Pro Tips:

  1. Hold your Q (Dredge Line) until enemies misposition or use their escape abilities. Missing Q leaves you vulnerable to counterattacks.

  2. Use Q to catch out enemies who overextend during tower sieges. This can create advantageous teamfights or protect objectives.

  3. Despite Nautilus's slow movement speed, utilize his strong CC kit for effective roaming opportunities after recalls.

Combine these strategies with proper timing and positioning to maximize Nautilus's impact as a support champion. Focus on creating opportunities for your team through strategic engage and peel potential.

Remember to adjust your playstyle based on matchups and team composition, particularly when facing hard counters like Taric or when paired with strong synergy partners like Swain.
