Akshan Counters

This page lists the Akshan matchups that matter most in MID, based on ranked win-rate data rather than personal takes. Swain, Vex, and Vladimir are the toughest lanes for Akshan, where his win rate falls furthest beneath his overall average. Swain is the hardest of them: Akshan has won only 41.9% of 155 recorded games against him. On the other side, Azir, Aurelion Sol, and Yone are matchups where Akshan comes out ahead, so they are worth targeting during champion select.

Every card displays Akshan’s win rate in that matchup along with the sample size behind it. Matchups with tens of thousands of games carry much more weight than ones with only a few hundred. Easy, Even, and Hard labels are assigned from the win rate alone (under 48% is Hard, over 52% is Easy), so treat them as a quick guide rather than a separate statistic. The data covers ranked games at Emerald and above in every region, reflects patch 16.13.1, and updates every 48 hours, so the figures shift as the meta does.
