Very good video, here are just some notes and additions from a fellow Akali main: 10:50 I use this combo variation when tower diving so that I don't fly further under their tower and I usually pair it with a backwards R2. It's a very solid combo for lower ELOs because people there don't respect your tower dive potential. 12:20 You can flash at the end of R1 and R2 animations to redirect them and still do damage. It's not really a combo that you would or should do on a regular basis but in certain scenarios where it can be useful (for example executing 2 people that are not aligned well for your R2). I see it's explained with using E2, I'm just mentioning other situations. Also, a small trick is that you can Zhonya's during your E2 and the damage will still go off once you reach them. Usable in scenarios where you would die/get CCd before reaching your target with E2.

Hi there thank you for adding notes, the more info, the better! Personally when I dive people I like to go behind my target because then I can ult through to deal dmg and get out of turret range. If you end up in front of them and you want to hit R2, you will go even deeper under their turret and that's why I don't really use the R E combo to end up in front of my opponents. Otherwise I think your tips are great and I'm even a bit sad that I didn't include the zhonyas combo in the guide, so thank you!

@@Kyan100 You don't have to end up deeper under their turret when R2-ing after the front R-E combo though. Just R2 back to where you came from and hit them with the small R2 hitbox that is right behind you right when you cast it.

It actually makes sense I think I was 'spacing' yesterday when I wrote my comment hahaha (was late in the night).

I really like that you do a drill before ranked. I sometimes do that.

Exactly, a little pre-game drill never hurt anyone, except maybe our opponents ;)

10:50 you can use it on reaction to avoid a skillshot/trap in a teamfight as a mixup or slightly delay when you're "in" to give you an extra second for your team to cc/peel for you.

Safe diving if they are 50% and you have electrocute you can kill them under their tower and get hit just once, since you can R2 toward midlane and still get the damage off even if the enemy is behind you as you did on the dummy @@Kyan100 So E2 aa R2 toward safety i believe you can time so you dont even get towwer aggro if the turret is shooting at you do the E2, but you probably know more than me on how the turrets work etc.

So u dont know actuall r e combo where u have to use r at max range so u can e mid way of ur r animation and its 99% guaranted e hit and u dont explain anti escape combo where u r e and u r 2 first and then e 2 so u bait their flash or evelyn ult or whatever escape they with r and get the kill with e 2 u dont explain the combo where somebody like jax or diana jumps on u where u basically e when they dash on u and ult right after and one of the hardest combo on akali where u already use r 1 and u use e cancel its animation with r 2 and e 2 to get the kill its usefull against squishy targets coz u have insane burst

I deliberatly don't mention all combo's as I want to make this video as functional as possible. I want to give people tools that will immediatelty help them climb, perfecting the combo's I show, in the video is all you need to know in order to climb to high elo (purely based on combo's ofc). However ,the more combo's people know, the better. I would love for this comment section to be a place where people can learn everything about akali :), so thank you for making that happen! I appreciate the comment!

For r into E so u come out at Ur original direction is an way easier Hit + its possible that they Flash/dash away and still get Hit because its unexpected. Overall it happens to me a lot of Times then i end up hitting a minion because it was staying right behind me and this would be the second point where is usefull, to adjust if u can E the other way because it might Hit an minion or in teamfights another target. I Figuren this is by accidents with minions and then included it in my combos and Has no cons, maybe even saving u a few more kills because they expect it in the other direction. For Sure im not a grandmaster, im at dia but even there it nobody ll know or expect that unless they play this champ too and have figured it out or Heard it

20:11 this combo works only in practice because u have auto refresh cooldowns, otherwise u have to wait 2.5 seconds after using R1 before using R2

I know but I show it because it's really good practice to get fast with your fingers and mouse. Also still applicable in game but like you said, there's a short cooldown.

9:38 i dont know why but you simple just R and double E to do fast combo 🤷🏼♀️
