Naafiri vs Twisted Fate

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Naafiri must manage her Q poke to chip Twisted Fate before committing to all-ins.
Maintain medium lane pressure to prevent Twisted Fate from safely using Gold Card for picks or roams.

Trading pattern

Start trades with Q poke to apply bleed and wait for Twisted Fate to use W or mobility.
Commit W and E only when Twisted Fate’s Gold Card stun is on cooldown or he is low health.
Avoid engaging if Q misses or if Twisted Fate’s crowd control is available to punish your W dash.

Danger windows

When Twisted Fate has Gold Card ready, avoid close range to prevent stun trades.
Committing W into Twisted Fate’s crowd control or minion blockers can lead to easy punishment.
Be cautious if wave state traps Naafiri’s engage path, making her W predictable and unsafe.

Early game

Use Q to poke and keep Twisted Fate low before level 6.
Avoid committing W unless Twisted Fate's Gold Card stun is down or he has no crowd control ready.
Control wave to prevent Twisted Fate from gaining priority for R roams.

Power spikes

Level 6 R significantly increases Naafiri's chase and burst potential.
First lethality item spike enhances Q poke and all-in damage.
Respect Twisted Fate’s level 6 R for map pressure and pick potential.

Win conditions

Chip Twisted Fate with Q to create kill pressure and bait out his Gold Card.
Use R to enhance chase and secure kills on isolated or low-health Twisted Fate.
Deny Twisted Fate wave control and roam opportunities by maintaining lane pressure and punishing his cooldowns.

Tip: For Naafiri vs Twisted Fate, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
