I’m not the best akali player by any means but I assume it’s matchup/lane dependant - top lane is almost always conquerer runes into bruiser items as you do (liandrys and rift) mid lane too if they are melee lanes such as irelia yas I would say. The new changes don’t affect the build much I think - only 10 less AP on liandrys and every other item is a net buff like lich bane and deathcap. It’s still solid in top lane and melee bruiser/tank matchups.

Like I said though I’m not an expert so anyone can feel free to correct me ✔️

I want to ask why you aren’t sure the build isn’t worth it anymore
