How to Beat Nami as Blitzcrank (Support)

Despite the slight difference in effectiveness, in the Blitzcrank versus Nami matchup as support, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

Blitzcrank deals mixed damage - the opponent has fewer options for defense. Meanwhile, Nami deals primarily magic damage (84.96%), additional magic resistance may be required.

An important advantage of Blitzcrank is superior vision control (ranked 14th among supports) (versus 25th for Nami), which provides better map control and safety for the team in important map areas. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (3.4 versus 2.4) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Blitzcrank player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Nami player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach.

    Blitzcrank tips:

    • The 1-2-3 combo of Rocket Grab, Power Fist, and Static Field can devastate an individual opponent.
    • Using Blitzcrank's grab to pull an enemy into your tower range followed by a Power Fist will allow the tower to get several hits on them.

    Playing Against Nami

    • Aqua Prison is a very powerful ability with a long cooldown, take advantage of the situation if Nami misses this ability.
    • Tidal Wave has a very long range but travels slowly, be aware of when it is coming your way as you can move out of its path.
    • Try to avoid fighting an opponent affected by Tidecaller's Blessing, it lasts a short duration so waiting it out can help you greatly.
