Playing as Akali

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Leave the ring for your auto

    After each spell that hits, step out of the Assassin's Mark (passive) ring: your next auto gains range and damage.

  2. Mark before you leap

    Mark your target with Shuriken Flip (E) before leaping with Perfect Execution (R): recasting Shuriken Flip takes you back to them, even after your leap.

  3. Dive inside your smoke

    Cast Twilight Shroud (W) to dive under the enemy tower: inside the smoke you are invisible and untargetable, but an auto or a spell reveals you briefly.

  4. Save your second dash to finish

    Save the second dash of Perfect Execution (R) to finish: its damage grows with the target's missing health.

Playing against Renekton

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade when he's under 50 Fury

    Take a trade when his Fury is under 50: above that, Ruthless Predator (W) destroys your shields and stuns you twice as long.

  2. Trade after his dashes

    Take a trade once he has used both Slice and Dice (E) dashes: it's his only way to reach you or get out, on a 16 to 10 second cooldown.

  3. Back off when he casts Dominus

    Once he hits level 6, back off when he casts Dominus (R): he gains max health, builds Fury every second, and damages enemies around him.

  4. Drag the game out

    If you survive his first minutes, play for time: Renekton looks to get ahead in lane, before everyone has their items.
