How to Counter Neeko with Nami in LoL

The stats shown on this page clarify some vital Nami against Neeko counter statistics that can help you understand the distinctions between the two. For instance, Nami’s KDA ratio ([kills + assists] / deaths) of NaN is more than Neeko’s KDA ratio of NaN, demonstrating that Nami may be more central to her team's team fighting capacity than Neeko. This observation is largely caused by the differences in assists.

Nami usually has a significantly smaller longest killing spree than her counter does. Typically, she receives less damage than Neeko. This is usually reflective of different amounts of tankyness; however, it can also illustrate that the champ with higher HP has less agility and thus is unable to escape additional harm when poked or engaged.
