Guide to Synergizing Nautilus and Nidalee

Tips for Playing as Nautilus with Nidalee

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.

Advice to Understand How Nidalee Will Play

Use brush to your advantage! Moving in and out of brush can heavily alter your effectiveness in battle.

Start team fights by harassing with your Javelin Toss, and then switch to cougar form to chase down Hunted targets.

Bushwhack traps deal damage based on their victim's current Health. Set them up in your team's backline before fights break out during sieges to help your team deal damage to the enemy frontline.

Nidalee has a greater difficulty than Nautilus. That means Nautilus players need to be very careful when enlisting Nidalee teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a greater level of skill to be able to fight well with you.
