How to Play with Master Yi as Nami in LoL

The Nami Master Yi synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Master Yi, 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 Master Yi. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Master Yi helps Nami perform not as well in ranked League of Legends rounds. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Nami is an ally to Master Yi, she gets a little decrease in her complete damage dealt. This could signal that Master Yi does not provide protection for her to dish out more damage or that his support also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Nami is played together with Master Yi on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Master Yi.

Moreover, when Nami plays with Master Yi on the same team, she typically takes a little less damage than when she fights alone. Taking not as much damage may indicate that Master Yi does a decent job of protecting Nami in team fights.

Is Nami better when played alongside Master Yi?

There is no one best ally for Nami that will 100% of the time be her best teammate. However, Master Yi is a very typical teammate for Nami. By locking into the same side as Nami, he increases their win rate by 0.2% to 49.3%. This proves that there is only a small bond between Nami and Master Yi that results in them performing at the top of their game together than alone.

Master Yi has a lower difficulty than Nami. That means Nami players don't need to be very careful when arranging Master Yi teammates to fight alongside, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to fight well with you.

Fighting alongside, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to destroy wih physical damage. Together, these champs can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

In contrast, by pairing Nami and Master Yi together, you will not be granting your side a great deal of engage. Plan to include other champs on your team that helps cover this relative hole in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of your Master Yi ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well anyway.
