Guide to Synergizing Nidalee and Ahri

Tips for Playing as Nidalee with Ahri

Use brush to your advantage! Moving in and out of brush can heavily alter your effectiveness in battle.

Start team fights by harassing with your Javelin Toss, and then switch to cougar form to chase down Hunted targets.

Bushwhack traps deal damage based on their victim's current Health. Set them up in your team's backline before fights break out during sieges to help your team deal damage to the enemy frontline.

Advice to Understand How Ahri Will Play

Initiate team fights using Charm, and chase down stragglers with Spirit Rush.

Spirit Rush enables Ahri's abilities, it opens up paths for Charm, helps double hitting with Orb of Deception, and closes to make use of Fox-Fire.

Use Charm to set up your combos, it will make landing Orb of Deception and Fox-Fire dramatically easier.

How to Play with Ahri as Nidalee in LoL

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

Overall, Nidalee sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Ahri. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Ahri helps Nidalee perform poorer in competitive League games. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Nidalee tries to synergize with Ahri, she gets a barely noticable drop in her total damage output. This difference could indicate that Ahri does not provide cover for her to deal more damage or that her presence on the team also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Nidalee is played with Ahri on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays without Ahri. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Ahri.

Additionally, when Nidalee plays with Ahri on the same side, she often receives a little more damage than when she fights alone. Taking more damage may mean that Ahri does a poor job of covering Nidalee during teamfights.

Is Nidalee better when played alongside Ahri?

There is no universally accepted best ally for Nidalee that will always be her top synergy. Yet, overall, Ahri is a very bad companion for Nidalee. By being on the same side as Nidalee, she drops their win rate by -5.9% to 38.9%. This clearly indicates that there is a very bad bond between Nidalee and Ahri that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Ahri has a much lower diffuclty than Nidalee. That means Nidalee players don't need to be very careful when lining up Ahri comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a much lower level of skill to fight well with you.

Working together, you will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magic damage. Together, these two can blast through enemies with magic damage.

Although, by grouping Nidalee and Ahri together, you probably will not be providing your side much attack damage. We recommend you include other champs on your team that nullifies this gap in their playstyle.

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