(Picture: Riot Games)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nWith his passive, Dirty Fighting<\/strong>, at every three hits from his attacks and abilities against champions, Akshan will deal bonus damage and gain a shield. When Akshan attacks, he will fire an additional attack that deals reduced damage. If you cancel his bonus attack, he gains movement speed instead.<\/p>\nLet’s move on to his active skills:<\/p>\n
\n- Avengerang<\/strong>: Akshan launches a boomerang, dealing damage going out and coming back. Additionally, its range increases with each enemy hit.<\/li>\n
- Going Rogue<\/strong>: Akshan passively marks enemy champions as scoundrels when they kill his allies. If you kill a scoundrel, Akshan will revive allies it has killed, gain bonus gold, and remove all marks. Upon activation, Akshan enters camouflage and gains movement speed and mana regen as he moves towards the scoundrels. Akshan quickly loses camouflage while he isn’t in a brush or near a terrain obstacle.<\/li>\n
- Heroic Swing<\/strong>: Akshan throws a hook into an obstacle on the ground and repeatedly attacks the nearest enemy as he swings. You can let go of his rope whenever you want or when colliding with champions or terrain obstacles.<\/li>\n
- Ultimate – Comeuppance<\/strong>: Akshan targets an enemy champion and begins accumulating bullets. When you cast his ability again, he fires all stored bullets, dealing damage based on missing health to the first champion, minion, or structure hit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Runes and spells recommended for Akshan<\/strong><\/h2>\n
(Picture: Riot Games)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n- Conqueror<\/strong>: Triggers on successful skill combos and trades, dealing bonus damage to affected enemies and increasing her burst damage.<\/li>\n
- Hunter – Vampirism<\/strong>: Grants an adaptive bonus 2% Physical or Magic vamp, and unique champion takedowns adds 2 AD with 1% Physical vamp, or 4 AP with 1% Magic vamp.<\/li>\n
- Adaptive Carapace<\/strong>: Provides with bonus HP and increases defence when HP drops to below 50%, based on the damage type you took more of over the last 60 seconds.<\/li>\n
- Hunter – Genius<\/strong>: Grants additional ability haste for each unique takedown.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
While Akshan’s abilities are more inclined to be a marksman champion, his main role will be as an assassin on the mid lane instead of the bot lane, with both his summoner spells being focused on giving him tools to move around, rotate, and delete enemy champions.<\/p>\n
\n- Flash<\/strong>: Allows you to have more offensive options when entering combat, as well as helps you escape from dangerous situations.<\/li>\n
- Ignite<\/strong>: Use it as a tool to finish off enemies in case they want to escape with low health and to prevent strong healing effects from your enemies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
