Read from Nami's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Senna.
This is Nami's own plan; across 18,367 pooled games the lane is leaning Senna.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Nami | Level 1 your E harass out-values Senna's short-range early. |
| Level 2 | Nami | At 2 your bubble stun-checks step-ups before her stacks build. |
| Level 3 | Nami | Level 3 your sustain wins the poke war while her range is short. |
| Levels 4-5 | Nami | Levels 4-5 your heals keep your ADC ahead of her early poke. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 is even: her global R (Dawning Shadow) matches your team utility. |
| First item | Nami | With first item your poke keeps pace as long as you deny her souls. |
| Two+ items | Senna | In 2+ items Senna's stacked range and crit out-scale your entire kit. |
Levels 1-4 are yours: Senna starts with short attack range and her Q (Piercing Darkness), while long, is slow and dodgeable behind minions. Bounce E and W to win the sustain war and use bubble to stun-check any step-up before her soul stacks accumulate. Her attack range starts short and her poke is long-cooldown, so take the exchanges now before the soul count grows. Push the wave so it dies at her tower, empower your carry's autos on the beat, and hold the bubble for the melee walk-up she has to make.
