Akali Q description states that it will deal additional damage when akali scores a "Melee" attack, but the mark does not go off when you use her Crescent slash ability or her Essence Shadow ability, so can we either fix the wording on the Q to just Basic Attacks, or make the other 2 abilities suspend the mark?
Kaisa is Hot2 votesCrescent slash isn't a melee attack it's a ranged aoe, shadow dance isn't a melee attack it's a targetted dash, your point?
Melee attack in this game means auto attack. Stop qqing
NoRemorse941 votesI'm sure melee is a bot more broad for just a basic attack. If it is just a basic attack only that suspends the mark than it should say basic attack. The dash I wouldconsider to classify that as a melee attack since its a dash attack on to the enemy champion. Its annoying that when i Q-R into someone it doesn't always suspend the mark.
Selrick0021 votesWhat MaximumKalista said. While R (Shadow Dance) won't proc your Q, if you don't input any other commands Akali should attempt to aa the target:
Patch 1.2.1 If Akali uses Shadow Dance on a champion, she will attempt to attack the target upon successfully arriving
Also RIP synergy: Patch 5.2 E - Crescent Slash "REMOVED" SORRY AKALI: Crescent Slash no longer detonates Mark of the Assassin
Akali atm is at her weakest in the LOL balance scheme. Her aa animation is slow and clunky, they destroyed her W with the remake (only good thing is no more pink wards), and her E is a HUGE energy dump with no way to get energy back except waiting an extremely long time. Her passive's rework is sub-par and hard to use because of her slow aa animation. I remember when she was a monster before patch 5.2, good times :)
