Pre 6 Akali is not particularly hard to manage but post 6 it feels like I can't even get near her or the minions unless I bait for my jungler. Am I doomed to just push and try to roam or is there some trick I can use to handle her? I would assume there is not but maybe some experienced tf player can help me? Technically I can safely farm but I wanna know if there is anyway for me to actually turn the match up into my favor | ||

I seriously think Riot's match making algorithm has some bugs. | ||

Would that not help? is the effect that big though? When a champion wins 55% of the time, that champion is OP. You can get the same effect just by being on the blue side. In any case, to verify what you said, I need to collect more data and plot the blue side win % per champion. It is possible that champions with more skillshots are more heavily affected by the blue side. | ||

I don't expect win % per champion to be any different. | ||

It probably has to do with a number of things. Vision angle could be one of them, but it's definitely not the only one. EDIT: One thing of note is that viewing angle as a source of imbalance does not only exist on Summoner's Rift. If you wanted to look at the effect of viewing angle in isolation, we coincidentally have a game mode that is played on an otherwise symmetrical map, but is subject to viewing angle-based imbalance (ARAM). | ||

So unless this changed or is disabled in OFA, the effect is actually even more dramatic because Riot is already trying to correct for it. It probably has to do with a number of things. Vision angle could be one of them, but it's definitely not the only one. I know if you start a game and don't interfere most times blue takes an inhibitor first just from the natural wave movements. | ||

Every single MMR checker estimates a roughly 30 mmr gap between teams. This is less than a 2 win gap and in no way is enough to make up for 5-6%. | ||
