Nami vs Jhin Matchup Summary

The Nami vs Jhin matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 6 recent matches analyzed, Nami wins with a 60.0% win rate compared to Jhin's 40.0%, giving Nami a 20.0 percentage point advantage. Nami dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Jhin players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential. The most significant statistical gap is in CS, where Jhin leads by 2.2 CS/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Nami players can confidently pick into Jhin and play aggressively from level 1. Look to establish lane dominance early through favorable trades and zone Jhin away from CS whenever possible. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

524Jhin
Jhin heavily out-damages Nami by 179 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Nami should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Jhin's sustained damage advantage take over.

11,524Jhin
Jhin generates a commanding 2,231 more gold per game than Nami. This substantial economic advantage means Jhin consistently reaches key item breakpoints earlier, creating a compounding lead that grows throughout the game.
