More Gameplay Tips for Nautilus Players

Tips and Tricks

Activate Titan's Wrath before a teamfight or engage to maximize damage and tankiness.

Titan's Wrath shield strength scales with bonus health, so stack up on health items.

Use Depth Charge on the enemy's back line, because it will go through enemy champions and knock them up until it hits the target.
