While statistically Pyke is slightly stronger than Nautilus as support, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.
Except for rare builds, Pyke deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Nautilus has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.
Consider the excellent vision control demonstrated by Nautilus, ranking 6th (versus 34th for Pyke) in ward placement among supports. This means the opponent provides better map vision for their team. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.4 versus 2.2) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Pyke player to maintain constant pressure on Nautilus, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
