Who Wins

Pre-6, you and Nami win most extended trades due to your W passive movement speed, Q ricochet poke, and Nami's sustained healing and E empowerment — Smolder is weak early and Zyra's plants are dangerous but telegraphed, so you win if you respect her E+Q plant combos and don't stand in them.
Post-6, your R is a game-winning tool if Nami lands her R or E first to lock them in place, but Zyra's R can interrupt your channel, so you must coordinate carefully.

Your best pattern is to use Q to poke Smolder through minions while Nami applies E on you for the slow and empowered hits, then commit to a full trade only when Zyra's E is on cooldown — her plants are the primary threat to your squishiness.
Avoid extended fights when Zyra has her E up; instead, short-trade with Q and disengage using W passive speed.

Push the wave consistently with your Q ricochet to maintain pressure and deny Smolder his Q stacking farm — he needs minion kills to scale his Q, so a fast-pushed wave forces him under tower where stacking is harder.
Avoid freezing; you want to crash waves and create roam threats or dive opportunities with Nami.

Do not stand still to channel your R without Nami's crowd control landing first — Zyra's R will interrupt you and turn the fight entirely.
Also avoid walking into Zyra's E+Q plant zone to trade, as her plants deal significant damage and she can follow up with R to kill you.
