When an enemy kills your teammate, they become marked as a Scoundrel. Help Akshan target that marked enemy — if he secures the kill within 3 seconds of damaging them, he resurrects all allies they killed and earns bonus gold.
Basic Team Fight Skirmish
Lead with your crowd control when fighting alongside Akshan — he has no hard CC but excels at following up on disabled targets with his passive double-shot attacks and E mobility.
Basic Team Fight Skirmish
Chip enemy health before Akshan uses his R — its damage scales dramatically with the target's missing health, making an already-poked target far more vulnerable.
Team Fight Skirmish

Team Fight Skirmish
When Akshan fires his E hook into terrain, be ready to follow up — he will swing around it and land on enemies, making it an ideal moment to chain your own CC or damage immediately after.
Lane Phase Skirmish
After Akshan revives allies by defeating a Scoundrel, keep the fight going — revived teammates spawn at base and can quickly rejoin, potentially giving your team a numbers advantage.
