Hey! If this video helped you improve & you are trying to get better at League of Legends check out my coaching program: wtl.lol/mysterias Looking forward to seeing you there, if you have any questions feel free to reach out ♥
I saw this guide and instantly thought about Curtis... amazing to see you here cheering for someone else good work...both of you help enormously and work so hard...TNX dudes
I respect that you also show the way you lose games. A lot of content creators have such high egos that they would not dare to show their bad plays, even for educational purposes.
Hi coach! I just wanted to tell you how gratefull I am for all the content you put out. I discovered you this season when I came back to league after some years away from the game. Your videos and guides alongside Curtis, the BBC podcast and Shok have made me a much better player in such a small amount of time. I feel like I'm playing at my best level ever, my view of the game has shifted and it's deeper than ever and I'm enjoying it more than ever before. Thank you and keep up the good work! Greatings from Spain!
Yes theres just so many I dont know where to start. I really have been hoping for any content on Viktor. I really dont understand when to pick him over other mages like Syndra for example. Also been a while since Ive seen anything on Azir/TF. Nemesis has also been pocket picking Lucian for fun I kinda enjoy it too lol @@CoachMysterias
particularly after the e nerf...and the MR nerf i think its more viable than the lichbane burst build small change to how you play maintains good damage
I’ve tried this build and it feels so weird to me 😞 if I’m toplane and I get super fed it feels just like burst Akali with 2k more hp(due to item+xp gap) but otherwise I feel like a hyper mobile mordekaiser with non of his upsides like cc/shielding:/ and because ap burst mages feel really stupid strong rn with the shatter/shadow item combo, it feels like playing her bruiser build is missing a lot lot of damage. Am I missing something I can fix to get more value of out liandries? (Conq +rift should give a lot of drain/healing on paper, but if fed, the enemies don’t survive long enough to see you lose health to heal anyways) just feels super weird to me and I’d love to run this build in places where I need ap/a bruiser
@@isaiahchapman8616 the bruiser/teamfight build is a niche scenario and shouldn't replace the assassin one. however when you do end up building it, i'd recommend playing for your team more as a frontliner, playing a lot slower with your q and passive. i usually only go this build vs tanky comps.
@@jon9544 tried it some more today and i definitely found more success against tanky comps, or comps that would oneshot me usually. found it very difficult to play on the frontline as id often w during fights, which in my elo is like a reverse taunt lol.
Great content, i love that im watching this after vsing a Katarina and experienced the same issue with the trading patterns with aggressive Q’s. Thanks for the detailed matchup tiers and gameplay examples!
Have been thinking about swapping to mid lane for more than 2 months now, and this guide on my favourite assassin in the game finnaly convinced me to do so. Great job, insane quality of content!
finally a detailed s14 guide. I have almost 200k mastery on this champion across multiple accounts but this is the first season Ive actually decided to onetrick her.
This is some work, great guide, much appreciations. Did you mention the following tip? I didn't hear or see in the guide, sorry if I missed it, but you can already click autopathing while hitting your Q, this way you are a small portion faster out of the circle (especially on red site).
Just started to play lol and i'am completely rinced, but that guide shed a lot of light as to what to do and when to do it ( the right way ). Much thanks
Have been a very casual Akali player since season 2, when i started playing League, which was sometime after Diana was released and before Rengar whom came afterwards and 12 years later of playing on and off, I finally decided to actually try and improve for once in my career and with my favourite mid laner. Slowly trying to drill the drills (idk if i view that as a pun or nah xD) into my head and muscle memory. This is gonna be one hell of a ride.
bree-are 🤣Dude this is awesome. Wish we had more coaches like you in other roles. Been playing Akali for fun on second account and this is gonna help me so much! TY
Holly, guide perfect, il mainer akali, ant last time have real misunderstanding why im losing so hard. After watching first 1h, and trying in game i have 7game winstrik and play like god. Thank u so much, really useful guide, and good great work. Il subscribe to u man)
I want to add that at 1:20:07 faker autos the middle caster also so that all caster minions target one melee. This makes it so that katarina cannot q to cs all three melees
I'll be updating this comment as i watch the video to point out stuff 1: In the Electrocute Setup the best "Hunter" rune is Relentless Hunter. Ult Hunter on Akali isn't too good since her ult has already pretty high uptime Meanwhile Relentless hunter helps a lot with roaming around, especially if you don't run TP, which you often wont, in favour of ignite, if you go for the turbo lane-stomping setup that is Electrocute page. 2. As you said, Akali doesn't generally take Tabis, as Shroud can take care of AAs already. Notable exception to this, is Toplane when Laning into Riven. As Tabis absolutely cuck her They're good because Riven can damage Akali fairly easily in Shroud, since 80% of her kit is AOE damage. Riven also suffers heavily from even a bit of Armor, since she's pure Physical Damage and has no innate Pen. The Tabi passive also heavily reduces her passive Damage. All of these things combined, make it much harder for Riven to quickly burst you down to 30% HP and finish you off with her R2. 3. All-In Combo Remember, Akali's E and R, will usually both Spawn and Proc the passive by themselves, as the dash will push Akali out of the Ring. For example, in you All-In on Rumble, you Q and then walk back to pick up Passive and then R1. That's not necessary. If you Q>R1, the R1 will bring Akali out of the Ring or at the least at the very edge, and proc the passive anyways, making for a much faster and smoother combo, as walking backwards both slows the combo down and gives time to the enemy to react if the have the tools to.
@@CoachMysterias I also agree I always preferred relentless, but ime it caters more to an early roamer playstyle to benefit from the bonus as early as possible to get those stacks. Always fun zooming around on her :) Ult hunter could be better in the solo lane maybe. Also think it could be worth mentioning taste of blood into melee matchups since it's pretty free procs. Even ingenious hunter is viable if you anticipate an early zhonyas but more of a 4fun rune def weaker than the other two mentioned.
It would be great to see full game live commentaries as well in order to get you mindset in the middle of the action if possible :D You covered a lot of really great stuff in this tho, thank you for the guide!😊
@@CoachMysterias I climbed to emerald but cant win a single game once I am facing better players than me I lose all my HP when I try to CS early, I was studying the mid and late game in plat but in emerald I am back to reviewing my level 1-4 😢😂 I always look to this guide for learning
Hi! I was wondering if you know about the Korean Akali build shojin > riftmaker > zhonya's etc. And what ur thoughts on this build are? When would I build it over your ap teamfighting build? Is it good or bad?
Is it every worth taking ignite? Thinking it is probably necessary into sylas or swain, and in those circumstances do you opt for flash or tp secondary.
35:00 one thing I think it's not said is that alkalis q has slightly longer range on the edges, so from blue side if you throw it aiming for the edge of it you get insta passive without even walking
Came here from the MLA discord in light of Akali being approved 😉 love the way you break things down, so easy to understand. Do you have any recommendations for good items in the current patch after the core build is complete? Void staff for more magic pen?
Thank you for your content its great! I did want to ask you. Ive seen some akaki players starting eclipse into AP items. What are your thoughts on this??
Define the teamfight build for my by: What scenario counts more toward the games where you want to build it over lich based assassin itemisation? Its based on how the teamcomps or the early skirmishes look like before or around/bit after 1st recall ?
Mainly games in which the enemies have tanky members that we cant assassinate in the sidelane OR games in which your teammates want to be playing around grouped fights and are too vulnerable to you being on the sidelane vs hard engage. enemy team ahs 2 or more tanky - ish members are usually enough for me to instantly go that build
Why does building Hextech alternator first reach spikes sooner? Aren't you building sorcs after anyway? Or did you mean it helps because the AP helps farming?
thank you for the guide, i am new to midlane(transitioning to it from top) and i only play akali right now. what champions would you recommend to learn beside her to round out a champion pool? i think qiyana looks cool.
@@CoachMysterias qiyana and katarina look cool, the other characters that interest me are TF, Asol, Syndra, qiyana, katarina, yone, sylas, maybe viktor or anivia as well.
@@honorducky Well for gold you definitely have a taste of the harder champs in the game :P . I do think for gold a champ like Akali should be doable as long as you understand shes going to be very hard. Otherwise i think asol is a very solid option overall
I play Akali, Yone, malz/asol, and tried naafiri...since Yone and even more Akali requieres so much time I choosed easy champions that do other things/type of damage to compliment that...also if they take anti jumpers like Taliyah or vex...as a solid BRONZE player I think it's a solid pool.
What do you think aboiut always running conqueror on Akali? I always take conqueror on Akali on all my games, and so far it works really good, I just take to or ignite depending on the match up.
i think in higher elos you need fleet vs ranged since a lot of enemies will know how to space better and fleet helps massively with that. but otherwise conq is good!
Really good guide, after watching it instatly had few solid games. The only thing I don't agree with is placing Crime City Akali into "Don't" category, it's sooo good. The Q animation is insane, it has this cool sound efects when the daggers hit the groud. Like, it sounds very realistic. DRX Akali is not that great imo, the R2 animation appears slower than on other skins. It's probably just visual, but still, in other skins her R2 looks almost like a blink, in DRX u can almost predict it. My favourite are probably Infernal / Crime city (recommend green chroma) and Star Guardian (blue chroma). Star Guardian is so nice because of how she walks / runs and also the passive proc + q - passive proc + q - etc looks really smooth ( i guess because of the walking animation ). I remember even Bwipo mentioned Crime City is one of the best Akali skins. About Coven, it's nice with the white (Destined) chroma ( i don't remember how I got it, but I don't think you can buy it, perhaps with some bundle ). Great guide anyway, I went from having very flippy games to more stable, playing around my ult and reducing the number of random fights I take when I don't have a spike. It's still a lot of work to improve, but I enjoy playing akali so it's fine. Don''t think I'll exit emerald this season, but perhaps next if I keep at it. GGs!
Do you have any tips for enemies that can neutralise lane easily and have better wave clear then you do. I feel like i want to roam to do something and get the snowball going but if the roam doesn’t work out you lose so much for it.
Well... everybody and their brother recommended it... Maybe it was meta in earlier seasons? It made sense to me for the passives, but man... i always thought "why not buy alternator? it always has extra damage!"@@CoachMysterias Thank you for your input!
As a bronze player I agree to disagree...even if she is mechanicly hard you can get good at her if you almost one trick her ...and I find it really easy to stomp cause my enemies are bronze too...I watch lots of content and I expect them to zone, auto, harass me, space, tether, etc...and they never do, so easy to capitalize on mistakes, used to take fleet, but is so unnecessary, most of the times get great results even with electrocute because of that.
imo lich bane is not a good item on akali, storm surge is miles btter. Lich bane can be decent espeically in ad matchups but just think theres better opts.
Both items are built for the same reason. Damage. The difference is that one actually scales in late game too and it's all in all more consistent and works with akali well. Stormsurge is bad

@@CoachMysterias TNX man... appreciate you took the time to respond
I'll be updating this comment as i watch the video to point out stuff

Good job Tim!

guided beautifully
Love your guides!
i just picked Akali for the first time in ranked ,watching this mid game we`re winning this one Lets gooooo!!!!!!

in the end skins are subjective ^^
@@CoachMysterias no skin = no win :D jk, totally agree!
Do you think that lich bane is still worth it after the 5% AP nerf ?
Probably yeah!
Do you have any tips for enemies that can neutralise lane easily and have better wave clear then you do. I feel like i want to roam to do something and get the snowball going but if the roam doesn’t work out you lose so much for it.
I recommend checking out the E usage backwards in the trading pattern section that combo works wonders vs those champs
any chance of a quick update to the items runes section since changes and nerfs 14.12?
The Items and runes section hasnt changed at all really! both are still incredibly viable
im picking up akali, is there an updated version for 14.22? All builds lead to storm as first instead of lich
You can go Storm/ Lich/ Proto rush into shadowflame secondary depending on what item you prefer!
@@CoachMysterias is there a huge difference if i go storm/lich first or is it a matter of preferences?
@@khloepatra Preference imo!
Any use cases for ignite over TP?
Preference! it does complicate our mid game though so i personally never took it
Whats your oppinion on building sheen first?
Sheen is one of the worst items you can get imo. Def recommend not building that hahaha
Well... everybody and their brother recommended it... Maybe it was meta in earlier seasons? It made sense to me for the passives, but man... i always thought "why not buy alternator? it always has extra damage!"@@CoachMysterias Thank you for your input!
does r1 into q only work if you are not right on top of them? It seems that you can't actually cast any abilities until r1 ends?
Im not sure its a feel thing for me it kinda always work how i want?
I main Neeko but
U make Kali look cool..
She IS cool :D
Finally!
Blood Moon Akali Skin best skin in the game
The akali bible must be worshipped 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
When your enemies say akali is brainless - only if you can make her look brainless.
What rank/ELO do you recommend for players learning akali?
I think plat + is good! If you really love her you could try her in gold too
As a bronze player I agree to disagree...even if she is mechanicly hard you can get good at her if you almost one trick her ...and I find it really easy to stomp cause my enemies are bronze too...I watch lots of content and I expect them to zone, auto, harass me, space, tether, etc...and they never do, so easy to capitalize on mistakes, used to take fleet, but is so unnecessary, most of the times get great results even with electrocute because of that.

Both items are built for the same reason. Damage. The difference is that one actually scales in late game too and it's all in all more consistent and works with akali well. Stormsurge is bad
Yeah, storm nerfed to the ground, does less damage and has higher CD...
yea akali is overwhelming if you are a minecraft player
