Additional Nami Build Insights

League of Legends Nami players will find her to be a complex character to build out properly. You'll notice that her build changes when she is fighting either diversified or highly focused team comps, indicating you should not select the same Nami build every single game of League of Legends

The best items to include in your champ's build are: Shurelya's Battlesong, Ardent Censer, and Imperial Mandate. Those who included these items in their setups had a much higher winrate than players who utilized other builds for Nami. Moreover, if you are fighting a varied enemy team comp, you should really consider grabbing yourself the Sorcery, and Inspiration runes. In recent matches, she won the greatest number of her games when using these runes.

We came up with our Nami build suggestions by analyzing 94,486 recently ranked LoL matches with her in them. We only advise the highest winrate Nami builds that have been built by ranked League players enough times for us to suggest them. With so many games in our dataset, we are quite confident in our suggested builds.
