Farming
1.9Nocturne

Damage
726Nocturne

5.6Nocturne
0.7Sett
Nocturne brings significantly more crowd control than Sett, with 4.8 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Nocturne far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights.

Sustain
1,481Nocturne
