Read from Nautilus's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Camille.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Nautilus | At level 1 you're roughly even, but your passive Staggering Blow root makes auto-trades favor you — punish her if she steps up to last-hit before she has E. |
| Level 2 | Camille | Tactical Sweep comes online and its outer half both hits harder and heals her, so her poke-and-heal out-trades you before your level-3 combo. |
| Level 3 | Camille | Her full Q-W-E combo is up — one E hookshot stun into her cone and Q proc out-trades you in melee while your Q pull is your only answer. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | She owns the hard-commit window: Hookshot off any wall into Precision Protocol's true damage and the Tactical Sweep heal beats you outright. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Even at 6 — Depth Charge beats her Hookshot escape, but a Camille diving in on The Hextech Ultimatum is untargetable through it, so never fire into that. |
| First item | Even / skill | Genuinely even: her Sheen/Trinity spike out-sustains your tank damage, but your CC chain still threatens a kill if you catch her flat. |
| Two+ items | Camille | You reclaim relevance in teamfights — your passive root into Q pull into R knock-up into E slow chain-locks her carry where her R isolation can't save her. |
Level 1 is roughly even — I have no all-in without W and E yet — but my passive Staggering Blow root makes auto-trades favor me, so punish her if she walks up to last-hit. The moment I hit level 3 with Q + W + E I own this lane: Dredge Line yanks her in, my passive roots her, and Titan's Wrath splash plus the burn wins the short trade while she's still kiting. The thing to respect is Hookshot — it has to grab a wall to launch and is down 16 seconds, so hold the middle of the lane and land my Q pull on MY terms. Bait her E first, then commit.
