Itemization
Matchups
- Weak Against: Akshan, Gragas, Tristana.
- Strong Against: Taliyah, Hwei, Zoe.
Win Conditions
- Go for either long trades or short trades depending on your ability to reset the cooldown on your E. Continue until you are able to kill your opponent with the next combo.
- Katarina's prime time is when at least one opponent is within kill range - flank your opponents and catch them off-guard.
- Keep enemy ability and item cooldowns in mind in case you go all in and suddenly find yourself unable to get the reset to back out again.
All in all
- AD Katarina can catch opponents off guard with her unexpected burst damage and sustained damage output from auto attacks and abilities. This can be particularly effective against teams with low armor or squishy targets who are vulnerable to her rapid combos. Additionally, AD Katarina's playstyle can provide more versatility in team compositions, offering a different approach to playing the champion compared to the traditional AP build.

Game Strategy
- Early Game: Your champion is very vulnerable in the early game, both to ranged and melee matchups, so look to play smart and only trade when you know you have the upperhand. Level 3 is a good early game power spike, but we need to wait for either level 6 or getting our items finished.
- Mid Game: Swap with your Bot when the first turret Bot is taken. You are going to play Bot now, so apply pressure and look to rotate when you get a chance. Kat is literally made for diving with the amount of dashes and damage she has, so don't hesistate diving.
- Late Game: Keep doing the same thing, you want to clean up the fight and initiate the moment you see someone being low on HP. Nothing changes for late game either, your main purpose is to be sneaky and catch people off guard.
