Who Wins

  • Pre-6: You win trades with Q poke and can reflect Nilah's engage attempts with W timing.
  • Post-6: You lose all-ins if Nilah gets on top of you, but can win through poke and kiting with your range advantage.

Synergy & Trading

  • Use Q to poke when Nilah goes for CS, then immediately position behind minions to avoid her E engage.
  • Save W for when she commits with E, reflecting her damage back while gaining movement speed to kite.

Wave Control/Roaming

  • Maintain slow pushes to keep minion waves between you and Nilah while poking with Q.
  • Reset waves before they crash to prevent Nilah from freezing and running you down in long lane.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't waste W on random poke - save it specifically for Nilah's E engage or you'll die to her all-in.
  • Never use E aggressively without vision of their jungler, as you have no escape once it's down.
