Arrr, kit reference
Trick names, descriptions and numeric fields come from Riot Data Dragon. Practical reads be independently written; th' present in-battle tooltip remains authoritative.
Arrr, what it doesEnglishEvery few seconds, Nocturne's next attack strikes surrounding enemies for bonus physical damage and heals himself. Nocturne's basic attacks reduce this cooldown.
Arrr, practical readUmbra Blades be an automatic part o' th' kit involving damage. Track when its condition be active instead o' treating every fight th' same way.
Th' protection or sustain be part o' th' cast's value. Compare its timing wit' incoming damage rather than reading only th' offensive effect.
Arrr, what it doesEnglishNocturne throws a shadow blade that deals damage, leaves a Dusk Trail, and causes champions to leave a Dusk Trail. While on the trail, Nocturne can move through units and has increased Move Speed and Attack Damage.
Arrr, practical readDuskbringer be a ranged cast involving damage. Respect its line or target area, and avoid spending it when th' foe can simply step astern afore th' fit fer th' captain's eye exchange.
Arrr, what it doesEnglishNocturne empowers his blades, passively gaining Attack Speed. Activating Shroud of Darkness allows Nocturne to fade into the shadows, creating a magical barrier which blocks a single enemy ability and doubles his passive Attack Speed if successful.
Arrr, practical readShroud o' Darkness contributes basic-attack interaction. Its value changes wit' cooldown, range and target access; recognise th' setup afore moving into its effective area.
Arrr, what it doesEnglishNocturne plants a nightmare into his target's mind, dealing damage each second and applying fear to the target if they do not get out of range by the end of the duration.
Arrr, practical readUnspeakable Horror contributes hard crowd control and damage. Its value changes wit' cooldown, range and target access; recognise th' setup afore moving into its effective area.
Arrr, what it doesEnglishNocturne reduces the sight radius of all enemy champions and removes their ally vision in the process. He can then launch himself at a nearby enemy champion.
Arrr, practical readParanoia contributes vision ship's intelligence. Its value changes wit' cooldown, range and target access; recognise th' setup afore moving into its effective area.
Adapt th' course
Judge th' whole course or sea chart state, nay only personal kills. Pick th' situation closest to th' present battle.
Deny space wit' yer course partner, but keep th' carry moored to th' wave instead o' roaming at every opportunity.
Move first aboard wit' an ally, establish vision and protect th' course yer crew will use to enter.
Set sail only when crewmates can follow, then change to peel if an foe reaches th' protected carry.
Hold th' trick that makes foes respect yer course and trade when both Bot-course partners be shipshape.
Recall and move on seaworthy wave timings; an unsupported roam can cost th' carry an entire wave or a dive.
Control one approach and keep enough protection fer th' foe's most likely engage.
Stay fer a crashing wave, block a dive and avoid spending th' key defensive trick on low-value poke.
Enter darkness wit' another sailor and ward th' nearest useful entrance instead o' reaching fer deep vision.
Peel first aboard and punish overextension. A blind engage rarely repairs a losing battle.
Pings, movement and prizes
Turn ship's intelligence into a shared decision. Move wit' an ally and preserve th' tool that makes th' next aboard fight seaworthy.
Pings create a shared course; they do nay replace checking waves, vision and who can move.
'Round a minute afore Dragon, ping th' course, spend doubloons if needed and make sure Bot and Mid know whether they can move.
Walk wit' th' Jungler or another ally. Sweep one course, place useful entrance vision and ne'er face-inspect alone.
Inspect nigh th' ship waves and foe positions. Hold th' spell that either starts a reachable fight or protects yer main damage dealer.
Keep enemies astern from th' seaworthy entrance, mark th' reachable threat and avoid chasing so far across th' waters that Dragon be left unprotected.
Later prizes: Use th' same pattern fer Rift Herald or Baron: communicate first aboard, move through controlled vision wit' an ally, then choose engage or peel afore th' fight begins.
Use th' chart
Compare a specific foe, return to th' champion overview, or choose another champion without losing th' queue distinction.
