How to win lane as Yone against Nautilus · 50.89% win rate over 7,942 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Yone | Level 1 is yours — Nautilus has no real damage, only an auto-attack root, so your Q trades win freely. |
| Level 2 | Yone | Level 2 stays yours; you shove and poke while he has no way to punish your aggression. |
| Level 3 | Yone | Level 3 remains yours — his hook is his only tool and dodging it leaves him helpless in lane. |
| Levels 4-5 | Yone | Levels 4-5 favour you as your damage and mobility fully outclass a tank with no waveclear. |
| Level 6 | Yone | At 6 you spike — Fate Sealed kills through his low-damage Depth Charge that he can't trade back against. |
| First item | Yone | First item is yours as your DPS shreds his pure-tank build while he can only try to peel. |
| Two+ items | Yone | Late you stay ahead — you kite and cleave down a tank whose only threat is a single, dodgeable hook. |
You own levels 1-3 outright: Nautilus brings passive-root autos and a hook but no sustained damage or waveclear, so poke him with Q and shield trades with W. As long as you sidestep his Dredge Line, he cannot punish you.
