Who Wins
- You lose level 2 because your Q alone cannot match Nautilus Q-passive-ignite burst potential, but you win level 6 with your R burst combo if you land Q first.
- Your range advantage becomes more pronounced at level 6 when you can threaten lethal damage from safety.
Synergy & Trading
- Lead trades with E to slow and reveal Nilah's position, then follow with Q when she's slowed and predictable.
- Save your W for after Nautilus engages to shield both you and your ADC from the follow-up damage.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Roam mid at level 6 when you have R available and the wave is pushing away from you.
- Look for roam timings when Nilah is low and forced to recall, giving you a 30-second window to impact other lanes.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never waste your Q on minions for waveclear as it's your only disengage tool against Nautilus hook.
- Missing Q against an engage support like Nautilus typically results in death due to your immobility.
