  • Both champions' overall Support win rates predict 49.2% for Nautilus; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Neither side reliably wins the lane: the average gold difference at 15 minutes is 55, within the margin of error (236 games).
  • Nautilus players pick Flash + Ignite far more often against Soraka: 55.7% of their other Support games, 73.8% here.
How we calculate this

Games: ranked Solo/Duo and Flex games on the North America server from the patch shown. Remakes (games under 5 minutes) are excluded.

A game only counts when Nautilus and Soraka played the same position on opposite teams, so roaming, lane swaps within a team or a champion merely being in the same game never count as this matchup.

The 95% range is a Wilson score interval. Confidence comes from how wide that range is: within ±3 points is very high, ±5 high, ±8 moderate, anything wider low. Below 20 games a matchup is not classified at all.

Expected win rate combines both champions’ win rates in this lane (same games and filters) with the log5 formula: E = A(1−B) / (A(1−B) + B(1−A)). Matchup effect = observed − expected.

"What changes" compares Nautilus's choices in this matchup with the same champion's other games in the same lane, and lists a change only when it is at least 3 points and statistically significant (two-proportion z-test, |z| ≥ 2, 20+ games).

Results are not split by rank: the sample per rank is too small for honest per-rank matchup numbers.

Best Nautilus Build vs Soraka

Usual Nautilus build (Support)

59.7% win rate · 544 games

Against Soraka

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 11 of 52 Nautilus games against Soraka carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Nautilus's standard build instead.

  • Nautilus usually completes Locket of the Iron Solari first, at 13.8 min (median of 173 games).
  • Soraka usually completes Moonstone Renewer first, at 13.2 min (median of 195 games).
  • Skill priority: Q > W > E — the same as usual.

Builds are ranked by the lower edge of their win rate range, not the raw win rate, so a build seen in a handful of wins never outranks a proven one.
