The return of your Q (Orb of Deception) deals true damage — position yourself so both the outgoing and return hit the target.
Your E (Charm) is your only hard CC: land it before comboing to guarantee your Q and W connect. Without E, your burst is limited.
The 3 charges of your R (Spirit Rush) are offensive tools as much as defensive ones — use one dash to engage, and save one to escape.
Your passive heals you when you land abilities — use Q on the wave to sustain in lane when you're low.
Ahri excels at roaming thanks to her R: push the wave quickly with Q then roam bot or toward the jungle.

Playing against Ahri
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
Stay behind minions: her E (Charm) is blocked by units, and it's her main burst condition.
When Ahri has used all 3 charges of R, she's very vulnerable during the 130s cooldown — track her ult and engage when it's down.
Her Q deals magic damage going out, but true damage on the return — side-stepping the return is more important than the outgoing.
Ahri is strong in midgame thanks to picks with E + R: avoid wandering alone in the jungle when she's MIA.
