[@PekinWoof]

Have so many comments about saving my packmates using my E in lane that I wanted to give my own thoughts on it so far. -Packmates early on damage wise do about 9 damage a hit (Level 3 against Ahri they hit 2 times before dying for a total of 36 Damage), I believe that this damage is worth more than saving them which also puts my escape and engage on cooldown. -I REALLY think Naafiri's E is strong and using it just to save the barely useful packmates is never going to be worth it unless you are in midgame poke fights past level 13 when your E is lvl 5. But even then I still think having E is useful -If I do recall them I might even miss out on some of that damage if not timed perfectly -Packmates respawn so fast because hitting spells reduce passive by 4 and killing minions by 1 -I have not yet seen any Naafiri's in High Elo use E to save Packmates yet which to me means everyone understands it's not worth saving them Because so many people did bring up the saving of packmates though I'm going to be watching some VODS of pros and Challengers playing her. I could be totally wrong and want to play her optimally so if it turns out that saving them is strong then you will definitely see me do that in future videos

[@goldensoul7461]

They use all of your on hit modifiers, def worth saving IMO

[@JohnDoe-rt1nt]

@@goldensoul7461 I feel like Pekin mostly talked there about early game and lane phase, so he has no on-hits, or did I get it wrong? Otherwise, yes, mates are strong and I think that saving them is one of her core mechanics to keep her dps high.

[@Chris-rz3wq]

9 damage is soooo much though. Remember how they took 5 damage off Olaf Q and now he's the worst toplaner?

[@alexsomby7634]

Olaf has a 53.7% wr in top, definitely not the worst top laner.

[@JohnDoe-rt1nt]

@@Chris-rz3wqSometimes I feel like league players are overreacting with stuff like that.

[@wverms]

Naafiri's little helpers keep her attack speed so Hail of Blades is reeeally nice on her for all-ins! Same reason Berserker's Greaves are a genuine consideration.

[@wverms]

Well, since I have the opportunity: - You instastack Black Cleaver at level 9 with your R and W (also keeps you a little less squishy). - The flip in your W is an auto. - Your packmates will prioritize standing behind you. - Your packmates will occasionally CS without you commanding them to. - Your packmates do around one-quarter to one-third of your damage in a game. (At least, as long as the Eternal is correct.)

[@DustinHarms]

I'm not gonna pretend this was the most exciting game ever, but I'm glad you shared. Naafiri is a pretty cool champ and I'd love to see more high elo gameplay vs. the smurf content out there

:0 this is actually really neat to see high elo naafiri with, thanks penkin!

[@novamicer]

nothing counters pekin quite as much as the name of the new champion

[@voidroad]

serylda is really insane on her for the same reason its good on yorick (and the bleed also permaprocs it)

[@zedre7633]

I think one of the underrated things about this girl is, unless you're using target champions only, it's really easy to hit one of the little doggies instead of her with point and click skills.

[@brunolanglais662]

You can only hit them with AOE afaik. Would be pretty ridiculous otherwise.

[@itsducklan]

@@brunolanglais662 nope, laned against an irelia who just farmed free stacks against my dogs, still won and destroyed the game but it was a depressing lane

[@Chris-rz3wq]

I think you should consider using E backwards more when you go for Q trades, because Ahri always seems able to oneshot all your packmates which are like 40-60s (base) to recoup. Conserving packmates in lane might end up being one of the main things you play around in lane as/against naafiri to dictate your all-in opportunities. Notice they made the E mana cost low too :)

[@cote_live8554]

I've tried her first against a Garen bot on intermediate (I know, it's just a bot). The moment he spins, you just want to E out of there. It's not worth losing your pack and therefore your lane pressure

[@cryfier]

he already explained in the pinned comment why this is useless

18:09 Wait, turrets target Naafiri's packmates before her???

[@Da5kone001]

like daisy or heimer turrets or maiden ect ye

[@austinhensley6553]

my thoughts on nafiri, shes clearly intended to be an assassin but i feel like she will become more of a bruiser unless they do some major tweaking. you can have 11 kills and have extreme difficulty 1 doing the assassin thing and gray screening squishies. she has arguably the hardest time getting into and out of fights of any dedicated assassin. she feels like a mix of vi and akali in that shes not really a real assassin but she can only go in, and that leaves her way too vulnerable to be reliable without just having giant numbers that really aren't healthy

[@kbees3543]

I’m honestly confused, in these trades wouldn’t it be best to use e to recall the pack mates and heal them? Can’t wait to see all the tech w naafiri

[@MrMagicRman]

Yeah given it only costs 35 mana with such a small cooldown i was screaming at pekin to utilise his E for trades and waveclear

[@Teal-Templar]

I believe when he was wondering about beating khazix that naafiri is most likely a counter as her pack will make it so she is not able to be isolated for his passive. So even though khazix is strong a lot of his damage and utility work around isolation and she can beat him fairly easy.

[@shanaxis9074]

Pekin looking a bit Naafirious today

[@Trollripper]

Nice to see high elo Naafiri but it triggered the fuck out of me when he never used his E in order to get his packmates back or when ahri tried to hit on them.

[@redditlivelovelaugh5578]

I think stridebreaker on naafiri has pretty good synergy as it can help land her double q and with her w you can always be on top of them

[@brunolanglais662]

I think she should always go Serylda's pretty early because of the slows

[@Thefamousegrouse]

Naafiri is a god like kha counter if the pups count like a minion

[@Zoey--]

2:59 late charm but it went THROUGH you due to the end of the dash putting you behind her. I'd be so tilted if that was me on Ahri. Mind you I'd have flashed back with the charm seeing you were going all in. Also calling it now the thing Riot nerfs on Naafiri is that ludicrous shield ratio. 600+ shield refreshing per takedown is kind of busted.

[@chad6060]

shield only refreshes on first takedown

[@TwoToo_]

can't wait to farm up enough essence and play naafiri... in support 😈 adcs will fear me (my adcs) and my midlaners will love me 😈😈

[@rileycorrigan5593]

Ranked splits now give champion permanents, so you could just play enough ranked to get her.

[@rhay5878]

The hardest part of this game for pekin was probably to say her name right

[@xodealt4831]

So I’ve played some naafiri in arena and some mid and twice I had her w glitch and instead of going to the enemy I would dash towards the way I first started instead of actually following the targeted champ. Anyone else experience this yet? and I’ve already put a ticket in for it.

[@TheBangalize]

Happened to me as well in arena. I just teleported to middle of the arena for no reason

Counterpoint to the magical footwear thing, Talon is a heavy roam champ In almost all cases his runes contain magical footwear

[@GrandLufaine]

[@subyouwont]

Hi pekin. I think your naafy gameplay could improve if you use your e to save your packmates more often. An ex being post when you guys couldn’t do baron and you got caught chasing the blitz by the ahri charm. If your packmates were alive it would of blocked it

[@amyt.7401]

Yayyy new video

As Ahri main I 100% can say, this small zergling dogs shoudnt block my charm. I dunno how riot think this is fair.

Isn't she just a scaling Rengar?

[@jordojackcats1]

I wonder if bruiser would be nice on her

[@Da5kone001]

just coppied and paste my other reply but same concept so : the dogs die pretty easily in extended trades and her ratios are bonus ad not total so she scales really poorly if not built ad

@@Black2overlord i havnt done the math but the shield and heal both scale with bonus ad no? The shield also refreshes on kill and the heal has a very short cd, flat ad will make you tankier at most points in the game than building bruiser i would guess but once again I havnt done the math or thrown enough theoretical builds together to care. AD Thresh has been done and works as well, i dont know if that makes it the best way to play him though

Man ahri is one of the most forgiving champions in the game. I honestly don’t know how anyone can be bad at her. Nearly impossible to kill in lane, charm for disengage , passive healing, and if all else fails, dash across the entire map in 2 seconds
