Aki

About Aki

Aki is banned in-draft more often than almost any other meta hero, even though he is picked less often than the typical one. Opponents remove him after he is picked 54% of the time. That is 10th of 133 on in-draft bans, while prebans on him sit at the pool median, so the attention arrives during the draft rather than before it.

Heavy damage dealt, almost none absorbed

Against the other meta heroes Aki is 26th on Damage Dealt, well above the pool median. On Damage Suffered he is 128th, close to the bottom of the field, so he takes far less damage than the typical meta hero. His Total Score is 116th, and both his win rate and his pick rate sit below the median.

Two answers stand out

Disciplinary Prefect Aria is the hardest matchup on his card, well ahead of Harsetti and Setsuka. Tactical Archetype Coli follows them, and after that the hard side thins out. His best matchups start with Frieren and Hecate, and Frieren leads by a visible margin, with Tidal Rift Elvira the next name after them.

His strongest partners are Hecate, New Moon Luna and Uncharted Pioneer Politis. All ten of his top partners return a positive result, so the partner list is broad rather than a single pairing. Hecate, Kawerik and Lisette appear on both his partner list and his best-matchup list.

One artifact, one set list in front

Ritual of Sealing Flames is the artifact on every recorded combination. Speed on its own is the most common set list, held by nearly half of his builds, and no other set list comes close to that share. Immunity with Speed and Speed with Torrent follow as secondary choices.
