Guide to Synergizing Nautilus and Lee Sin

Tips for Playing as Nautilus with Lee Sin

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.

Advice to Understand How Lee Sin Will Play

Take advantage of Flurry by weaving in basic attacks between spell casts - this maximizes damage output and minimizes Energy loss.

Self-casting Safeguard and using Iron Will are powerful tools for killing neutral monsters (in the jungle).

Use Sonic Wave before Dragon's Rage so you can chase the target with Resonating Strike.

Is Nautilus better when played alongside Lee Sin?

There is no top synergy for Nautilus that will no matter what be his ideal ally. Yet, Lee Sin is a terrible ally for Nautilus. By being on the same side as Nautilus, he decreases their win rate by -3.1% to 45.7%. This demonstrates that there is a very bad bond between Nautilus and Lee Sin that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Lee Sin has a lower difficulty than Nautilus. That means you don't need to be cautious when arranging Lee Sin comrades to fight alongside, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.

Fighting alongside, you should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to destroy wih physical damage. Together, these champs can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

Conversely, by aligning Nautilus and Lee Sin together, you probably will not be granting your other allies a great deal of magical damage output. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that fills this gap in this pairing's kit.

Regardless of your Lee Sin ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well anyway.
