Nautilus vs Yasuo Matchup Summary

The Nautilus vs Yasuo matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 5 recent matches analyzed, Yasuo wins with a 80.0% win rate compared to Nautilus's 20.0%, giving Yasuo a 60.0 percentage point advantage. Yasuo dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Nautilus 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 1.6s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Yasuo has a strong advantage in this matchup. Nautilus players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Yasuo overextending. Avoid prolonged trades and wait for team fights where positioning and coordination matter more. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Farming
3.8Nautilus
5.2Yasuo
Yasuo significantly out-farms Nautilus by 1.4 CS per minute, accumulating an estimated 20 CS lead by mid game.

Damage
614Nautilus
769Yasuo
Yasuo heavily out-damages Nautilus by 155 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 Yasuo's sustained damage advantage take over.
Economy
11,635Nautilus
13,978Yasuo
Yasuo generates a commanding 2,343 more gold per game than Nautilus. This substantial economic advantage means Yasuo consistently reaches key item breakpoints earlier, creating a compounding lead that grows throughout the game.

Utility
2.5Nautilus
0.9Yasuo
Nautilus brings significantly more crowd control than Yasuo, with 1.6 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. Yasuo should invest in tenacity and position carefully to avoid being chain-CC'd.
Sustain
2,144Nautilus
1,142Yasuo
Nautilus vastly out-sustains Yasuo, healing and mitigating 1,002 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Nautilus can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Yasuo is forced to recall.
