How to Use Nautilus Counter Data
This page tracks every meaningful Nautilus counter in League of Legends for the SUPPORT role, built from real ranked matchup statistics rather than opinion. The toughest lane opponents at the moment are Rell, Shen, Galio: against them Nautilus posts its lowest win rates in the current data set. The single strongest counter is Rell, where Nautilus wins just 44.7% of 3,160 recorded games. On the flip side, Nautilus performs well into Mel, Yuumi, Zoe, making them safer picks to face.
Each card shows the win rate from Nautilus’s perspective and the number of games behind it — a matchup with tens of thousands of games is far more trustworthy than one with a few hundred. The Easy/Even/Hard labels are computed from those win rates (below 48% reads as Hard, above 52% as Easy); they are a reading aid, not a separate source stat. Data comes from ranked games at Emerald rank and above across all regions, currently on patch 16.13.1, and refreshes automatically every 48 hours, so the numbers move with the meta. Counters are only half the picture: check the current Nautilus build for the strongest items and runes, or the Nautilus champion page for abilities and full details.
