Playing as Akshan

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Extend your boomerang off minions

    Throw Avengerang (Q) through minions toward your opponent: each enemy hit extends its range, and it deals damage both on the way out and on the way back.

  2. Jump off at the right time

    Jump off Heroic Swing (E) as soon as you're well placed: you don't have to finish the swing, and the jump fires one last shot.

  3. Kill the Scoundrel to revive allies

    Focus the Scoundrels marked by Going Rogue (W) first: killing one revives the allies they killed and gives you bonus gold.

  4. Roam along walls

    Roam with Going Rogue (W) along walls and brush: away from terrain, you lose your camouflage quickly.

Playing against Ekko

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Avoid his third hit

    Take short trades: his third hit on you, auto or spell, triggers Z-Drive Resonance (passive), with bonus damage and a burst of speed.

  2. Leave his Q field

    When Timewinder (Q) expands on you, leave the field: it slows you, and the device hits you again on its way back to him.

  3. Get out of his sphere

    Leave the Parallel Convergence (W) sphere as soon as it appears: if he steps into it, it stuns every enemy inside.

  4. Aim where he'll reappear

    When he's low, don't chase him blindly: Chronobreak (R) brings him back to where he was 4 seconds earlier and damages nearby enemies. Ready your spells on that spot.
