Summoner Spells Back to Top

If you choose to play Nautilus as a toplaner take Teleport and Flash for better Teamplay and deffending Turrets or other objectives. Since you are Toplane and not jungle or botlane you will be ahead in level to the enemy jungler. That means you can countergank botlane with a teleport botlane. the perfect situation is when you already got level 6 and the jungler is still 4/5.

Before i start explaning, this is just an opinion and you can vary with the masteries. Key Masterie should always be grasp of the undying!



Resolve:
For a more tanky version take Unyielding. Only Bonus armor and magic resist! So that means defense from items, masteries and runes.
If you think you will roam a lot to midlane take Explorer instead of Tough Skin.

Choose Runic Armor, for example (calculated with basestats): 

nautiluspiercinggaze.png Level 5: 85 + 17 % of max HP(3000HP): 85 + 510 + 8% from Runic Armor ~ 643

If you hit 4k HP and you will hit it with this build you drain more than 120 HP with grasp of the undying!

Back to Champion List

VS

Aatrox

Medium

Easy to lane against, hard to kill just go grab you farm, get tanky and take the advantage from ganks and teamfights.

VS

Cho'Gath

Medium

Dont rush 3512.png too fast. Last hits will give him HP and his sustain is much better than yours.

VS

Darius

Easy

Get 3068.png and 3742.png you should be fine.

When he hooks you your nautilusanchordrag.png at the same time and you wont be pulled.

VS

Dr. Mundo

Medium

Easy to face. More like a brolane, no one should get kills, call you jungler pre 6

VS

Gangplank

Easy

He will poke you, that means he wont get much Coins for his passive. Grab some armor and maybe the 3211.png for sustain.

VS

Malphite

Easy

You deal kinda hybrid damage to him, take care of your mana and you will win the trades.

VS

Maokai

Medium

Its hard against sustain, dont waste too much mana.

VS

Nasus

Hard

If he gets some magic resist and health you wont be able to do much.

VS

Olaf

Hard

Dont know what to say, warlord's bloodlust olaf is waaaaay too strong.

VS

Poppy

Hard

Take care, there is a reason why poppy is always banned.

VS

Renekton

Medium

LIFE AND ARMOR! he can make some plays with you zz rod minions!

VS

Vladimir

Medium

get magic resist and no early ZZ! he can drain them.

Laning Phase Back to Top

First of all some champs can also hook you like Blitzcrank rocketgrab.png or Darius dariusaxegrabcone.png, if you use you Q wisely you will reach your destination. You can check it here at 20 seconds!



Try not to getting pushed under the turret, use your shield too keep the minions out of tower range. Later on sunfire and E will kill them pretty fast. Use your 3512.png not against all enemies especially not 75.png, 31.png, 8.png.
they will get sustain or in nasus case much damage!

About me Back to Top

My name is runystar, i play league since the beginning, short time after league got the name changed from clash of fates to simple "league of legends".


The current season (season 6) is one of the best i guess, i used to play support and thought i am not able to sololane some while ago. i changed my attitude and now i also moved to top and jungle. with the current items and masteries you get so many options to play your champion - whoever that is.
