Who Wins the Nami vs Anivia Matchup?

Nami vs Anivia Matchup Summary
The Nami vs Anivia matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 26 recent matches analyzed, Anivia wins with a 57.7% win rate compared to Nami's 42.3%, giving Anivia a 15.4 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Nami controls the early laning stage, but Anivia outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Nami needs to press advantages before Anivia reaches their power spikes, while Anivia should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in CS, where Anivia leads by 1.0 CS/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Anivia has a strong advantage in this matchup. Nami players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Anivia overextending. Avoid prolonged trades and wait for team fights where positioning and coordination matter more. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Early Game vs Late Game
Nami dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 53.9% win rate — a 7.7 percentage point lead over Anivia. This lopsided early game means Nami can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.
