How to Play with Darius as Nami in LoL

The Nami Darius synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Darius, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Nami sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Darius. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Darius helps Nami perform poorer in competitive LoL games. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Nami plays on the same team as Darius, she observes a little increase in her full damage output. This may signal that Darius supports by providing cover for her to deal more damage or that his presence on the team also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Nami is played with Darius on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Darius.

Additionally, when Nami plays with Darius on the same side, she often takes a little less damage than when she fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage may mean that Darius does a decent job of covering Nami during team fights.

Is Nami better when played alongside Darius?

There is no perfect ally for Nami that will 100% of the time be her top synergy. However, Darius is a not very good companion for Nami. By playing on the same team as Nami, he decreases their win rate by -1.3% to 47.8%. This clearly indicates that there is a harmful bond between Nami and Darius that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Darius has a much lower diffuclty than Nami. That means Nami players don't need to be very careful when enlisting Darius teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a much lower level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Fighting alongside, Nami players should see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these champions can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

Conversely, by pairing Nami and Darius together, you may not be providing your team a great deal of AP. Make sure to bring other champs on your team that offsets this relative gap in their capabilities.

Regardless of the ability of your Darius ally, you should focus on increasing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
