How to win lane as Lissandra against Naafiri · 53.13% win rate over 5,430 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Level 1 is even as both farm and trade around dodging Naafiri's Q daggers. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Level 2 stays skill-based since her packmate poke trades roughly with your E-Q harass. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3 remains even with neither champ holding a decisive all-in before ultimates. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 are still a skill dodge-fight around her sustained Q pressure versus your spacing. |
| Level 6 | Lissandra | Level 6 flips to you: R is a point-and-click stop that cancels her W+R dash all-in. |
| First item | Lissandra | First item stays yours because your self-peel and CC beat her commit-heavy engage pattern. |
| Two+ items | Lissandra | With 2+ items you keep the edge via engage and self-R survivability against her skirmish game. |
Levels 1-4 are an even skill matchup: Naafiri's Q daggers are her poke and her packmates telegraph the all-in, so spacing with E and dodging keeps trades neutral. She has sustained pressure, so don't get greedy, but nothing here is a hard loss.
