Nocturne 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.
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.
