Read from Singed's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Akali.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Singed | Akali at level 1 has no shroud and short Q range — run straight through her wave with Poison Trail and deny CS without giving her a duel target. |
| Level 2 | Singed | Her shroud is not yet unlocked and Fling sends her behind you into your own poison; she has no safe answer to being flung at level 2. |
| Level 3 | Singed | All three abilities online: Mega Adhesive grounds Shuriken Flip's re-cast, so glue her exit and Fling her back into the goo — landing in it is what roots her. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Twilight Shroud on a short cooldown and her R two-part dash give her genuine outplay tools; the lane is skill-dependent while Insanity Potion is still on cooldown. |
| Level 6 | Akali | Perfect Execution's second cast executes on missing health and Insanity Potion gives you stats, not a heal — hold above the threshold and give ground. |
| First item | Singed | Rylai's Scepter makes every Poison Trail tick a slow she cannot walk out of; the proxy-fling pattern is now almost unbreakable and you force the lane. |
| Two+ items | Singed | At two items her burst exceeds your raw tankiness in a clean 1v1 — side-lane pressure and proxy to deny her items rather than running her down directly. |
Level 1 and 2 are the freest laning you will have in this matchup — Akali's Q range is short, her shroud costs energy she does not have stacked yet, and she cannot punish proxy safely. Drop Poison Trail through her minion wave and deny her CS without committing to a duel. The one trap to avoid is walking into the very tight window where her Q applies the outer ring mark and she closes for the empowered auto: keep your kite-path between you and the wave so she would have to chase through poison to reach you. At level 3 her shroud comes online, which is your cue to switch from aggressive run-through to a proxy-focused pattern — give up a few CS in direct confrontation and instead sap the wave behind her tower.
