How to play it

✓ DO

Body-block her E

Stand inside your own wave after you crash so Akali's E can't pull her onto you.

Crash before her 3

Abuse ranged-vs-melee early — win levels 1-2 and crash the wave before she hits 3, leaving her too low to go under tower.

Wait out her smoke

Never trade inside her W shroud — back off until it fades; Ignite helps burn her out of it.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never let the wave bounce back after you crash — keep it moving so Akali stays pinned low.
