Akali is a DPS champions, same as Katarina. All they need is 1 target to go down and they instantly jump on another low health one, making multiple kills in quick succession. LB can't do that, she has no reset, and her CDs are much longer.

Kata and Akali even post 6 can still get harass heavily vs very long range mages (Lux, Xerath), making spell vamp quite useful in those match up. Hextech gunblade is a great item on Akali, adding more burst, more sustain, more chasing power (to an already great-at-chasing kit). You know nothing about her saying she doesn't use any spell vamp item after laning phase.
