Who Wins
- Pre-6: You win most trades with W-Q combo if you can land it, especially with Akali's follow-up damage.
- Post-6: You remain strong but must be careful of Ahri's charm interrupting your engage and Aatrox's R sustain.
Synergy & Trading
- Look for W-Q on either target when they step up for CS, then let Akali follow up with her full combo.
- Use E to sustain through poke and reduce their damage when they try to trade back.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Roam after successful trades or when enemies are low and forced to recall.
- Best timings are after level 3 when you have full combo, or when mid lane is pushed and needs assistance.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't W into Ahri when her E is available, as she can charm you mid-dash and turn the fight.
- Never engage Aatrox when he has R available unless you can guarantee a quick kill.
