Overall, Lux sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Nautilus. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN.

This change may demonstrate that Nautilus provides protection for her to deal more damage or that his presence on the team also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Lux is played alongside Nautilus on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays without Nautilus. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Nautilus.
Additionally, when Lux plays with Nautilus on the same side, she often takes a little less damage than when she plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could mean that Nautilus does a decent job of protecting Lux in teamfights.

Is Lux better when played alongside Nautilus?
There is no universally accepted best champion pairing for Lux that will no matter what be her top synergy. However, Nautilus is a very typical teammate for Lux. By locking into the same team as Lux, he raises their win rate by 0.4% to 50.2%. This demonstrates that there is not really a strong strategic relationship between Lux and Nautilus that results in them performing better together than without each other.
Nautilus has a greater difficulty than Lux. That means Lux players need to be careful when enlisting Nautilus comrades to fight alongside, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to cooperate well with you.
When playing together, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magic damage. Combined, these champions are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.
In contrast, by aligning Lux and Nautilus together, you will not be granting your other teammates much anti-tank damage dealing potential. Plan to have other champions on your team that offsets this hole in their playstyle.
Regardless of your Nautilus ally's ability, you should focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
