Statistical Matchup Analysis

Current meta showdown: Nautilus (9.3% pick rate, 4th most popular out of 53 Support champions) versus Milio (9.1%, 5th place). These two support titans clash constantly, making matchup mastery a decisive factor in your climb. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Glacial Augment + Hextech Flashtraption combination (52.0% win rate) plus optimal itemization Locket of the Iron Solari, Knight's Vow, Sunfire Aegis, and Plated Steelcaps boosts your chances from 48.3% to 70%+ - potentially game-changing.

Vision advantage: Despite losing the direct matchup, Nautilus's superior warding (0.99 wards/min, 8th among supports) can swing team fights and objectives in your favor. Damage doesn't equal wins: Nautilus outputs more damage (358 vs 208/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Complete dominance by Milio: leads in both matchup win rate (51.7%) and KDA (3.70 vs 2.40, 2nd vs 34th place). Nautilus players need exceptional preparation to overcome this counter-pick.

Nautilus tips:

  • While ganking, consider aiming Dredge Line at nearby terrain and following it up with Riptide for a higher hit rate.
  • Riptide has a delayed blast timing on activation - you can use this while running away or when enemies are incoming to serve as a deterrent.

Playing Against Milio

  • Milio's movement abilities forecast their destination. Try to use this to your advantage.
  • Champions with crowd control that can be applied quickly excel against Milio.
  • Catching Milio with no allies around severely inhibits his mobility. Try to find him alone.
