted her into the order at the age of fourteen, she could slice a dangling chain with a chop of her hand. There was no question - she would succeed her mother as the Fist of Shadow. She has had to do much in this role which others might find morally questionable, but to her it is in service of her mother's inviolable doctrine. She now works with her fellows Shen and Kennen to enforce the balance of Valoran. This hallowed pursuit has unsurprisingly led the triumvirate to the Fields of Justice.

Back to Top

Team Work

In teamfights your job is to get in deal massive damage to everything around you, and then use W to either get out alive or stay in and suprise your enemies. My combo goes like this to get in use R then use Q (remeber to land an autoattack to trigger the mark), E , and end it with W twillight shroud, repeat it if necessary.

Pros / Cons

Pros:
- She's very OP
- Easy escapes
- High burst damage


Cons:
- Squishy

Runes/Masteries

Runes
Theese runes should let you start with the double buff from her passive .


Masteries
The reason my masteries is this defensive is because i think that Akali is very squsihy at start game.
Back to Top

Creeping / Jungling

Akali is very good at farming and jungling, because of her short cooldown and awesome burst damage. Use all your abilities if needed, your are using energy so you dont have to think about running out.

Tips

Turret dive: If you dive in then make sure you are behind an enemy minion wave. Use to dive in and out.

Escaping: There is multiple ways to escape but my favorite goes like this (in lane) (in jungle): Use to get yourself invisible, then wait a few seconds and use into the nearest enemy creep minion wave, then RUN LIKE HELL!
And of course use if needed.
