Who Wins

  • You lose level 2 all-ins due to Nautilus Q-passive combo being stronger than Lux Q, but you win level 6 trades with your R execute potential and superior range.
  • Nilah's short range makes her vulnerable to your headshot poke once you have traps for zone control.

Synergy & Trading

  • Use headshot-enhanced auto attacks when Nilah goes for CS, then immediately step back to avoid her Q dash engage.
  • Coordinate with Lux E to slow Nilah's retreat and follow up with Q for extended poke damage.

Wave Control/Roaming

  • Push early levels to get level 2 first and place traps defensively, then maintain a slow push to build minion advantage.
  • Avoid hard shoving after level 3 as Nautilus hook threat becomes too dangerous without proper trap coverage.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Never use your E aggressively for poke as Nautilus can immediately follow up with Q-R combo for a guaranteed kill.
  • Always keep your net available as an escape tool since you have no other mobility options.
