This is a frustrating kiting lane. Ahri has the range and mobility to stay outside your Q sweetspots, and her charm can cancel your E mid-dash. You win by baiting her cooldowns and forcing an all-in when she has no way to dash away.

This is a skill-intensive matchup that leans in Akali's favor as the game progresses. You dominate the first few levels with your range, but once she has her full kit, she can easily dance around your Q sweetspots using her high mobility.

A skill-heavy spacing battle where you have the reach but she has the agility. You win by landing Q sweetspots when her mobility is down, while she wins by using W to disrupt your combos. It is a game of chicken regarding who uses their dash first.
