Guide to Synergizing Nami and Nautilus

Tips for Playing as Nami with Nautilus

Nami's ultimate can come in very handy for initiating on enemies who are far away.

Using Ebb and Flow during an engagement with enemy champions will help sway the battle in your favor.

Advice to Understand How Nautilus Will Play

How to Play with Nautilus as Nami in LoL

The Nami Nautilus synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Nautilus, 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 large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Nautilus. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Nautilus helps Nami perform not as well in competitive League rounds. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Nami tries to synergize with Nautilus, she gets a small increase in her total damage output. This may indicate that Nautilus supports by providing cover for her to dish out more damage or that his support also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Nami is played alongside Nautilus 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 synergisticly with Nautilus.

Additionally, when Nami plays with Nautilus on the same side, she often receives more damage than when she plays alone. Taking more damage could indicate that Nautilus does a poor job of covering Nami in teamfights.

Is Nami better when played alongside Nautilus?

There is no perfect champion pairing for Nami that will 100% of the time be her ideal teammate. Yet, Nautilus is a terrible teammate for Nami. By locking into the same team as Nami, he drops their win rate by -7.9% to 41.2%. This shows that there is an easy to overcome and exploit strategic relationship between Nami and Nautilus that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Nautilus has a greater difficulty than Nami. That means you must be careful when finding Nautilus comrades to fight alongside, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Working alongside, Nami players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to provide a lot of utility for your team. When paired, these two should be able to manipulate the pace of team fights.

In contrast, by pairing Nami and Nautilus together, you probably will not be granting your team very much sustained damage output. Make sure to have other champs on your team that offsets this relative disparity in their abilities.

Regardless of your Nautilus ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
