MichaelTypewritten Text33/50; Fantastic Guide. I'd like some more content added to the laning phase, team fighting, and roaming. For the most part, this guide covers most of the stuff that ahri players are looking for to improve their play. I'd encourage you to take outsections about non-viable summoner spells and items, as I don't feel that that adds a whole lot to the guide, and ends up distracting the reader more than helping them. Once you implement some of the changes to the comments i suggested below, i'll be sure to scout this guide :) I really want to see this guide overtake xdanielwang's ahri guide. This deserves to be top ahri guide. OH btw upvoted.

Landing 2-3 max range Qs on your opponent can single handedly win you the lane in some matchups. I'd like you to add a little bit of a quiz, that has you and an ranged opponent standing near a minion wave, autoattacking creeps, and asking the question, "is my opponent in range for a max range Q?" -3
