Playing against Nami

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Her Q bubble is slow and predictable — keep moving constantly to dodge it.

2

Nami is squishy: if you catch her with CC, she dies quickly.

3

Her R is wide but slow — sidestep or dash to avoid it.

4

Engage when her Q is on cooldown (10s): it's her only hard CC outside of her ult.
