Neeko vs Ahri

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Neeko has high lane pressure and should use E through minions to threaten Ahri's positioning and force mistakes.
Manage Ahri E threat by using disguise and clone to create uncertainty and avoid predictable engages.

Trading pattern

Fish for E roots through minions, then follow up with Q burst while Ahri's Ahri E is on cooldown.
Use W and passive disguise to bait Ahri E and punish her if she misses it.
Avoid trading when Ahri has Ahri R ready to disengage or extend fights safely.

Danger windows

Ahri is most dangerous when Ahri E is available and Ahri R can follow up for picks.
Avoid extended trades when Ahri's cooldowns are up or she can safely disengage with Ahri R.
Punish Ahri only when Ahri E is down or she uses Ahri Q on the wave, limiting her damage output.

Early game

Use minion waves to angle E roots and punish Ahri when she uses Ahri Q on the wave.
Avoid extended trades if Ahri holds Ahri E or Ahri R is available to escape.
Pressure Ahri early to deny her safe wave control and reduce her roam opportunities.

Power spikes

Neeko's level 6 R creates strong all-in threat and teamfight control.
Neeko's first completed AP burst item enhances her kill pressure.
Respect Ahri's level 6 Ahri R and first completed mage item for her increased mobility and burst.

Win conditions

Use disguise and minion-angled E roots to create picks or force Ahri away from farming safely.
Capitalize on Ahri missing Ahri E or Ahri R cooldown to engage with R and burst her down.
Maintain lane pressure to deny Ahri safe wave states and reduce her roam impact.

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