Scuttle Contest

  • You win scuttle fights at level 3 through superior base stats and Q healing sustain.

Predicted Jungle Path

  • Naafiri will likely path aggressively toward your jungle after her first clear, looking for picks or counter-jungling opportunities.
  • She may also attempt vertical jungling to avoid direct confrontation while farming efficiently on the opposite side of the map.

Invade or Not

  • You shouldn't actively invade Naafiri as she can easily escape with her mobility and you're vulnerable to her team's collapse.
  • Focus on controlling river objectives and punishing her when she comes to you - your strength is in defensive positioning and objective control.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't chase Naafiri through walls or into unwarded areas where she can turn the fight with her team.
  • Avoid using your E pull predictably as good Naafiri players will save their mobility to dodge it and re-engage when your cooldowns are down.
