How We Analyze Our Counter Nami Data

We analyze millions of League of Legends games each week, pulled directly from Riot Games, to determine the best and worst Nami counters. At this moment, our detailed counter Nami data is based on 107,251 recent games and will show you which champions have the highest and lowest win rates against her.

Nami Counters Summary

In the selected support lane, Nami is best against Hwei and Swain, with win rates of 56.0% and 52.7%, respectively. She make a superior counter pick to either of these champions. Yet, she is weakest in support lane against Teemo and Maokai. Be careful about taking Nami into either of these two champs.

Nami Counters Summary (Continued)

The best picks not in lane to counter Nami include Sivir, Kalista, and Ezreal. These picks are all good at countering Nami with win rates over 56%. Even if these Nami counter picks are not taken in the same position as you, it's not smart to choose her into these matchups. They will most often beat Nami.

Conversely, if the opposing team picks either Tristana or Seraphine, you should seriously think about selecting her, as she easily crushes these selections with win rates over 53% against both ofthem.

How to Counter Nami

Nami shines in the laning phase and mid-game, especially when she has access to her Q and Ultimate R abilities. These abilities give her substantial kill pressure in team fights. To counter this, avoid engaging her directly during these periods of the game and focus on dodging her abilities.

Despite her potential for kill pressure, Nami is a squishy champion with low hit points and an overall lack of mobility. This makes her vulnerable especially to crowd control (CC) attacks. If you have a character with CC abilities, look for opportunities to catch Nami off guard and eliminate her quickly.

Nami is heavily team-reliant. While she excels at healing her allies and boosting their damage, she lacks the carry potential of other Supports. If you can isolate her from her team, she becomes considerably less of a threat.

During the laning phase, Nami will try to retain a health advantage by poking the enemy and healing up with her W ability. Avoid continuous trades with her or her ADC, and focus on whittling her down safely from a distance.

At level 6, Nami reaches a significant power spike with the unlocking of her Ultimate R, adding another layer of CC to her arsenal. Be extra cautious when she hits this level, as her crowd control potential increases dramatically.

Nami's W ability, maxed out at level 9, provides substantial healing for her and her allies. Try to prevent these heals by applying pressure on Nami and forcing her to mismanage her mana.

In the late game, she becomes a formidable opponent due to her overall utility and CC abilities. While she can be particularly effective in clustered fights, she remains vulnerable when isolated. Use this to your advantage by striking when she is alone and avoiding grouped confrontations when her Ultimate R is available.
