My thoughts on Akali (no rant)

(Just played one game on training room, can't play her anywhere)

Passive: it feels reeeeaaaly akward, when you jump on your enemy, but you have to walk away from them to enter the circle, dmg is meh Q: Too high energy costs. Why the fuck it's an AOE piercing ability, it let's her wave clear, decently, at no mana cost. Heck, Fizz at least uses mana if he needs push wave. W: It's quite useless, it's just a pain in the ass having to wait 10s for the shroud to disappear, and the kill the Akali that should have die these 10 s ago E, it's fine, could get more dmg tbh. R: Too fast dash, it's really hard to react in time, Dmg is OK. Time before 2nd cast could be reduced by 50%

Akali without ult lacks the ability to assassinate, but when she gets it, she returns to the point before rework:She got ult, you are dead

What are your thoughts?

They need to buff the speed buff from her passive.

She cant kill with just ult. She needs to set up first.

Disagree with some of this...

Q is high because it is strong and easily sets up her passive. W also adds energy so you can get a third Q off, if you just spam everything you will run out of energy W gives energy and also lets you tower drive very easily and avoid targeted spells and autos, not how you could see this as useless, if anything it is too strong E is fine, it doesn't do more damage because it sets you up immediately for your passive damage, then when you second E to the champ, use your passive, Q and your passive damage is ready to go again. The first part of E where it shoots out could be a little faster though R there is time between the 2 so that the other player can react and not die instantly, the second part of R does insane damage

Assassinating people without ult is easy with an item or 2, you just need to land E and they are basically dead with your combo, no ult needed

Running out of energy in a teamfight is the problem, you can use 3 q, and then you re uselesss for some time. But maybe it should stay high as it is

W energy is nice. Towerdiving with w is problematic, if you hit them you ll get on shoot, and THEN become invisible

E is fine, it doesn't do more damage because it sets you up immediately for your passive damage, then when you second E to the champ, use your passive, Q and your passive damage is ready to go again. The first part of E where it shoots out could be a little faster though

No opinion here

R there is time between the 2 so that the other player can react and not die instantly, the second part of R does insane damage

But you have to land the E, which is easy to avoid,i mean...really easy
