How to win lane as Nami against Rell · 49.48% win rate over 2,900 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Nami | Level 1 your ranged E out-harasses Rell's melee no-sustain kit. |
| Level 2 | Nami | At 2 your bubble hard-checks her W-charge engage. |
| Level 3 | Nami | Level 3 your poke war keeps her chunked before she can commit. |
| Levels 4-5 | Rell | Levels 4-5 flip as her W (Mount Up) dive becomes reliable. |
| Level 6 | Rell | Level 6 Magnet Storm (R) gives Rell a pull-in CC chain you must respect. |
| First item | Rell | Her first tank item makes her engage too durable to punish on the poke. |
| Two+ items | Nami | In 2+ item fights your peel and sustain out-value her spent CC burst. |
Levels 1-3 favor you hard: Rell is melee with no ranged poke or sustain, so your E bounce and W (Tidecaller's Blessing) chip her freely while a level-2 bubble stun-checks her W-charge engage. Hold your ADC out of dash range and win the sustain war outright.
