Tahm Kench vs Nautilus

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Use brush control to deny Nautilus's hook angle and protect your ADC's approach.
Prioritize short trades to build passive stacks and enable (Q) stun for pick threat.
Maintain river vision to track Nautilus's roam timer and secure dragon setup.

Trading pattern

Engage only when (Q) is stacked for stun and your ADC can immediately follow up.
Hold (R) to (R) key targets or peel after Nautilus commits (Q) or (R).
Punish missed (Q) by crashing wave and denying his brush control for ADC safety.

Danger windows

Respect (Q) hook range and passive root when your ADC steps up near brush.
Avoid extended trades when (R) is available; it guarantees lockdown and ADC burst.
Beware of Nautilus controlling brush and fog, enabling surprise engages that expose your ADC.

Early game

Win level 2 by syncing (Q) and passive stacks with your ADC's follow-up.
Deny Nautilus brush control early to limit his engage angles and reduce ADC vulnerability.
Coordinate wave crash timing with your ADC before considering safe roams or vision resets.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) unlocks (R) pick or protection; use it to isolate or save allies decisively.
First tank item boosts (E) durability; take short trades to convert stacks into lane control.
Level 2 threat rises with (Q) stun potential; contest wave only if ADC can follow engage.

Win conditions

Convert brush denial and (Q) stun threat into ADC access and denied enemy positioning.
Use (R) to isolate high-value targets or peel for your ADC during dragon and teamfights.
Secure river vision and coordinate with your ADC to punish Nautilus's missed engages or roams.
