Guide to Synergizing Kayle and Nocturne

Tips for Playing as Kayle with Nocturne

Kayle benefits greatly from Attack Damage and Ability Power, making hybrid items like Nashor's Tooth and Hextech Gunblade very effective on her.

Using Divine Judgment on a high-DPS ally can turn the tides of battle by giving your ally free reign to attack.

Kayle's attacks become incredibly powerful once she gains attack range from Divine Ascent. Play safe until then.

Advice to Understand How Nocturne Will Play

Use Shroud of Darkness in tandem with Paranoia's dash. Your opponents may panic and waste a critical disable on your spell shield.

Using Paranoia at a critical moment is well worth it even if you cannot use the dash.

Duskbringer isn't only an offensive ability. It can be used to close distance out of combat or escape from certain death.
