Champs with cast animations that do not guarantee Kat will not hurt them tend to lose the lane to her. Ruse only snares her, which is useless due to Shunpo having a better range and further casting only holds Ryze in Kat ult. Casting Q on Ahri has a similar effect, and charm has a casting animation as well, so it is imperative that you land it. Fox Fire does pitiful dmg in comparasin to Kats abilities, and the only time Kat tends to come near is with dmg reduction, making Ahri burst lackluster. Play a passive lane, buy MR HP and SV, and your Ahri should do just fine.
