Mastering Ahri's Best Combos: Essential Champion Guide
Q followed by instant W and auto-attack forms Ahri's basic trading pattern.
At level 3, execute an all-in by chaining E into Q, then simultaneously casting W with an auto-attack.
For quick trades, auto-attack first to ensure W locks on, then immediately cast W and Q in rapid succession.
To maximize burst damage at level 6:
- R to position for E and Q
- Chain R and W to reposition
- Land second portion of Q
- Finish with auto-attack > R > auto-attack
When pursuing enemies:
- Use R to get within Q range
- Auto-attack and W to lock on
- R > auto-attack to close distance
- Final R for optimal E positioning
Surprise engage combinations:
- E > Flash > Q > R > W (mid-air) > auto-attack
- E > Flash (mid animation) > R > W (mid-air) > Q > auto-attack > R
- E > Q > R > W (mid-air) > auto-attack (when clear line of sight)
- E > R > W (mid-air) > Q on landing (conceals Charm animation)
Quick burst combo:
- Q > instant R
- W while airborne
- E upon landing
