Who Wins

Pre-6, you lose the lane because Ashe's constant slows from her W passive and Q make it nearly impossible to land your E hook reliably, and Rell's magnetic field disrupts your positioning for Q pulls — Rell's level 2 all-in with Ashe's slow is particularly punishing since you cannot escape or engage cleanly.
Post-6, you can win if you land your R on a low-health target, but Ashe's R from range can interrupt your setup and Rell's R counters your dive pattern.

Your best trading pattern is to use your W invisibility to reposition behind or beside Rell, then hook her into Nilah rather than hooking Ashe — Rell is the engage threat and removing her from the fight lets Nilah freely chase Ashe who has no escape.

You should roam when the wave is pushed to Ashe and Rell's tower and both are occupied farming — your R's gold-sharing mechanic makes mid roams extremely high value, and a successful mid kill gives Nilah solo XP to accelerate her level advantage.
Avoid roaming when the wave is slow-pushing toward your tower, as Nilah will be left in a 1v2 she cannot survive.

Do not use your Q pull as your primary engage tool into this lane — Ashe's slow will reduce your movement speed during the dash animation window and Rell can interrupt your pull with her own CC, leaving you overextended with no follow-up from Nilah who cannot close the gap in time.
