Is Nasus better when played alongside Nami?
There is no universally accepted best synergy for Nasus that will 100% of the time be his #1 ally. However, Nami is a not very good companion for Nasus. By locking into the same team as Nasus, she drops their win rate by -1.4% to 48.9%. This proves that there is a negative synergy between Nasus and Nami that results in them performing worse together than alone.
Nami has a lower difficulty than Nasus. That means you don't need to be careful when arranging Nami comrades to fight alongside, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to cooperate well with you.
Playing on the same side, you should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magical damage. Together, these two are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.
Although, by pairing Nasus and Nami together, you will not be giving your team very much engage potential. We recommend you include other champs on your team that offsets this relative hole in their kit.
Regardless of your Nami ally's ability, you need to focus on increasing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
