Is Master Yi better when played alongside Nami?

There is no top synergy for Master Yi that will 100% of the time be his ideal teammate. Yet, overall, Nami is a not very good companion for Master Yi. By being on the same side as Master Yi, she lowers their win rate by -1.3% to 49.3%. This demonstrates that there is a negative bond between Master Yi and Nami that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Nami has a greater difficulty than Master Yi. That means Master Yi players need to be very careful when enlisting Nami comrades to play with, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Playing cooperatively, Master Yi players should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to destroy wih physical damage. When paired, these champs can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

Although, by bringing Master Yi and Nami together, you may not be granting your side very much engage. Make sure to have other champs on your team that nullifies this gap in their capabilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Nami teammate, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
