How to win lane as Milio against Nautilus · 49.93% win rate over 7,614 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Milio | You win level 1 as your Q knockback plus ADC auto out-trades his hook-shield setup. |
| Level 2 | Milio | At level 2 your two-spell burst lands before Nautilus has both Q and W online. |
| Level 3 | Milio | Level 3 stays yours since a missed Dredge Line leaves him with no reliable engage. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 read even as his W-shield poke and auto-roots trade against your shields. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 is skill: his point-and-click R is offset by your cleanse and hook-dodging. |
| First item | Even / skill | First item is even once your Warmth heals top through his engage and passive roots. |
| Two+ items | Milio | At 2+ items you win: global cleanse, heals, and W zone let your carry out-scale his one hook. |
Levels 1-3 are yours: you out-trade Nautilus in the 2v2 because your Q-plus-ADC burst beats his slower hook-and-shield setup, and a missed Dredge Line leaves him with no engage. Stand behind minions so his Q can't pull you, and ward the tri-bush to see his flank hook attempts.
