Learn how to Naafiri counter with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Place wards in river and jungle entrances to track Naafiri's movements — her ganks rely on surprise and her W channel reveals her intentions before she commits.
Basic Lane Phase
Stay grouped after the laning phase — Naafiri excels at catching isolated targets but struggles against coordinated teams where her single-target focus is less effective.
Late Game
Use crowd control to interrupt Naafiri during her W channel — canceling Hounds' Pursuit puts half its cooldown (7-11 seconds) back and prevents her engage.
Skirmish
When Naafiri activates her ultimate, play defensively for 15 seconds — her Packmates are 25% stronger, respawn faster, and she gets a shield on her first champion hit.
Skirmish Team Fight
Be cautious when low on health against Naafiri — her Q deals up to double damage against bleeding targets with low health and also heals her when hitting champions.
Basic Lane Phase Skirmish
Ward objectives like Drake and Herald when they're up — Naafiri's Packmates make her exceptionally good at securing objectives quickly without being seen.
Basic Late Game
Look to engage on Naafiri after she uses her E (Eviscerate) — this is her only unconditional dash ability and has an 8-10 second cooldown.
Skirmish
Counter-jungle when Naafiri appears for a gank on the opposite side of the map — she'll lose valuable camps and experience during her weaker early game.
Advanced Lane Phase
Target Naafiri's Packmates first in team fights — they contribute significant damage, and without them, her burst potential and crowd control impact are substantially reduced.
Team Fight
When Naafiri uses her ultimate, she gains vision of the surrounding area and reveals nearby champions for 4 seconds, making surprise plays difficult.
