Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.
Except for rare builds, Aphelios deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Nilah deals mainly physical damage (95.06%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Nilah, ranking 7th (versus 22nd for Aphelios) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.2 versus 2.0) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Aphelios player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Nilah player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.
