Learn how to play with Nilah with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Use your heal or shield abilities on yourself while laning near Nilah — her passive returns 7.5% of the healing or 15% of the shielding to both of you, though it doesn't trigger from items, runes, or summoner spells.
Basic Lane Phase
Stay close to Nilah when she last-hits minions in lane — you both gain bonus experience equal to 50% of what's normally lost to sharing, giving your bot lane a level advantage over the enemy duo.
Basic Lane Phase
Move next to Nilah when she activates her W — touching her extends the ghosted movement, bonus movement speed, 25% reduced magic damage, and dodge against non-turret basic attacks to you for 1.5 seconds.
Team Fight Skirmish
Save your crowd control for the end of Nilah's R channel — the closing burst pulls nearby enemies 250 units toward her and applies a slow that refreshes on every tick, giving you a clean window to land follow-up CC or burst.
Team Fight
Peel for Nilah during her R channel — she can't basic attack or cast her other abilities for the full second (though she can still move), so protect her from focus fire during this window.
Advanced Team Fight
Stay within super long range of Nilah when she casts her R — nearby allies are healed based on the damage she deals to champions, with any excess healing converting into a shield.
Team Fight
Time your crowd control around Nilah's E charges — with two dashes stocked, she can engage in and dash again to follow up or disengage, so land your CC while she's closing the gap on the target.
