Guide to Synergizing Annie and Nautilus

Tips for Playing as Annie with Nautilus

Molten Shield is a good spell to cast to work up to Annie's stun, so sometimes it's beneficial to grab at least 1 rank in it early.

Striking killing blows on minions with Disintegrate enables Annie to farm extremely well early in the game.

Storing a stun for use with her ultimate can turn the tide of a team fight.

Advice to Understand How Nautilus Will Play

While ganking, consider aiming Dredge Line at nearby terrain and following it up with Riptide for a higher hit rate.

Riptide has a delayed blast timing on activation - you can use this while running away or when enemies are incoming to serve as a deterrent.

Is Annie better when played alongside Nautilus?

There is no top companion for Annie that will always be her #1 synergy. Yet, Nautilus is a very typical companion for Annie. By locking into the same side as Annie, he drops their win rate by -0.3% to 49.0%. This shows that there is not really a strong bond between Annie and Nautilus that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Nautilus has a lower difficulty than Annie. That means Annie players don't need to be very careful when finding Nautilus comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a lower level of skill to work well with you.

Working cooperatively, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magical damage. When paired, these champs are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

In contrast, by pairing Annie and Nautilus together, you will not be granting your other allies much anti-tank damage dealing potential. We recommend you have other champions on your team that helps cover this relative disparity in their abilities.

Regardless of your Nautilus ally's skill level, you should focus on increasing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well, regardless.
