Who Wins
- You win levels 1-3 through superior range and poke with Q-W combos, but Akali wins at level 6 due to her all-in potential with ultimate.
- Your early game advantage disappears once she gains access to her mobility and burst damage.
How to Trade
- You should poke with Q-W when Akali goes for CS, then immediately back away to avoid her Q return damage.
- Never extended trade as she will out-damage you in prolonged fights, especially after level 3.
Wave Control
- You want to maintain a slow push to keep minions between you and Akali, making her Q harder to land on you.
- Avoid hard shoving unless you have vision, as this leaves you vulnerable to ganks and all-ins.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You must never use your E aggressively for damage as it's your only escape tool against Akali's engage.
- Don't stand too close to walls where she can easily land her E, and avoid fighting in her shroud where you lose vision.
