Nautilus is the NEW Top Lane Meta

[@SebTheSamMarten]

2:20 You missed the cannon because for some reason your own cannon turned around and shot it a single time just before the turret shot hit, despite having been aggro'd onto the mage minion behind it for the entire time up until then. The aggro system for minions in League makes zero sense. Melee minions will randomly break formation to sprint at a mage minion that's under turret and screw up your ability to last hit it very, very frequently. It happens the most in top lane as well, where there are champs that are commonly played that do not have enough in their kit early game to deal with a lopsided melee minion health bar and will miss every single one of them that isn't lined up perfectly. I wish I could understand the decision making they had, but it's impossible to make any kind of pattern out of it. :/

Finally some explanation

[@jimmyomega]

24:17 hey just so you know, the reworked swain has a slow in his ult every time he recasts it

[@bobby2dreky]

Just had a thought, with the latest rell update maybe this build will work for her as well top.

[@Wafflerush]

@@bobby2dreky guess imma have to give it a go again

[@xmafian]

30:39 I believe root only prevents dashes, not blinks, and Fiddle ult is a blink. Similar to Ezreal E, you can't root that either.

I absolutely live for your channel and probably watched almost every single one of your recent videos since I re-discovered the world of nautilus top. xd Whilst the eclipse shield bash tech seems really interesting, I can t help but yearn for Heartsteel. It s as if it s calling me. There was that one french nautilus top streamer that kept on rushing Hearsteel first (occasionally with baamis cinder item for enhanced farming when paired with E). Core item was quite literally Dorans shield and runes like second wind for sustain. When you were pondering about sundered sky, I believe that this might just be not tanky enough for my preference :C

[@EveryonesFriendGoodOldDom]

bro these fast uploads are legit, great game after Lux brain stopped lagging and became competent .

[@R4tirl]

Oh hey youre almost at 1k subs, when you hit 1k can you do full ap nautilus please ?

@ i am proud of you

[@Wafflerush]

@dyno9415 thanks dad

[@sandnotinactive7259]

how do you deal with ranged toplaners with nautilus? Pure top laners like Gnar or Quinn. Great gameplay as always though!!

[@Wafflerush]

@sandnotinactive7259 thanks man! You just kinda have to out-bully them. Walk up to engage rather than hook, bc they will use their disengage to gain ground and that's when you hook.

hitboxes become weirder every season stg

[@linuxgamingpc9907]

Do you think it could be viable to go Manaflow + haste since it would be an alternaative to the mana sustain/haste of your runes?

[@Wafflerush]

@linuxgamingpc9907 Manaflow + Transcence works, but the total haste you get from precision tree and with PoM is better in my opinion. Getting a burst of mana when you get a takedown, especially at lower levels, is extremely helpful when you are oom after fighting off a 2v1 gank.

[@TheJammyTart]

Are the items/builds that you're running most games the best for naut top? Or are there other builds than can be viable as well?

[@Wafflerush]

@@TheJammyTart you can use my build for Top, JG, and Mid. As a baseline, you NEED to get Rod and Eclipse. Other than that, everything else you get is situational.

[@TheJammyTart]

@@Wafflerush Nice. Thank you for clarifying. I'll be sure to run those items as a necessity - watching people's reaction to the 'bonk' is priceless.

[@dawidturowski7217]

I like Nautilus main but you are only because one main VannilPlay dont recording video in this moment 💪 greatings from Poland.

Hooker giving off bronze vibes. Well, it's something new.

[@Carsa-is6vb]

My man, I'll give an unrequested but needed advice. Help yourself by clickbaiting a bit in the thumbnail and title. I'm an old school top laner, to me peak top lane is something like Maokai vs Malphite, so ofc I love seeing Nautilus top, but whenever i see your thumbnail I think "Great, another ROA, Eclipse, Sundered, Grasp Naut. Whatever". Put a screenshot from the game with some editing, take my attention and then satisfy my curiosity. Make me think I meed to see this. You won against Ambessa? Just title it "Ambessa easiest counter" and then a screenshot of "Nautilus is on a killing spree". Who cares if it's misleading, but your thumbnail game need to level up, man.

[@Wafflerush]

But me no like misleading :( I wanna make it low on the click-bait side. I hate clickbait stuff. It just infuriates me.
