How to Play with Orianna as Nami in LoL

The Nami Orianna synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Orianna, 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 Orianna. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Orianna helps Nami perform poorer in competitive LoL rounds. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Nami tries to synergize with Orianna, she gets a little drop in her full damage output. This change may signal that Orianna doesn't help protection for her to dish out more damage or that her participation also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Nami is played alongside Orianna on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Orianna.

Moreover, when Nami plays with Orianna on the same team, she on average takes a little more damage than when she fights alone. Receiving more damage could indicate that Orianna does a poor job of protecting Nami in teamfights.

Is Nami better when played alongside Orianna?

There is no ideal synergy for Nami that will always be her top teammate. Yet, overall, Orianna is a terrible teammate for Nami. By playing on the same side as Nami, she decreases their win rate by -3.4% to 45.7%. This demonstrates that there is a terrible strategic relationship between Nami and Orianna that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Orianna has a greater difficulty than Nami. That means Nami players should be cautious when enlisting Orianna comrades to play with, as they will need a greater level of skill to work well with you.

Fighting together, Nami players should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magic damage. Together, these champs can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.

In contrast, by aligning Nami and Orianna together, you probably will not be granting your other allies a great deal of protection for burst damage. Plan to pick other champs on your team that offsets this disparity in their abilities.

Regardless of your Orianna ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well, regardless.
