How to counter Akshan

Akshan is a mobile marksman-assassin who roams, swings and camouflages with his E, and executes with his ultimate. His weakness is the close-range laning phase and his reliance on mobility, so he struggles against champions that punish him early, nullify his mobility, or block his poke.

  • Annie — Her point-and-click stun and burst win the close-range trades, punishing his laning phase.
  • Yasuo — His Wind Wall blocks his boomerang, nullifying his poke, and he dives onto him.
