Nami vs Vel'Koz

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Deny Vel'Koz poke by controlling side brush and protecting ADC positioning.
Enable ADC trades with (E) empowered autos and sustain from (W) to outlast poke.
Hold (Q) bubble for slowed or committed targets to secure follow-up or peel.

Trading pattern

Buff ADC trades with (E) and (W) bounce, then follow slows with (Q) for pick potential.
Avoid raw (Q) fishing; wait for enemy engage cooldowns to expire before initiating trades.
Use brush control and cooldown tracking to land (Q) bubble after slows or ADC commits.

Danger windows

Respect Vel'Koz's split (Q) poke angles that threaten ADC positioning from range.
Beware of (E) knockup enabling burst on your ADC; hold peel for this engage.
Avoid grouped fights when Vel'Koz channels (R); save peel to interrupt or disengage.

Early game

Win level 2 race to unlock (E)+(W) trades and gain early sustain advantage.
Maintain brush control to limit Vel'Koz's split (Q) poke angles and protect ADC.
Coordinate wave crash with ADC before roaming to keep lane safe and vision intact.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (E)+(W) trades; contest wave only if ADC can follow your threat.
Level 3 grants full kit; use brush control and cooldown tracking to land (Q) bubble.
Level 6 (R) enables strong engage or disengage; use with confirmed ADC follow-up and river vision.

Win conditions

Convert brush control and poke windows into ADC access denial and lane priority.
Use (R) with ADC follow-up to secure dragon setups or force enemy resets.
Ward river and track Vel'Koz's roam timer to protect mid and maintain lane safety.

Tip: For Nami vs Vel'Koz, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Support lane check.
