Which elevator in the 2000s still had music? It was more like a 1960s or 70s thing. But it's funny how people think that memories that they dont have were reality.. and elevator music has a clearly definable 'early' 2000s era.
Insanely valuable guide! One thing from a master tier akali player, I would like to mention, is that the energy cost of q at level 1 has gone down from 130 to 110 a while ago, which makes her level 1 actually strong in some matchups. You might be able to cheese an electrocute trade in or 2 qs at level 1. Some Matchups that can be abused level 1 imo are Azir(since he only has his soldiers that you can outspace), Sylas(dodgin e and hitting good spaced Qs decides the matchup from lvl 1 already), Yone(easy to proc electrocute), Even syndra or orianna if you cheese them into a too upfront position in lane
I'm on the side of "Akali is easy" as in she is easy to pick up but i am not denying that she has a high skill ceiling and a lot of room for skill expression. I am a casual player that also started in season 10. I was a support main for the most part until the second half of season 12, where then i became a flex player and played every role. Thats where i picked up akali for the first time. With the extensive game knowledge i already built prior i found akali "easy" to play personally because of "Akali W is a panic button", This tip was a mind opener for me. Anything goes wrong? press W. getting ganked? Press W. Getting tower dived? Press W. Anytime you need time to think for a plan to either engage or escape just press W, it gives you alot of breathing room to learn akali without going 0/10. But of course this is just a tip from a casual player, im sure this is not how you are suppose to use her W like this for the most part. Ciao👋
I see where you are coming from, i must say i'm on the other side though, tried playing Akali a few times but seems like everytime i play a non standard mage in the midlane i go 0 in 10 , perhaps its just me sucking as a melee though :D. What other games do you play since you are a casual league player?
That's understandable. Akali is somewhat more forgiving than other hard champs because of her w but there is so much more you can do with it outside of just using it defensively.
I think u just didnt learn how to reliably hit her combos. On top of that akali is one of the most unforgiving champs when it comes to knowing ur limits. @@Sspirulinaa
Great vid! Nerd Feedback: DPS is not explained correctly. Burst damage or assassin as you said & damage over time are types of DPS. Damage over time is called D.O.T. Cheers mate! You earned a sub.
on top of really nice and informative videos, you're really nice to listen too; that extra inflection at the end of some sentences makes me want to trust you even more
The algorithm works in misterious ways. I have had trouble for years finding an actual main champion that I enjoy playing and, for some reason, yesterday it randomly popped into my head that maybe I should try Akali. Today I got this recommended. Maybe I should actually try it for once.
wait thats crazy cause I was playing ranked on my yasuo and i got hardstomp by an akali. I still remember that day. (it was a month ago i think or two idk)
Thank you so much for your time, tips, and tricks on how to play Akali! Not only did you master one of the hardest mid-lane assassins, but you also mastered the art of frontlining, which in my opinion is a must-learn for any summoner aiming for Challenger. Well said!
arent more sources of hp reg counterproductive? like DS+SW+high base HP reg?? because u get more hp back the lower u are and if u reg faster then u are not low anymore
@@Sspirulinaa all the time I have lead or have won lane I just can't help up my team or if I do so my laners gets fed from the my laners so I can't solo him anymore and I have very huge difficulty with wave management and Laning phase
I think Akali is both extremely easy and very hard. I am a jungler, and I only played her cuz i got a skin i wanted to use, and first timing her i was shitstomping every lane, but trolled hard in teamfights. If you just want to pick a champ to ruin someones day in lane, pick akali, you have to be clinically dead to lose lane on this character. The difficulty in lategame comes from her overloaded kit, because you are presented with so many choices, unless you have tremendous experience on the champ, you will very likely do something stupid.
Thank you! i really try my best for a mix between entertainment and info, i also must admit i had 5 different styles of titles/thumbnails before this one but now i am really happy with the results
I like the video aesthetic of an early 2000s kind of elevator music intro, genuinely its actually quite unique
Thank you Lotus, any champion/creator you would like to see next?
more akali..

You make the best guides, It's short but every minute covers something new, and more in-depth than all the other akali guides I've seen on TH-cam.
Thank you soooo much for the kind words! love it
This is the first guide i really enjoyed watching ! Loved the "interview" type
That's really nice to hear, which champions would you like to see covered?
@@Sspirulinaa You should do katarina or ekko
any player in mind?
@@Sspirulinaa i know it sound strange but why not Sivir ?

I'll take that as a compliment, thank you very much! What is your favorite role/champion in the game ?

Next up; you become challenger :D
Deserve more subs g, keep up the good videos
Thats so welcomining to hear :D You like any other games or mainly League ?
Very helpful advice! And sick thumbnail
Thank you so much for the kind words, took me a while to get to these kind of thumbnails but i'm also very happy with the results
Been playing since s10 and challenger ??!!!! Same here but plat. IQ diff + failure. League of legends is genetics
LoL is just luck
@@DownForceSimRacing yeah people just pay boosters who are lucky to get on their accounts and consistently luck them to diamond 1 with their luck
Great video!!
Thank you!
wait thats crazy cause I was playing ranked on my yasuo and i got hardstomp by an akali. I still remember that day. (it was a month ago i think or two idk)
super nice and concise video :)
Thank you Chill !! you like playing Akali ?
I always feel the enemy akali has aura even if they were 1/10 which unlike my teammates xd
I think that akali is just such a menace to deal with that anyone is scared for her :P she feels like Katarina
this is so cool 🥰

am i the only one who noticed the cannon mnions?
Nice concept bro, Olaf or Jax Guide next ?
Il do my best, any player in mind?
@@Sspirulinaa @Sspirulinaa ok ok and not really, I just watch Wao sometimes it's those mains, and he masters them perfectly
how many were focused more on the insane clips rather than the interview ? especially when he started talking about mid game
Hahaha zoning out
Music at 6:50?
arent more sources of hp reg counterproductive? like DS+SW+high base HP reg?? because u get more hp back the lower u are and if u reg faster then u are not low anymore
Against high poke this is the only way to not get bullied out of lane sadly
5:06 👀
boom i shroud ! GETS STUNNED DIES
hey mate im akali main in eune and im kinda stuck rn may i ask for help
Shoot!
@@Sspirulinaa all the time I have lead or have won lane I just can't help up my team or if I do so my laners gets fed from the my laners so I can't solo him anymore and I have very huge difficulty with wave management and Laning phase
btw galio is one of her best matchups
Lmao
Baumbach Fords

Outdated info
Did they rework it in the last 3 months?

You should check out Lethality Akali.
It's amazing.
AND it doesn't fall off late game.
all her abilities do magic damage though
Its worth a try at least :D
How u got so many views
Thank you! i really try my best for a mix between entertainment and info, i also must admit i had 5 different styles of titles/thumbnails before this one but now i am really happy with the results
@@Sspirulinaa im trying to do lol videos but i dont any
