How to Play with Elise as Nami in LoL

The Nami Elise synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Elise, 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 Elise. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Elise helps Nami perform worse in competitive LoL games. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Nami is an ally to Elise, she observes a small decrease in her complete damage dealt. This difference may demonstrate that Elise does not help cover for her to dish out more damage or that her presence on the team also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Nami is played together with Elise on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays without Elise. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Elise.

Moreover, when Nami plays with Elise on the same side, she usually receives a little less damage than when she plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could mean that Elise does a decent job of protecting Nami in teamfights.

Is Nami better when played alongside Elise?

There is no universally accepted best champion pairing for Nami that will always be her ideal ally. However, overall, Elise is a very typical companion for Nami. By locking into the same team as Nami, she drops their win rate by -0.5% to 48.6%. This proves that there is a weak bond between Nami and Elise that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Elise has a much greater difficulty compared to Nami. That means you should be cautious when enlisting Elise teammates to fight alongside, as they will need a much greater level of skill to do well with you.

Working cooperatively, Nami players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magical damage. When paired, these champions can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.

Conversely, by pairing Nami and Elise together, you will not be giving your side a lot of engage potential. We recommend you have other champions on your team that offsets this disparity in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of the ability of your Elise ally, you should focus on increasing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well anyway.
