Who Wins
- Pre-6: You have slight advantage with Q poke and better wave control, but need to respect Aatrox sustain and Akali's burst potential.
- Post-6: The matchup becomes even as both sides gain strong ultimate engage tools, making positioning crucial for team fights.
Synergy & Trading
- Lead with Q to hit both enemies through minions, then use W for additional damage while Akshan follows up with autos.
- Save E for disengage when Akali tries to engage or to set up picks on overextended enemies.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Focus on roaming after clearing waves quickly with Q, especially to mid lane around levels 4-6 when your charm becomes more impactful.
- Look for roam timings when the enemy duo is low or when you have vision control of river.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste E on poke as it's your primary disengage tool against Akali's R engage.
- Never use R aggressively without vision of enemy jungle as you'll be vulnerable to ganks with no escape tools remaining.
