Yuumi vs Nautilus Counter Pick

With 3,212 games logged on patch 16.13.1, this result rests on unusually firm evidence, and it is not a kind one: 42.1%. Nautilus arrives with 646 health and 39 armor at level 1, climbing to 123.2 armor by level 18, and his damage profile is mixed rather than pure magic. Staggering Blow deals increased physical damage and roots on his first attack against a target, while Riptide and Titan’s Wrath arrive as magic.

The difficulty for Yuumi is that every one of his tools is a hard stop. Dredge Line pulls, Depth Charge knocks up and travels across the map to find its target, and the passive root triggers without any cooldown investment at all. She has 500 health, 25 armor and 25 magic resistance to work with, so no plan can involve absorbing anything. You and Me! keeps her untargetable while her ally survives, which makes her carry’s positioning the entire fight, and Zoomies is better spent on approach angles than on escapes. Nautilus moves at 325 against her 330, the one number in her favour, and his difficulty rating of 6 leaves room for missed anchors. He also carries 61 attack damage at level 1 against her 49 and attacks from 175 range against her 425, so the early game reduces to whether she is ever within reach when Dredge Line comes up. His stat progression is laid out on the Nautilus entry.
