Taken from the in-game loadout screen as of 2026-08-29. The pick count and win rate are shown exactly as the game reports them. Runes are read by matching the icons; slots we could not read are left as "?".
These builds are from before patch 7.3 (2026-09-21).
Shorten the cooldown of your key engage skill first, then level the skill that increases your shield strength.
Engage with the Skill 1 hook to take control of the lane. After the hook lands, follow with the passive auto-attack root. Hold them long enough for your ally to take the kill.
Finish your boots early and roam to mid or the jungle to create numbers advantages. Stand at the front when taking vision before Dragon or Herald. Use your body to protect the team.
Avoid moving alone and act as the shield of your team's formation. Point Ult at the enemy's most fed carry. Have the whole team focus them down.
Decide whether to engage with your CC chain or stay back and peel for your carries. If there is an opening, start the fight with the hook. Pop your shield and soak the enemy's attacks.
Landing Skill 1 (hook) on the enemy tank at the front of a teamfight is a big mistake. You pull yourself into their CC and leave your backline exposed. Aim the hook at squishy carries. If you cannot reach them, use your level 5 Ult on their backline and focus on peeling.
Hook with Skill 1 and root with the passive auto. Add damage and a shield with Skill 2 and Skill 3.
Open with the unavoidable Ult, then chain CC until they go down.

A three-step guide set by the official champion library. For difficulty, a higher number means harder to play.
Critical damage is 200% for every champion. These figures exclude items and runes.
Our take
Base value rises 5 at every rank and the max-health ratio gains 2 points. At 3,000 health the rank 4 shield goes from 455 to 520.
It scales with health, so the more Nautilus builds like a tank the bigger the gap.
Our take
This is aimed squarely at Nautilus in the jungle. Both abilities are brought down to the same 125% against monsters, which visibly slows his early clear. Titan's Wrath also loses 4% max HP on its shield, so tanking camps while he clears is harder too. Compared with running him in support or baron lane, the case for putting him in the jungle is now much thinner.
