What makes Naafiri dangerous
Naafiri hunts with a pack of hounds that leap on her targets, throws twin missiles that mark and re-cast for missing-HP damage, dashes through units, and her ultimate super-charges the pack with vision, speed and shields for a committed dive.
How to play against Naafiri
- 1Kill the hounds with AoE — the pack IS her damage.
- 2Never walk alone mid-late: she deletes isolated squishies.
- 3Her dive is all-in: survive the first rotation and she's toothless.
- 4Exhaust/armor blunt the whole pack burst.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓AoE melts the hounds and her damage with them.
- ✓Predictable one-rotation assassin pattern.
- ✓No CC at all — pure damage check.
- ✓Grouped teams starve her isolation hunts.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Naafiri's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
늘어나는 무리나피리가 자신이 공격하거나 스킬을 사용하는 대상을 함께 공격하는 무리를 소환합니다.
Strong: her hound pack leaps and shreds alongside every spell. Weak: hounds die to AoE — clear them and half her DPS vanishes.
Q
다르킨 단검나피리가 최대 두 개의 단검을 던져 각 단검으로 출혈을 일으킵니다. 대상이 이미 출혈 상태라면 그 대신 추가 피해를 입힙니다.무리가 이 스킬에 처음 적중당한 챔피언 또는 몬스터를 향해 도약해 공격합니다.
Strong: twin daggers — the second detonates for missing-HP damage. Weak: both are straight lines — one sidestep beats the pair.
W
무리의 부름나피리가 대상으로 지정할 수 없는 상태가 되고 무리를 강화하며 추가로 무리를 소환하고 이동 속도와 공격력이 증가합니다.
Strong: a long dash-through with the whole pack — her gank opener. Weak: a telegraphed straight line with a wind-up; CC her mid-flight.
E
적출나피리가 돌진해 주변 적에게 피해를 입히고 무리를 다시 불러 체력을 최대로 회복시킵니다.
Strong: a short dash-slice that resets pack aggression. Weak: tiny range — kite her between casts.
R
사냥개의 추적나피리와 무리가 챔피언에게 돌진해 피해를 입힙니다. 나피리가 처치 관여를 달성하면 주위 적들을 드러내고 이 스킬을 한 번 재사용할 수 있습니다. 두 번째 사용 시 보호막을 얻습니다.
Strong: super-charges the pack with vision, speed and shields for the dive. Weak: it's still just stats — survive the rotation and she has nothing left.
Itemization
Group, AoE the pack, hold one defensive tool for her rotation. She can't peel or CC — just survive the leap.
