Guide to Synergizing Nami and Azir

Tips for Playing as Nami with Azir

Nami's ultimate can come in very handy for initiating on enemies who are far away.

Using Ebb and Flow during an engagement with enemy champions will help sway the battle in your favor.

Aqua Prison has a long cooldown, make sure to use it at the right moment.

Advice to Understand How Azir Will Play

Be a bird!

In the lane, try to position your soldiers between the enemy's minions and the enemy champion. This way you can use them both to last hit and to project threat onto your lane opponent.

Be careful about putting down both of the soldiers stored by Arise! Unless you're going all-in, always have a soldier in your back pocket if you need to escape over a wall or if you misposition your other soldier and need damage now.

Think of Emperor's Divide as a defensive ability first and foremost. Use it when the enemy engages on you or your allies. Remember that your team can walk through the soldiers summoned by Emperor's Divide and use this to your advantage when enemy melee champions engage on you.

How to Play with Azir as Nami in LoL

The Nami Azir synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Azir, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Nami sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Azir. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Azir helps Nami perform worse in competitive LoL matches. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Nami plays on the same team as Azir, she gets a little decrease in her complete damage dealt. This change may signal that Azir doesn't help cover for her to dish out more damage or that his participation also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Nami is played alongside Azir on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Azir.

Additionally, when Nami plays with Azir on the same team, she on average receives a little less damage than when she plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could mean that Azir does a decent job of protecting Nami during team fights.

Is Nami better when played alongside Azir?

There is no perfect synergy for Nami that will always be her top teammate. However, overall, Azir is a very typical ally for Nami. By locking into the same team as Nami, he drops their win rate by -0.5% to 48.6%. This demonstrates that there is not really a strong bond between Nami and Azir that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Azir has a much greater difficulty compared to Nami. That means Nami players must be very careful when lining up Azir teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a much greater level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

When playing together, you should witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magical damage. Combined, these champs can blast through enemies with magic damage.

In contrast, by pairing Nami and Azir together, you will not be giving your other teammates enough tankyness. Plan to include other champions on your team that helps cover this hole in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of the ability of your Azir ally, you should focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
