How to Beat Morgana as Nautilus (Support)

Despite the slight difference in effectiveness, in the Nautilus versus Morgana matchup as support, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

The magic damage that Nautilus deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Morgana deals primarily magic damage (85.28%), additional magic resistance may be required.

    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 Morgana

    • Tormented Shadow deals tons of damage to units missing large amounts of Health. When low on Health, be wary of Morgana's attempts to trap you within its reach.
    • Morgana often needs to land Dark Binding to setup her other attacks. Use your minions as shields against Dark Binding.
    • Black Shield makes Morgana immune to disabling effects, but can be broken with magic damage.
