Janna vs Nami

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Focus on protecting your ADC from Nami's bubble and empowered ADC autos with timely shields and knockbacks.
Control brush with charged (Q) to deny Nami's engage angles and maintain safe ADC positioning.
Prioritize stable lane states enabling your scaling ADC and prepare for level 6 fight resets with (R).

Trading pattern

Hold (Q) to punish Nami's predictable bubble engages and protect your ADC with (E) shields.
Use (W) slows defensively to peel after Nami commits her poke or engage cooldowns.
Coordinate with your ADC to trade immediately after Nami wastes (Q) or (R) cooldowns to deny her follow-up.

Danger windows

Respect (Q) bubble range and slow combos which enable her ADC's burst trades.
Beware of Nami's level 6 (R) engage or disengage, which can turn fights or force your ADC out of position.
Avoid standing forward without (Q) ready to prevent getting caught by Nami's bubble or follow-up damage.

Early game

Track the level 2 race closely and only contest wave if your ADC can follow your (Q) threat.
Use brush control early to prevent Nami from landing bubble setups and to secure safe ADC trades.
Avoid pushing too hard early to reduce vulnerability to Nami's poke and bubble engage attempts.

Power spikes

Level 2: Gain shield plus knockup for disengage; use this to contest Nami's early poke and protect ADC.
Level 3: Full peel kit unlocks; leverage (Q), (E), and (W) to deny Nami's bubble setups and enable ADC trades.
Level 6: (R) provides a fight reset; use it to interrupt Nami's all-ins or disengage after enemy commits.

Win conditions

Deny Nami's engage angles by controlling brush and holding (Q) to protect your ADC's positioning.
Use (E) shields and (R) resets to enable your scaling ADC to survive poke and extended fights.
Set river vision and manage wave state to safely roam or prepare dragon objectives with your ADC intact.
