Conversely, by aligning Ahri and Nocturne together, you may not be giving your side enough utility. We recommend you include other champions on your team that neutralizes this relative hole in their playstyle.

Regardless of the ability of your Nocturne teammate, you should focus on maximizing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
