  • Both champions' overall Support win rates predict 47.1% for Nami; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Leona usually wins the lane: 93 gold ahead of Nami at 15 minutes on average (305 games with a 15-minute snapshot).

How we calculate this

Games: ranked Solo/Duo and Flex games on the North America server from the patch shown. Remakes (games under 5 minutes) are excluded.

A game only counts when Nami and Leona played the same position on opposite teams, so roaming, lane swaps within a team or a champion merely being in the same game never count as this matchup.

The 95% range is a Wilson score interval. Confidence comes from how wide that range is: within ±3 points is very high, ±5 high, ±8 moderate, anything wider low. Below 20 games a matchup is not classified at all.

Expected win rate combines both champions’ win rates in this lane (same games and filters) with the log5 formula: E = A(1−B) / (A(1−B) + B(1−A)). Matchup effect = observed − expected.

"What changes" compares Nami's choices in this matchup with the same champion's other games in the same lane, and lists a change only when it is at least 3 points and statistically significant (two-proportion z-test, |z| ≥ 2, 20+ games).

Results are not split by rank: the sample per rank is too small for honest per-rank matchup numbers.

What Nami Changes Against Leona

Choices Nami players make noticeably more or less often in this matchup than in their other Support games.

Best Nami Build vs Leona

Usual Nami build (Support)

94.4% win rate · 18 games

Against Leona

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 12 of 112 Nami games against Leona carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Nami's standard build instead.

  • Nami usually completes Echoes of Helia first, at 12.6 min (median of 154 games).
  • Leona usually completes Locket of the Iron Solari first, at 13.2 min (median of 208 games).
  • Skill priority: W > E > Q — the same as usual.

Builds are ranked by the lower edge of their win rate range, not the raw win rate, so a build seen in a handful of wins never outranks a proven one.
