How to Play with Naafiri as Vi in LoL

The Vi 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, Vi sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Naafiri. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Naafiri helps Vi perform poorer in competitive League of Legends matches. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Vi tries to synergize with Naafiri, she gets a small decrease in her total damage output. This may signal that Naafiri does not help cover for her to dish out more damage or that their participation also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Vi is played together with Naafiri on the same team, 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 Naafiri.

Additionally, when Vi plays with Naafiri on the same side, she on average receives a little less damage than when she plays alone. Receiving not as much damage could indicate that Naafiri does a decent job of protecting Vi in teamfights.

Is Vi better when played alongside Naafiri?

There is no one best champion pairing for Vi that will no matter what be her best teammate. Yet, Naafiri is a below average teammate for Vi. By locking into the same team as Vi, they drops their win rate by -2.8% to 48.8%. This demonstrates that there is a bad strategic relationship between Vi and Naafiri that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Naafiri has a lower difficulty than Vi. That means Vi players don't need to be very careful when lining up Naafiri teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a lower level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Working alongside, you should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal physical damage. Together, these champions can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Although, by pairing Vi and Naafiri together, you will not be granting your team much AP. Plan to bring other champs on your team that neutralizes this gap in their abilities.

Regardless of the ability of your Naafiri ally, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
