Skill Order (Lv 1 - 15)
Prioritize the skill that damages enemies and heals allies at the same time, then level the skill that empowers your basic attacks.
Nami Strengths
- ✓Skill 2 poke that heals allies and damages enemies at once
- ✓Engage and disengage with the Ult wave
Nami Weaknesses
- ×Skill 1 bubble is slow and hard to land on its own
- ×Low durability; easily killed if an assassin gets close
Nami Early Game
Early on, Skill 2 lets you trade while healing. Buff your ADC with Skill 3, then step forward. Trade with the heal behind you and keep pressure on the lane.
Nami Mid Game
Move with your team in the mid game and spread heals and CC in skirmishes. The Skill 1 bubble is hard to land alone. Chain it onto your allies' CC to make it connect.
Nami Late Game
Late game, stay beside your carries and protect them with heals and buffs. Keep watching for enemy assassins. Holding a position where you cannot be caught comes first.
Nami Teamfights
In teamfights, the Ult wave decides the outcome. It works for engaging and for countering a dive. Land Skill 1 on slowed enemies and focus them down with your team.
⚠️ Common Mistakes
Throwing the bubble (Skill 1) without setup
Avoid throwing the Skill 1 bubble without any setup. The projectile is slow, so it is easy to dodge, and missing it leaves you open to an engage. Chain it onto allied CC or follow the slow from your Lv5 Ult (Tidal Wave).
Nami Combos
Basic Trade
Cast Skill 3 on yourself for slowing autos, which makes Skill 1 far easier to land.
Full Combo
Knock them up with the wave from Ult, then chain follow-up CC and healing.
