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.

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.

Anivia is far superior in the late game (25+ minutes), boasting a 69.2% win rate — 38.5 points above Nami. Extended games heavily favor Anivia, whose kit and scaling make them a dominant force in team fights and objective control.

This matchup features a dramatic power shift: Nami must aggressively press their early advantage and close out the game before Anivia reaches their scaling breakpoints. If Anivia survives the laning phase without falling too far behind, the matchup flips in their favor. Dragon and Rift Herald control are pivotal — the team that secures early objectives can snowball or buy time to scale.
