Tips for Akali users?
I need some tips for laning, killing, and team fights. Also, is she an easy champ to use? Everyone's saying that but I certainly think she's not too easy.
Item build priority would also be very helpful.

Versus certain champs you will have to learn who you can duel pre-6 and post-6.
You want to rush 
on your first return with a few health potions if possible.
Then 
+ 
+ 
as core items. Boots between hour glass is a preference. I choose hour glass, because around this point of the game you are usually being focused.
Other items and/or build paths are just situational.
Don't pick akali vs burst CC mages and if you're struggling in lane roam bot post-6 for a double kill, Tower, and dragon if it goes perfectly
- press tab freqently.. are they carrying a pink ward? you cant fk around if they do
- toss down a shroud, its your panic button lol
- cs with Q and that spinning thingy, kinda like katarina
- you aint killing shit till lvl6 or without a jungler gank
- killing people depends on how dumb they are.. cuz it requires more than 1 R
I honestly havent played Akali but I've played Talon and in team fights I sorta stand around the edges shifting constantly till I see the chance to kill their adc or whoever i need dead unless ur fed, then you might as do your linear combo on everyone you can and get that penta kill
Know your match up: If it's a pure skill shot champion you can start boots and pots, if you can dodge their skills then use Q to harass and auto attacks to farm If it's a targeted spell, or someone you have a hard time against, use Q to farm and shroud+E as well
Once you hit 6 Q wait for the CD on Q to come back up then R>Q>W>E>R To get a kill before 6 you gotta out play them hard like Q wait till Q cd up, flash dodge a skillshot towards them (flash over the skillshot into them) auto attack, Q auto attack ignite.
If you can't kill the mid or they outskill you, roam to a lane where you can get kills
In teamfights roam around the fight and jump in when the enemy uses all their CD shroud right after you jump in and have your finger ready to zhonya (or R back out towards a minion or weaker enemy champion {like the support})
If I shouldn't pick akali vs burst CC mages, who should I pick her against? Thanks for the replies and tips. I forgot about the tab feature.
Look for ganks if you playing mid lane and then wait till your teammate attacks the enemy or gets attacked then you come in when enemy at half hp do Q,R auto Q,E and then gg
Q-W-stealthed auto-re-enter stealth-repeat combo harass combo at lvl 2 Q-W-stealthed auto-E-auto-re-enter stealth-repeat combo harass combo at lvl 3 Q minion farm, E minion farm, Press R-Q-E-W 2 win fights, repeat Q-R between to kill (all the while autoing) You usually want 2 stacks on R before going for kills otherwise 1 stack will either leave you stranded or wasted on harass. Not really an in-depth champ... Q/R/E into any low health champ to reset your R-stacks and then celebrate your pentakill by zhonyaing in front of their tower
