Who Wins

  • Pre-6: You lose extended trades due to Mel's poke and Nilah's sustain, but can win short burst trades with W engage.
  • Post-6: You still struggle in extended fights but your W save potential keeps Kai'Sa alive through their all-ins.

Synergy & Trading

  • Look for W engages when Mel uses Q on minions and is positioned aggressively, immediately following up with Q slow.
  • Use your W defensively to save Kai'Sa when Nilah commits with her E engage.

Wave Control/Roaming

  • Don't roam - this lane requires constant protection for Kai'Sa against Nilah's engage potential.
  • Your presence is the only thing preventing Nilah from diving your ADC repeatedly.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Never use W aggressively when Mel has her W available, as she can reflect your damage and gain movement speed to escape.
  • Don't try to tank Nilah's full combo without your W available to devour Kai'Sa, as she will kill your ADC through your health bar.
