Nyx Assassin Support

Key Strategy

Key strategic elements to consider when playing Nyx Assassin

• Nyx is a fairly weak laner. Focus on creep equilibrium, pulling and securing runes for midlaner.
• Use Impale to secure the ranged creep and stun opponents at the same time if possible.
• Consider hijacking a second opponents` creepwave behind the tower at 50 seconds into the game.
• You can use Spiked Carapace during Vendetta without exiting it.
• Once you have Vendetta up, be active - setup kills and scout. Avoid showing yourself on the lanes too much.
• Pick up Aghanim`s Scepter as it improves most of your spells among other things.
• Remember to use Mind Flare only after you have used all your other damage dealing spells and items.
• Use portals to roam between lanes and get kills with your Impale and Carapace setup.
