Who Wins
- You win pre-6 trades through superior range and burst potential, but post-6 becomes more even as Kog'Maw gains significant DPS and Nami's R provides strong disengage.
- Your early game pressure advantage diminishes as the lane progresses due to their scaling.
Synergy & Trading
- Lead with W on minions to hit both enemies, then follow with Q for stun and E spread - let Nilah engage after your poke lands.
- Your role is to chunk them before Nilah commits, as her melee range makes direct engages risky without prior damage.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Push aggressively early to deny Kog'Maw farm and create roam opportunities, but avoid overextending past river without vision.
- Maintain minion advantage to enable your W poke through the wave while preventing Kog'Maw from safely farming.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste Q on minions when enemies are in range for combo potential, as it's your only reliable CC.
- Avoid using abilities on cooldown without purpose, as Nami can easily sustain through your poke if you don't commit to meaningful trades.
