How to win lane as Nilah against Ashe · 53.4% win rate over 1,472 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Ashe | Ashe wins level 1-2: Frost Shot slow plus Volley poke beats your slow melee start. |
| Level 2 | Ashe | At level 2 her W-slow still kites your single dash, keeping the lane hers. |
| Level 3 | Ashe | Level 3-5 she has full Volley uptime to kite your two dashes, so she stays ahead. |
| Levels 4-5 | Ashe | Levels 4-5 remain Ashe's as her permaslow and support peel deny your all-in. |
| Level 6 | Nilah | Level 6 Apotheosis pulls and roots her, killing the kite she depends on — your favour. |
| First item | Nilah | Your first item's whip-splash and doubled healing win the extended trade for you. |
| Two+ items | Nilah | With 2+ items your sustain and dodge-shield outscale her single ult threat. |
Levels 1-2 go to Ashe: her Frost Shot slows every auto and W-Volley pokes you at range while you're stuck in melee with no way to close, so just farm safe and give up CS rather than eat free harass.
