AP Carries are separated and distinguished by two factors: laning and ganking. In the current meta, it is crucial to either be proficient in one or the other. However, some champions exceed the requirement of mastery. One such champion is Ahri, the 9-Tails Fox.

| Chinese Artwork for Midnight Ahri |
Due to her unique skill set, Ahri excels at farming and being mobile. This is mainly attributed to her ultimate, Spirit Rush, which allows her to have three extra pseudo-Flashes. LaCorpse (2013) points out that Spirit Rush can be utilized to both chase down prey and escape predators (p.1).

| Ahri's Weaknesses |
Ahri is not without her imperfections, however. Like the vast majority of League of Legend’s AP Carries, the former is inherently “squishy,” or weak to damage. Additionally, Ahri’s playstyle is often restricted due to her detrimental mana pool according to LaCorpse (2013) (p.1).
