Playing as Nami

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Bubble a slowed target

    Cast Aqua Prison (Q) on a slowed or immobile target, or where they're heading: the bubble lands in an area and stuns every enemy on impact.

  2. Bless your ADC before their trade

    Cast Tidecaller's Blessing (E) on your ADC just before they trade: their next autos and abilities slow and deal bonus magic damage.

  3. Bounce your Ebb and Flow

    Cast Ebb and Flow (W) so it bounces from one champion to another: it heals each ally, damages each enemy, and only hits the same champion once.

  4. Tidal Wave to engage or disengage

    Cast Tidal Wave (R) to engage or to break an enemy engage: enemies hit take a knock-up and a slow, which lasts longer on those farther away.

Playing against Yuumi

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Keep minions between you and her: Prowling Projectile (Q) stops on the first enemy hit, and once accelerated, it slows hard.

  2. CC her as soon as she detaches

    If you have CC, save it for the moment she detaches: once immobilized, she can't recast You and Me! (W) for a while.

  3. Focus the champion carrying her

    Focus the champion carrying Yuumi: attached with You and Me! (W), she can only be targeted by towers, and without them she's left exposed.

  4. Cut her healing

    If you have Grievous Wounds, apply it to the champion carrying her: they receive her healing, including from Final Chapter (R).
