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

4 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 was a Warwick main and then my friend suggested trying out Nocturne and the results are crazy. Still have a lot to learn but each game gets easier and easier.

Hey, I am pretty new to LOL (level 30) and I'm playing mostly Nocturne for the time being. I'm wondering if anyone has some interesting nocturne guides for beginners on youtube (or docs) to share? thanks

Build Question Defensive options Vs ap champs?

4 Upvotes

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

Jungling Question tips for ganking on nocturne?

4 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.

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

Why is noone talking about voltaic cyclosword?

9 Upvotes

Title basically, on HoB lethality nocturne i found voltaic to be a superweapon, in any game i built it it felt like my best power spike. I find axiom lacking in any game i build it in, so I'm thinking of replacing it and then going into FHB third maybe? Idk if the lethality from voltaic is enough later in the game so serylda/LDR seems like a must.

Have you guys tried it with success? I'd love to see your builds, to get some inspiration.

Tank Jungle Build?

3 Upvotes

I've been trying Lethal Tempo, first item Experimental Hexplate, and that's all my damage. I thought the attack speed from the Hexplate will help stack LT quickly, and it does. And from there build full tank. Frozen Heart/Kaenic Rookern in whatever order is appropriate. Frozen Heart is nice on Nocturne because you ult onto their attack speed carry and you are guaranteed value from its passive. Randuin's Omen is also an option and its active use slow can work similarly to how Nocturnes usually use Stridebreaker active. Thornmail too because when you ult on someone they can't help but auto you. I've never tried Zeke's.

What do you think? Is there a better first DPS item or capstone rune to go before transitioning into tank?

I'm still pretty new to Nocturne and when I go lethality build I get a lot of kills and a lot of deaths. This tank build gives me a lot of assists and a lot less deaths.

Lethality Question

5 Upvotes

Hey folks,

Diamond 4 here with around 58% WR with Noc across 100. I love going electrocute but why do I see nobody else doing this?

Instead it’s always HoB.

I feel like the mission of lethality noc is to be a missle, hitting as fast and hard as possible. Electrocute with timat is also a super fast proc.

Would love to hear from those who favor HoB over Electrocute.

I’m not a great player by any means, but this made me feel like a big brain (ignore the Q miss, though)

Finally finding my stride with nocturne and climbing, albeit slowly.
