Guide to Synergizing Vayne and Nautilus

Tips for Playing as Vayne with Nautilus

Don't go in first to a large teamfight. Wait for your teammates to initiate.

Tumble has many uses, but it cannot pass over walls.

Condemn can be used to both pin targets to walls to ensure a kill, or to escape a pursuer.

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.
