Her W blocks auto-attacks and enhanced auto-attack abilities, including abilities like Twisted Fate's W. The Passive helps gain XP advantages over enemy laners, enabling earlier power spikes.

Nilah's E provides 2 dashes, perfect for quick engagement and disengagement in skirmishes. However, when E is on cooldown, she becomes vulnerable to lockdown and can't play aggressively.

For maximum Ultimate effectiveness, team coordination is crucial. Like most champions, falling behind significantly impacts her performance.

Early Game Strategy:

• Focus on short trades using auto-attacks
• Avoid extended trades unless enemy abilities are on cooldown
• Play conservatively in early levels
• Wait for level power spikes before engaging

Mid Game Approach:

• Rotate to mid after taking bottom tower
• Avoid constant ADC positioning
• Stay away from CC-heavy champions
• Use Ultimate opportunistically with team support
• Farm side lanes efficiently while staying near team

Late Game Tactics:

• Utilize Ultimate frequently due to short cooldown
• Maintain mobile positioning in team fights
• Stay with Support
• Avoid solo map movements

Power Spikes:

• Level 3: Access to all basic abilities
• First item completion: Enhanced trading power
• Level 6: Ultimate unlock
• Level 9: First ability maximized
• Level 11: Second Ultimate point
• Level 16: Final Ultimate point
• Late game: Multiple item completion

Team Fight Strength:

• Excellent mid-game team fight potential
• Strong late-game scaling
• High damage output with completed items
• Requires careful positioning and team coordination

Nilah excels in coordinated team play and scales well into late game, but requires careful management of abilities and positioning to maximize effectiveness.
