How to play against Akali top lane?

You can't trade, you can't sustain her damage, she never runes out of energy (nonstop spam), you can't dodge her Q... When you try to farm under tower she still pokes you rly hard with her undodgeable Q.

It's an unplayable laning phase for me when facing Akali. Btw I looked up akali on google and I just noticed riot games seems to be obsessed with that champion lol. Look at all the skins:

You don’t. She’s one of those champion that you can’t outplay. You have to sit and hope she fucks up bad enough that you physically can punish her.

It’s her game and you get to sit and watch her play it.

Don't walk into her passive autos or w and respect the range of her R. So many people let her Q auto them and do nothing back.

If she Q's you, just walk away. You still outrun her even if you're slowed by Q because she has to run back to get her passive auto.

urgot and kled do well into her and renekton just smashes her.

hex--->executioners--->mercs for bruisers. Then just melt her. (cheaper than gunblade+boots)

Tanks specters--->bramble--->mercs (its roughly the cost of gunblade+boots) ---- your goal is just not to feed her. tp bot gank mid duo invade influence the map as best as you can. The same deal with Akali, if you can't kill them just roam. objectives > kills.

Don't think about the game linearly in 1 lane. Destroy other lanes and win with pressure. It doesn't matter if top falls or she gets a couple of plates if you get control over drag and ur bot snowballs out of control.

You just need to respect her by keeping your distance and using ranged abilities to farm rather than trading if you have one. She is naturally strong into most melee matchups with the exceptions of like Kled, and Renekton. I'm not going to defend the state of her kit right now though, I will admit that rito has no idea what they are doing with the champion.
