How to Play with Naafiri as Qiyana in LoL

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

Overall, Qiyana sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Naafiri. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Naafiri helps Qiyana perform worse in competitive League rounds. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Qiyana tries to synergize with Naafiri, she sees a moderate decrease in her complete damage dealt. This could demonstrate that Naafiri does not help protection for her to deal more damage or that their presence on the team also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Qiyana is played together with Naafiri on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays without Naafiri. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Naafiri.

Moreover, when Qiyana plays with Naafiri on the same team, she typically takes a little more damage than when she fights alone. Receiving more damage could indicate that Naafiri does a poor job of covering Qiyana in teamfights.

Is Qiyana better when played alongside Naafiri?

There is no universally accepted best companion for Qiyana that will 100% of the time be her #1 teammate. Yet, Naafiri is a relatively poor companion for Qiyana. By locking into the same team as Qiyana, they decreases their win rate by -2.8% to 45.0%. This clearly indicates that there is a harmful synergy between Qiyana and Naafiri that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Naafiri has a much lower diffuclty than Qiyana. That means Qiyana players don't need to be very careful when enlisting Naafiri comrades to play with, as they will require a much lower level of skill to cooperate well with you.

Playing alongside, you will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. Together, these champs can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

Although, by aligning Qiyana and Naafiri together, you probably will not be granting your other allies much AP. Plan to have other champs on your team that offsets this relative hole in their potential.

Regardless of the ability of your Naafiri ally, you should focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
