Nocturne the Eternal Nightmare

A demonic amalgamation drawn from the nightmares that haunt every sentient mind, the thing known as Nocturne has become a primordial force of pure evil. It is liquidly chaotic in aspect, a faceless shadow with cold eyes and armed with wicked-looking blades. After freeing itself from the spirit realm, Nocturne descended upon the waking world, to feed upon the kind of terror that can only thrive in true darkness.

Nocturne Tips

MetaBot Tips
  • Nocturne has less damage per game than most other damage-based champions. Your value to the team may be better oriented towards crowd control or securing objectives.
  • Nocturne has a high rate of healing compared to other champions. They may be good at exchanging hit trades in lane or before teamfights since they can recover through self-healing.
  • Nocturne has more base armor than most champions, which makes them excellent in the early game against attack damage type enemies.
  • Nocturne excells at supporting other champions, and should prioritize helping carrying type champions again kills and snowball.

Nocturne Builds

Playing Nocturne

  • Using Paranoia at a critical moment is well worth it even if you cannot use the dash.
  • Duskbringer isn't only an offensive ability. It can be used to close distance out of combat or escape from certain death.
  • Use Shroud of Darkness in tandem with Paranoia's dash. Your opponents may panic and waste a critical disable on your spell shield.

Playing Against Nocturne

  • Stay close to your allies when Paranoia is cast - there is strength in numbers!
  • Nocturne's Unspeakable Horror is broken with range, so try to save your movement abilities for when he casts it.
