Who Wins
- You dominate levels 1-3 with your passive stacks and Q resets through minions to gap-close and out-trade.
- At level 6, you lose the advantage as Akshan gains execute potential and mobility tools that make him much harder to catch.
How to Trade
- You should look for all-ins when you have 4+ passive stacks and low-health minions to Q through for gap-closing.
- Use your E to set up guaranteed engages when he's positioned poorly or has used his E.
Wave Control
- You want to create minion advantages by hard pushing early levels to set up Q resets for trades and all-ins.
- Maintain minion control in the center of the lane where you have maximum Q reset potential.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You cannot let Akshan poke you down for free in early levels without responding with trades.
- Don't waste your Q on minions when Akshan is in range to punish, and never engage without passive stacks or minion setup.
