Playing as Nami

  • Aqua Prison has a long cooldown, make sure to use it at the right moment.
  • Using Ebb and Flow during an engagement with enemy champions will help sway the battle in your favor.
  • Nami's ultimate can come in very handy for initiating on enemies who are far away.

Playing against Nami

  • Aqua Prison is a very powerful ability with a long cooldown, take advantage of the situation if Nami misses this ability.
  • Tidal Wave has a very long range but travels slowly, be aware of when it is coming your way as you can move out of its path.
  • Try to avoid fighting an opponent affected by Tidecaller's Blessing, it lasts a short duration so waiting it out can help you greatly.
