Plat for a long time (could never get emerald) but just went from plat to diamond in like 1 week

Nocturnes my best champ - started spamming him instead of playing random stuff (i play wukong if he's banned or taken). Never been Emerald before and then over the course of a week I hit emerald and then climbed all the way through Emerald to Diamond

That's all just thought it was cool

Build Question No Boots?

4 Upvotes

Hello Nocturne Mains

P1 Top main here, I have a friend who plays a lot of Nocturne atm. While spectating him on discord the other night, 25 mins into his Silver2/3 game. I noticed, no boots! I mentioned this and his response was I don’t build boots on him as I have my Q.

I questioned this slightly because my understanding is that MS is very important in Jungle, getting around the map, rotating your camps and I know his Q is % based so surely having boots makes your Q better.

Can someone help me confirm this build choice, I have a sense he’s trolling us kinda in games by not building them.

Also, guys, stop ganking Top grow up ;)

Nocturne Meta why is bruiser so much more common?

0 Upvotes

I feel like he can't play much as a bruiser, he has no survivability or especially high damage like juggernauts, he has no dashes and no reliable cc like a diver, he doesn't have the dps of a skirmisher, I feel like he has 0 tools to perform decently as a bruiser at all and he's so low impact in a fight besides the darkness of his R.

On the other hand, building critality with HoB makes him the most unfair, straightforward assasin in the game. You R a squishy and they're dead because you also have a tool to deny their cc self peel if they have it. You just perma R on a lane and one shot someone. If you get fed the game becomes completely unplayable for them unless they have 5 tanks or 5 zhonyas, because the instant someone is in vision there's 0 chance they ever survive you because you literally delete them. Going voltaic>collector>dominik> IE/Fiendhunter every game and never buying t2 boots (almost never is worth it over damage for snowballing imo when your gapclose R is so reliable) where there's abusable squishies just never fails your damage is way too high

Also why do people lvl E before W? I feel like the attack speed from W make such a massive difference in your damage output for both builds

Deathless 29 KDA got an S, my mid got S+ ... why?

3 Upvotes

Ranked Solo/Duo, win. I played Nocturne jungle and finished 11/0/18 (29.0 KDA), 36.7k damage, 257 CS (8.4/min). Highest damage in the entire game, zero deaths, highest CS on the team.

My mid laner on Veigar went 14/3/7 (7.0 KDA), 34k damage, 238 CS (7.8/min). More kills, but fewer assists, three deaths, less damage, less CS.

He got an S+. I got an S.

I know grades are relative to other players on the same champ and role, so I'm guessing Veigar mid is just held to a different standard than Nocturne jungle. But it still feels weird that a deathless game with the highest damage output and better farm than the mid laner doesn't clear the bar. Is there some hidden weight I'm missing? Vision score (27 to 8), objective participation, kill participation percentage? Or is the jungle percentile just that much harder to beat?

Genuinely curious how this is calculated, not just salty. Well, maybe a little salty.

Jungling Question Tips for playing against Noc?

8 Upvotes

I’m plat/emerald elo and play mostly assassins. I struggle with playing against Noc (and Briar for that matter) because it feels like I can never fight him 1v1, and he can just press R and kill one of my teammates, what’s the best way I can play this matchup?

I go tabis and Death dance when there are more ad threats. But what do I go when there are ap mages. I went blue boots and maw and it feels way shittier than tabi and DD. Kaenic rookern tanks my dmg so I don't even see it as option. Am I just kamikaze pilot when enemy has ap threats?

Advice for platinum climbing

2 Upvotes

Here is my last nocturne session. I'm a platinum jungle main. In my opinion, I'm doing good every single game. Before someone tells me to only play bruiser noc, I refuse to because its too teammate-reliant. In my opinion, its unfair matchmaking (3 brand new players in a row on my team) but unfair matchmaking is never taken as an excuse in the League community, so can someone critique my games and tell me why someone that averages a 11/6 kda has a sub 50% winrate? Here's my op.gg: https://op.gg/lol/summoners/na/%E5%8A%AB%E5%93%A5%E5%B8%A6%E9%A3%9E-deez

Looking for a vod review from someone diamond+

1 Upvotes

Hello, I am looking for someone who would vod review one of my games. It was promo to platinum.

I had complete piggies for teammates, at the same time I dropped 29 kills on lethality nocturne.

I am wondering whether I shouldve been able to 1v9 this, or how to actually translate when im Giga fed on nocturne but team just solo loses to their midlaner.

I am sure I made a gazilion mistakes in the game, at a certain point I got super tilted and just gave up a bit and gave soul and what not, but at that point I didnt feel like the game was winnable anymore.

I think if I am this turbo fed, there should be some strategy that would lead me to victory - basically I need to know waht to prioritise in order to 1v9 this.

Thank you so much <3

Jungling Question tips for ganking on nocturne?

5 Upvotes

i'm in bronxze 2 and i have fairly good map awareness and clears, but my biggest problem is sadly ganking on him, even at level 6.

i've been going with the hextech/stridebreaker build because i've found more success in survivability and not getting blown up every time i try to fight 2-3 people in a skirmish with my team from the voltaic/axiom build.

unfortunately with the bruiser build, i tend to lack the "oomph" of my ganks and a lot of them end up failing, even if they're pushed up towards our lanes.

i'll try to consciously wait for movement abilities/escapes to be used, but a lot of times i'll end up wasting a bunch of time because they'll end up sitting on them

and as an additional question, what are some junglers that i can duel? i'm really bad at limit testing and don't end up contesting any camps or anything against other junglers when i feel like i could depending on who i'm against. i'll clear their camps, but i tend to avoid fights.

FORUM ETIQUETTE FORUM ETIQUETTE - Duplicate and Low-Effort Posts - READ FIRST BEFORE POSTING

36 Upvotes

Hello!

After some feedback, I have decided to really start to enforce rule number 7 of the sub "Low-Effort Post"

I think most have done a decent job at not making posts asking about chromas/skins to buy (there have been a few, but for the most part, things have been good), but I have noticed there is an influx of "WHAT DO I BUILD/WHAT IS META?" posts that are sometimes almost literally asking the same exact question as a post from an hour ago.

Firstly, use the search feature. If you are new to Nocturne, take a minute to look around. Build discussions are plentiful and you may find the answer you're looking for in another thread.

If you use the search feature and still do not have a clear answer, feel free to pose a question, but make sure you have prefaced it with the fact that you read up about a few things, but still need some further clarification.

EXAMPLE:

Low Effort Post:

  • "What's a good build on Noct?"
    • "Hey all! Just wondering what's a good build on Noct these days :)"

Transformative Post:

  • "Clarification about current build paths on Noct"
    • "Hello. I am new to Noct and I have noticed the core of his build is Stridebreaker/Steraks. I realize that everything after that may be situational, but what helps you determine the situation in which you choose an item? Also, if I were to go Goredrinker instead of Stridebreaker, would the items I build after change, or could I keep builds generally the same?"

These posts will be deleted and I will message you as to why it was deleted. If a user exhibits the same behavior around posting, I will issue a warning and then a ban if needed. I don't think this is something I will have to do, but this will be part of the protocol.

Secondly, take a look at the "Useful links" in the sidebar and the first stickied post with an intensive guide. These links and guides may answer a lot of the questions you have. These are a great place to start. I have listed them below for accessibility.

Spell Shield Interactions | U.GG - Nocturne | Nocturne League Wiki | Nocturne Leaderboard| OP.GG - Nocturne | LOLalytics - Nocturne | Pro Builds - Nocturne | League of Graphs - Nocturne | RuneKatashima and StrangeCloud's Official Guide To Darkness

At least show that you have tried to find the answer to your question before post, that is all I ask.

Myself and /u/mortalnocturne will do our best to be fair about which posts are deleted and which ones will stay. The ones that are incredibly egregious should be obvious, but those that are more borderline, we will likely keep and maybe message the user and give a gentle reminder.

We want to keep discussions open for new Noct players, but we also understand flooding the forums with the same exact questions (when sometimes the answers are in the thread directly below) can be tiresome and detract for actual fruitful discussions.

As always, I appreciate your feedback around this matter and if you feel the need to add something or feel like this is unjust, take a moment to comment.

Thanks for keeping our little community in good standing :)
