The most impressive thing about Akali

PapaGreg21·Sep 21, 2016·3 votes·854 views

She is a stealthy ninja that ambushes her enemies with 2 weapons the size of hockey sticks. Think about how difficult that is. I'd get tired just carrying them across my driveway.

Hockey sticks? Not quite that size

You are right. There are huge metal components on the end which would make these even heavier than something so light.

except when your enemies pink ward your shroud, counters your entire defense mechanic with 75 gold.

akali needs a rework imo

We also have people lifting anchors and giant swords onehanded.

These are Akali's weapon and the right proportion as well, it used to be a tool for harvesting rice that farmers used as a defense mechanism.

The size is nowhere near that of a hockey stick, even though, akali's seem to be bigger than the regular ones, take in account also that akali is a 16 years old girl and that she's crunched most of the time

Here's an accurate size representation: http://previews.123rf.com/images/talanis/talanis1303/talanis130300084/18482835-Man-in-karate-gi-holding-a-pair-of-kama-Stock-Photo.jpg

yes and no, her weapons are bigger because well, this is a fantasy game but the way she uses them is exactly like someone would use a pair of kamas in real life, there was an image of that guy in akali's pose as well and considering that she throws it for her Q, it shouldn't be as big as it's shown in game.

Again, it's fantasy and her weapons are design to stand out not as a real representation of size. Kamas are small and no one is able to wield two scythes or fight with two hockey sticks.

She also throws a crab leg that is like 4 feet long.
