Nautilus vs Wukong Matchup Summary

The Nautilus vs Wukong matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 8 recent matches analyzed, Nautilus wins with a 75.0% win rate compared to Wukong's 25.0%, giving Nautilus a 50.0 percentage point advantage. Nautilus dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Wukong players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Nautilus leads by 2.3s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Nautilus players can confidently pick into Wukong and play aggressively from level 1. Look to establish lane dominance early through favorable trades and zone Wukong away from CS whenever possible. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Farming
1.1Nautilus
2.7Wukong
Wukong significantly out-farms Nautilus by 1.6 CS per minute, accumulating an estimated 23 CS lead by mid game.

Damage
477Nautilus
831Wukong
Wukong heavily out-damages Nautilus by 354 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Nautilus should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Wukong's sustained damage advantage take over.
Economy
10,394Nautilus
12,325Wukong
Wukong generates a commanding 1,930 more gold per game than Nautilus. This substantial economic advantage means Wukong consistently reaches key item breakpoints earlier, creating a compounding lead that grows throughout the game. Nautilus should focus on cost-effective item choices and avoid unnecessary deaths to prevent falling further behind.
Utility
2.7Nautilus
0.4Wukong
Nautilus brings significantly more crowd control than Wukong, with 2.3 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Nautilus far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights. Wukong should invest in tenacity and position carefully to avoid being chain-CC'd.
Sustain
1,738Nautilus
634Wukong
Nautilus vastly out-sustains Wukong, healing and mitigating 1,104 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Nautilus can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Wukong is forced to recall. Building grievous wounds early is essential for Wukong, and focusing on burst trade patterns rather than sustained fights is critical.
