Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior range and wave control, as your Q-W combo outranges Nilah's engage tools and your W provides consistent waveclear.
- Post-6 you maintain advantage since your R-Q combo can lock down Nilah before she can effectively use her R, though you must respect her all-in potential if she gets close.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern is Q into W placement, then auto attacks while backing away to maintain distance.
- Only commit to extended trades with R available, as Nilah will win most melee-range exchanges without your ultimate's lockdown.
Wave Control
- Push waves aggressively with W to maintain range advantage and prevent Nilah from freezing near her tower.
- Keep the wave in the center or slightly pushed to have space to land Q without being in her engage range.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never let Nilah get into melee range without your Q or R available, as her W negates your damage and her sustained damage will overwhelm you.
- Avoid using Q predictably when she has minions to dash through, as missing it gives her a free engage window.
