Who Wins

  • You win level 2 all-ins with Q-passive-ignite combo as your engage is stronger than Lux's disengage, but you lose level 6 unless you can land hook on the backline carries.
  • Your engage becomes riskier post-6 due to Lux R and Caitlyn trap zone control.

Synergy & Trading

  • Lead with Q on the closer target (usually Caitlyn), then use passive and E to lock them down while Nilah follows up with Q dash.
  • Save your R for when enemies use escape abilities or to guarantee kills on low health targets.

Wave Control/Roaming

  • Roam mid or jungle when the wave is pushing away and Nilah is safe to farm under tower.
  • Optimal roam timings are levels 3-5 before enemy carries get their ultimates and can punish your absence.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Never hook into Caitlyn traps as they will headshot you and give the enemy team free damage and positioning.
  • Always clear trap zones with your body or abilities before attempting engages.
