Learn how to Nami counter with these essential tips.

All
Look to trade aggressively when Nami's W is on cooldown (10 seconds) — her damage and sustain are significantly reduced without this ability.
Lane Phase
Move sideways rather than directly backward when dodging Nami's Q — the 0.7 second bubble delay makes sideways movement much harder for her to predict.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Maintain vision in river and lane bushes after Nami reaches level 6 — her long-range ultimate can initiate fights from fog of war or set up ganks.
Lane Phase
Position away from your ally when Nami uses her W — preventing the bounce denies her healing while still taking damage.
Lane Phase
Avoid fighting in jungle corridors or near objectives against Nami — her ultimate is much more effective in confined spaces where it's difficult to dodge.
Team Fight Late Game
Track Nami's Q cooldown (12-8 seconds based on rank) — when her bubble is unavailable, she has no hard CC to protect herself or her ally.
Advanced Lane Phase Skirmish
Play cautiously at levels 1-2 against Nami — she has strong early poke and trading potential that can establish lane dominance.
Basic Lane Phase
Disengage temporarily when Nami uses her E on an ally — the empowered attacks deal bonus damage and apply slows for 6 seconds.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Focus Nami first in teamfights when possible — eliminating her early prevents her from providing healing, CC, and empowerment to her team.
