Nami, new support!

[Axethor]

Leblanc has No wave clearing power bar her W, So people will still force it if they want too! The Other moves don't scale that badly off ap, Would be more of a utility AP champ, would probably require double ap.

That said, loving a new support to add to my play list.

LeBlanc has killing power though, which Nami most certainly lacks.

[Thelxi]

Nami has much better harass than LB though, so I would hold your horses for the moment.

Edit time, video is out, here's what they all look like:

YES I CALLED HER ULT!! rofl My friend and I were talking about her when her pic was released. I said it would be cool if she summoned a tidal wave that knocks enemies back or up.

She looks really good in game. Might actually get her.

Of course she has harass but she doesn't seem to be able to do an AP carry's role.

She's a support, and she won't be like Lulu release.

[Thelxi]

Both your opinions (Majad, Axethor) bout her not being a viable mid are very subjective without any proof.

Lets wait a bit to see how things turn out.

At least for release her AP ratios are through the roof amazing making her very viable.

(I'm sorry for the hate or if this sounds hateful)


What you mean viable? As an AP mid? Who cares? She wasn't made to be an ap mid champion, she only needs to be viable as a support, not an AP mid champion, that's what I'm hoping for.

Riot needs to make their champions roles clear cut, not "he is this way, but ohh he can be this way" Like Yi. I mention Yi mainly cause I got berated by my team for playing Yi AD.

Actually I do have proof. Every match on the PBE has had one or two Nami players in it, and a few have gone mid. It doesn't work.

[Dundebuns]

Not sure I like the whole swimming in a moving puddle of water. May not change my plans to get Swain first.

[fiif]

I think she could be alot like janna mid, with less clearing power but much better team fighting. She is not the traditional burst damage mid laner but instead a more damage over time , cc mid. It might work but we will have to see. What will really decide if she is played there or not is if pros play her there if they don't and you try to you will be called a troll

[Silent]

Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Maybe a little, magic trick. >: )

My dear friend Duro, you know me too well
*poof* smoke cloud *

[Davendwarf]

...No Nami-swan?

[Migey]

Okay...

This whole ''IS SHE VIABLE MID PLX?'' is kinda annoying.

Who cares if she is viable mid? She will obviously NOT be the best mid, a high tier mid, a competitive mid, whatever. There are a LOT of champions which aren't mid which could be played mid. Know why they aren't? Cause a lot more champions can do it MUCH better.

Nami looks like a wonderful support and I like her look a great deal though.

[Majad]

To be honest, I worded what I said in a few posts.

I don't care if she can mid, top, jungle or ad carry, I only care that she can be a viable and good support, that's all I want, a support.

[Tenhou]

Having now seen what she can do, i can tell for sure that im going to get her and play her support. Some lovely abilities etc which seem really fun. The range on that tidal wave though 0.o

[Proberly]

About time we got a new support!

Next I'd like a tanky top, something as tanky as mundo/singed.

[Maelle]

Sat here hurling money at my screen in anticipation... I play mostly sona / janna supports and she seems to really be something I would like, I also love her look....

Do want!

That ultimate looks so cool.

It can wait until after Robin-chwwaan!

But seriously. I got my IP ready. Going to have a ton of fun between her and the new masteries.

[Kenai]

Will be upset if we don't get a Pirate Nami skin by this time next year.

I can agree with this. We get few enough supports released already (even less that are competitive) and we have literally tons of viable mids, more than any other available role iirc. I don't think it's too much to ask for for a support class to be objectively superior at support vs other roles, especially with the incoming item revamps.
