Ahri vs Neeko

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Ahri's high early agency and lane pressure to deny Neeko free farm and control wave tempo.
Manage Neeko's disguise and clone by holding (E) for clear commit windows and avoid extended trades without (R).

Trading pattern

Poke with (Q) and (W), then punish Neeko's forward movement or missed (E) with (E).
Never use (E) without a clear punish window to avoid being countered.
Use (R) to extend trades only when Neeko's key defensive cooldowns or mobility are down.

Danger windows

Respect (E) root through minions and (R) knock-up burst availability.
Avoid fighting when either (R) or (E) is on cooldown.
Hard push and punish Neeko's roams after level 6 to deny map pressure.

Early game

Push or hold the wave to limit (E) angles through minions.
Use (Q) and (W) for short trades and only commit (E) when Neeko wastes mobility or commits forward.
Avoid extended trades before level 6 when (R) is unavailable to escape or extend safely.

Power spikes

Track Ahri's level 6 (R) and first completed mage item to pressure waves and extend picks.
Respect Neeko's level 6 (R) and first AP burst item as her all-in threat spikes.
Use level 3 to increase short trade flexibility but save (E) for real punish windows.

Win conditions

Land (E) on Neeko's forward commits or after she wastes mobility to pick her off.
Control wave to deny Neeko safe (E) angles and create roam or river pressure after level 6.
Use (R) to safely extend picks or disengage from Neeko's all-in attempts.

Tip: For Ahri vs Neeko, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
