How to Play with Soraka as Nami in LoL

The Nami Soraka synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Soraka, 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 Soraka. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Soraka helps Nami perform worse in competitive League of Legends games. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is only marginal.

When Nami plays on the same team as Soraka, she observes a barely noticable drop in her total damage dealt. This may demonstrate that Soraka doesn't help protection for her to deal more damage or that her participation also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Nami is played with Soraka on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Soraka.

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

Is Nami better when played alongside Soraka?

There is no one best companion for Nami that will always be her top teammate. However, Soraka is a terrible teammate for Nami. By being on the same side as Nami, she drops their win rate by -5.9% to 43.2%. This shows that there is a very bad bond between Nami and Soraka that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Soraka has a lower difficulty than Nami. That means you don't need to be careful when finding Soraka allies to fight alongside, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to work well with you.

Playing alongside, you will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to buff allies and debuff enemies. When paired, these champions may be able to carry with the power of their abilities.

In contrast, by grouping Nami and Soraka together, you may not be granting your other allies very much sustained damage output. Make sure to have other champions on your team that fills this relative disparity in their kit.

Regardless of the skill of your Soraka ally, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
