Akali destroyed, unplayable

MAAdz·May 31, 2015·1 votes·1,006 views

After the nerf on akali, removing the R and E proc, akali was already weak. NOW, with this so called 'buff', that makes akali's R dash behind the enemy champion was literally the nail on the coffin for this champion. It's better off just to remove her, since its literally unviable to play her. Her combo takes forever to go through because you land 10k miles away from the champion, and when that happens, you just get killed. Team fights she was already worthless, now shes absolute shit, cant even get a single rotation on an adc or squishy.

It feels REALLY sloppy playing her now, absolute trash champion at the moment. Why is riot picking on this champion? A champion that could already be 100% countered with a 100g item, is now unviable, thank you riot.

Uhhhhhhh, they -just- fixed that this patch. Unsure what your complaint is. Just make sure q is on them before you r if you want to land in proc range for sure.

i just played her yesterday, this 'landing behind the enemy' is sloppy and useless and just wastes time on her combo. Its not the same, and never will be, akali should just be removed from the game. By the way, so you cant use R before Qing now to get the proc? Another shit nerf then.

Also, as i said before, you cant catch ANYONE out of position anymore, since you said that you have to Q before R to 100% get the proc. When i played yesterday, i noticed this. Whenever i saw someone out of position, i dashed, used everything i could and guess what? The stupid mark was still active because i didnt have enough time to auto attack, since her R dash is complete shit.

You do realize you land in auto-attack range when you ult, right?

Her e doesn't proc q mark, get used to it. That shit has a 1 second Cooldown at max rank.

Attack Range: 125

Ult

Passive: Akali generates a charge of Essence of Shadow periodically and upon kills or assists, and can store up to 3 charges total.

Active: Akali moves through shadows to quickly strike through the targeted enemy, dealing magic damage and consuming a charge of Essence of Shadow.

Wikia notes:

The closer Akali is to her target, the greater the strike through distance. At point blank range Akali will be placed 200 units behind her target, while shadow dancing at maximum range will only result in a 100 unit strike through. Additionally, if Akali's target is affected by Mark of the Assassin, the strike through distance will be halved (50 at maximum range, 100 at point blank range).

Do you know what you just learned today?

Her Q's cast range is almost the same as her ults. (600-700)

If you use your Q on someone, you will land 50-100 units next to the target until the mark is consumed.

If you use your ult at maximum range, you will land 100 units next to the target.

Your basic attack range is 125.

So YES, you land within auto-attack range when you ult. Don't sit there and try to contradict someone who actually researched this shit.
