Nautilus dominates as a tanky support with crowd control and peel. His 50.4% win rate in Patch 16.3 proves his reliability in ranked play. Master his abilities to disrupt enemies and secure objectives.

How to play Nautilus?

Nautilus thrives in the early game by using his Dredge Line (Q) to engage or peel. Start with agressive trades in lane to bully squishy enemies, leveraging your long-range hook for picks. In the mid-game, focus on vision control and securing objectives like Dragon or Baron with your team. Late-game, your role shifts to frontline disruption, using your ultimate (Depth Charge) to chain enemies together and create space for your carries. Positioning is key—stay near your ADC to protect them while using your crowd control to peel for your team.
