Meddler thoughts on nami..?

Rivuo··1 votes·2,758 views

Right now it looks like she has too much kill potential and sustain for her adc.. its starting to look overloaded and pretty oppressive when any form of auto harassment is immediately healed up

We don't currently have any plans to nerf Nami. She's getting some Worlds play certainly, and is looking pretty effective, but not excessively so at present. We're also coming up to pre-season, which will shake things up a fair bit balance wise. We'll reassess after that as a result.

Do some changes that appear to be nerfs but don't really do much, so that it's less likely she is picked away from me :3

Patch 6.21

Nami has been getting pretty strong lately, but due to her adorableness we decided to give her a love tap.

Base AD: 51.2 => 51

This will make her perfectly balanced.

Kill Potential? Nami?

You sure you just aren't seeing her ADC AA you?

You obviously have never played adc... Nami trades so hard with you and one bubble is murder

TyrekGoldenspear4 votes

Ha ha no.

I've played ADC and Support.

Nami is fine. She is predictable and If you get hit by her bubble more than twice I'm sorry but you deserve the lost trade.

I wouldn't be too sure mate. You meet a lot of Mastery 7s and one tricks in Silver IV.

But at least I know how to deal with her.

And why on earth are you bringing up my rank lol, you're Silver III.

Are you new to this rank shaming thing? Because I'm not impressed.

Mains P3 adc main. And its not always about ''oh i know how to deal with her!'' its her heal is way too potent.

So why didn't you just post from your main instead of a smurf?

You have more credability that way.

My reasons and arguments should be taken into consideration whether im bronze 5 or Diamond 1.

Because when you say '' you just dont know how to deal with her''

ive been fighting her for a long time now. Almost every game is a janna/nami

It doesnt mean i think shes fair.

My problem with Nami is Her heal is so extremely strong and she trades extremely well... Nami is able to chunk adcs by herself in lane. my duos do it all the time..

Her bubble allows her adc to set up and it has a looot of kill potential.

I just think she needs her heal nerfed a tad bit and thats it.. Nothing else.

TyrekGoldenspear1 votes

Well when you put it that way...

Fair enough.

Lemme just get to Silver III with Nami.

Their are tradeoffs for this power.

  • She's very squishy and has very little means of escape.
  • Her burst isn't as strong as someone like Karma or Sona, and falls off quickly.
  • Ebb & Flow (heal) is very mana inefficient if you aren't making it bounce, so you have to always do a little extra to make that happen.
  • Aqua Prison (bubble) is one of the hardest CC's to land.

Countering Nami is not difficult; anyone that can burst harder than her (or lock her down for someone else to do it) just has to dodge the Aqua Prison and she will either lose or be relegated to playing extremely passive, which is not her strength.

Thanks DTN for the rundown, I haven't played against a Nami in forever so I had nothing.

Sona Blitzcrank Janna Karma Lux Nami Velkoz Zilean Zyra

Are all ''squishy'' and have ''little means of escape''

  • Her burst isn't as strong as someone like Karma or Sona, and falls off quickly.

Her burst isnt as strong as someone like karma or sona yes, but nami excels in other areas...Sona cant peel without her ult, nami can.

  • Ebb & Flow (heal) is very mana inefficient if you aren't making it bounce, so you have to always do a little extra to make that happen.

Yeah and sorakas heal is very health inefficient.. 12% to be exact..

  • Aqua Prison (bubble) is one of the hardest CC's to land.

Pretty sure thats your opinion. When you master a champ landing ccs gets easier.

From what you wrote, You are completely biased on Nami. You leave points that are very easily countered like saying ''shes squishy''.. Yeah.. Most ranged supports are squishy bud... Why is nami the exception..?

I'd much rather not argue with you ( Someone named ''deep terror nami'') over the balance of nami

Thanks and goodluck.

This is obvious. I have no problem landing it because I have mastered her at least to a level appropriate for my elo. Most people have not mastered the champs they are playing.

From what you wrote, You are completely biased on Nami.

I did not suggest that other champions do not have similar or worse weaknesses on any of those points, or that she is worse in every category compared to someone else. These are simply hers. Are you saying she has no weakness?

A Nami main wouldn't be biased when outlining the pros and cons of the champion they main.

Instead of shutting them off, you should take their advice.

Good luck with that. This guy takes no opinions but ones that agree with him. >.>

She's seeing a huge amount of play in Worlds apparently.

She could use a nerf to her heal. Its a little too potent for how much kill pressure and peel she has.

LOL.... Her heal is normal when you dont have a WINDSPEAKERS BLESSING in masteries. Bounce i not problem too. If you know how to play agains her you can easily win the lane.
