Scuttle Contest

  • You win early scuttle fights due to your Q sustain and W stun setup, while Nocturne relies on landing Q for damage and has no hard CC at level 3.
  • From level 6, you win 1v1s if you dodge his Q with your W mist form or use minions/jungle monsters to block the initial Q damage.

Predicted Jungle Path

  • Nocturne will likely start bot side for leash into full clear toward top, looking to hit level 6 around 6:15 for his first R gank.
  • He prioritizes farming over early skirmishes and will avoid river fights until he has his ultimate advantage.

Invade or Not

  • Yes, invade his top side jungle around 6:30-7:00 when he's likely ganking bot lane with R, targeting his krugs or gromp.
  • You can also invade his starting buff at level 2 if you path efficiently, as he's weaker in extended trades without his full clear.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't fight him in open areas where his Q gives him the speed boost and damage amplification for extended trades.
  • Avoid face-checking bushes after level 6 since his R can set up easy ganks, and don't waste your W defensively when his Q is up as you'll lose the trade.
