Dirty Fighting
Every three hits from Akshan's Attacks and Abilities deals bonus damage and grants him a Shield if the target was a champion. When Akshan Attacks, he fires an additional Attack for reduced damage. If he cancels the additional Attack, he instead gains Move Speed.
Avengerang
Akshan throws a boomerang that deals damage going out and coming back, extending its range each time it hits an enemy.
