Is Nami better when played alongside Leona?
There is no top champion pairing for Nami that will 100% of the time be her top ally. Yet, overall, Leona is a very bad companion for Nami. By playing on the same team as Nami, she lowers their win rate by -7.9% to 41.2%. This proves that there is a terrible strategic relationship between Nami and Leona that results in them performing worse together than alone.
Leona has a lower difficulty than Nami. That means Nami players don't need to be careful when finding Leona comrades to fight alongside, as they will need a lower level of skill to work well with you.
Working alongside, you should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to buff allies and debuff enemies. Combined, these champions will help their other teammates secure a victory.
Although, by grouping Nami and Leona together, you probably will not be providing your other allies much attack damage. We recommend you have other champs on your team that neutralizes this gap in this pairing's abilities.
Regardless of the ability of your Leona teammate, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well anyway.
