How to Play with Sion as Nami in LoL

The Nami Sion synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Sion, 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 very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Sion. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Sion helps Nami perform poorer in ranked LoL matches. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Nami tries to synergize with Sion, she observes a small increase in her full damage dealt. This could demonstrate that Sion provides cover for her to dish out more damage or that his participation also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Nami is played alongside Sion 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 alongside Sion.

Additionally, when Nami plays with Sion on the same side, she on average takes a little more damage than when she plays alone. Getting dealt more damage may mean that Sion does a poor job of protecting Nami during team fights.

Is Nami better when played alongside Sion?

There is no universally accepted best companion for Nami that will 100% of the time be her best teammate. Yet, overall, Sion is a good companion for Nami. By being on the same team as Nami, he raises their win rate by 1.1% to 50.2%. This shows that there is a potentially meaningful bond between Nami and Sion that results in them performing better together than without each other.

Sion has a lower difficulty than Nami. That means Nami players don't need to be cautious when enlisting Sion teammates to fight alongside, as they will require a lower level of skill to play well with you.

Fighting alongside, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to buff allies and debuff enemies. When paired, these champions should be able to manipulate the pace of team fights.

Conversely, by aligning Nami and Sion together, you probably will not be providing your other allies very much sustained damage output. Plan to bring other champions on your team that offsets this gap in this pairing's kit.

Regardless of your Sion ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
