| Matchup | Threat | Games | WR | Gold @ 15 | Gold Diff | Tips | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 Ahri | Easy | 790 | 50% | +422 | +1,321 | The most important rule is to never stand inside your minion wave. This forces Ahri to choose between hitting you or the wave with her spells. If she ever misses her Charm, she becomes extremely vulnerable, and you must capitalize on this window to punish her. All-in her any time her Q and W are on cooldown. You can also use your W to threaten roams, baiting her abilities onto the wave. | |
Skill Priority Q Avengerang Akshan throws a boomerang that deals damage going out and coming back, extending its range each time it hits an enemy.  E Heroic Swing Akshan fires a grappling hook into terrain then swings around it, repeatedly firing at the nearest enemy while swinging. He can jump off early or gets knocked off when colliding with champions or terrain.  W Going Rogue Akshan passively marks enemy champions as Scoundrels when they kill his ally champions. If Akshan kills a Scoundrel, he resurrects the allies they killed, gains bonus gold, and clears all marks. When activated, Akshan enters camouflage and gains Move Speed and Mana Regen while moving towards Scoundrels. Akshan loses the camouflage quickly while he is not in brush or near terrain. 49.2% WR 653 Matches Summoner Spells  50.0% WR 426 Matches Skill OrderAvengerang Akshan throws a boomerang that deals damage going out and coming back, extending its range each time it hits an enemy. 2 3 5 7 9 Going Rogue Akshan passively marks enemy champions as Scoundrels when they kill his ally champions.

 Akali | Easy | 297 | 52% | +349 | +1,070 | Try to space out her Qs. She should be playing to survive in this lane. You hard win early and pre-six unless you make a massive blunder in the lane. You want to avoid getting hit by her passive autos and her E as much as possible. Avoid trading in her shroud and be very careful of her all-in damage with her R. | |
