WHAT TO WATCH

Recast frequency describes commitment—not quality.

E2 and R2 completion become useful coaching signals only when reviewed alongside target state and the exit Akali preserves.

Early dataWe wait for enough players before calling something a benchmark.

E1-to-E2 decision time

What it measures
Numerator: total elapsed seconds across verified E1→E2 pairs. Denominator: paired recasts. The mean describes how long Akali waits before committing, not reaction speed or quality.
Why it matters
This is a decision and style metric, not a simple higher-is-better score. Use its position in the field to find unusual tendencies, then inspect the situations producing them.

MASTER1.45sn=3 · 6 eligible games · early sample

CHALLENGER1.36sn=5 · 5 eligible games · early sample
Observed medians run from 1.32s in grandmaster to 1.45s in master.

12 players across 26 eligible replays in 3 ranks.

Curves show observed player distributions. Anything the AI could not see in the replay is unavailable, never scored as zero.

How Akali mechanics are measured

Nine sequence metrics calculate. Passive conversion, shroud avoidance, and R2 execute margin remain unavailable.

MECHANICS LIBRARY

The Rogue Assassin, made measurable.

01Contextual

E recast decision

A recast is a commitment decision whose value depends on target and exit state.

Measured as
E2 recasts divided by eligible E1 casts, plus median recast delay.
Training drill
Before E2, name the exit available afterward.
02Observed

R2 hold time

Measures how long the second ultimate is held without claiming the timing was optimal.

Measured as
Median seconds from R1 to eligible R2.
Training drill
Review early and expired R2 windows separately.
03Observed proxy

Q→attack rhythm

Captures post-Q attack follow-through but cannot yet prove passive-ring use.

Measured as
Q casts followed by eligible attacks divided by Q opportunities.
Training drill
Step through the ring before the empowered attack.
04Coverage gated

Shroud value

True avoidance requires visibility, damage, and threat state.

Measured as
Unavailable until those streams validate together.
Training drill
Label immediate versus patient shroud re-entry.
