Guide to Synergizing Irelia and Nautilus

Tips for Playing as Irelia with Nautilus

Defiant Dance is not interrupted by crowd control, try timing it for incoming disables.

Flawless Duet does not have a maximum travel distance, try using it in creative ways.

Use Bladesurge to cover great distances by targeting low life minions on your way to champion targets.

Advice to Understand How Nautilus Will Play

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.

In contrast, by bringing Irelia and Nautilus together, you will not be granting your other teammates very much tankyness. We recommend you include other champions on your team that offsets this relative disparity in their kit.
