How to counter Akali?

Akali wild rift counter tips

Akali wild rift counter tips:

Coordinated ganks and aggressive play before she reaches level 6 are effective ways to stop her.

Akali will try to dive the backline and eliminate the squishiest champions first in team fights. Try to use CC to shut her down or peel her away from you and your allies as soon as she engages.

When you’re chased by Akali, wait until she has no Perfect Execution left to use flash/escapes.

Remain away from the Twilight Shroud until it vanishes if Akali engages and hides behind it.

Towards the end of the game, avoid exploring the map by yourself and try to stick together as a team. With so much burst, Akali can easily take out flimsy targets that move on their own.

Try not to gift early-game kills to Akali. She is a champion who is strong with snowballs, and after she gains some experience, she will have no trouble dominating the map.

Finding Akali’s location, locking her with CC, and dealing damage are the first steps in joining a team battle.

Akali’s “Shuriken Flip” should always be avoided by standing behind soldiers.

When Akali uses the “Five Point Strike” talent at maximum distance, you will be slowed. So, keep moving to avoid it.

  • Squishy.

  • Weak early game.
