Nocturne Mid.

I am an avid and experienced Nocturne player. I've been playing him since season two he was the first 6300 champ I bought (Yes I got him when he was still tier 4 champion) and I have a positive kda with him, win or lose, nearly every game. I agree with the meta that his best place is in the jungle, he has strong ganks, good global pressure with his ultimate, and he can become a monster late game. I saw a video online of faker (Hide on bush) playing nocturne mid. I immediately thought "well i can do that." So, I loaded up team builder with a friend went noc mid, and did really well surprisingly. I played three games and carried all three. I then had thoughts about taking him mid into ranked. I know a few higher elo players that say a good tactic for climbing is to play off meta champions. Before I try this out I was wondering if anyone else has caught on to his mid lane capabilities, and if they have any suggestions, build ideas, or just general tips about playing noc mid, or even when to take him mid lane? I love comments, even if you think this is a horrible idea I want to know what other people think about this.

He will get outpoked - noone with brain will try to manfight you. Also noc has no real escape and mid is the second most ganked lane after bot. You will need waveclear for the team and ranged AP burst dmg. So it's risky to take him mid. Maybe if you are last pick, but people usually firstpick mid.

If anything, I'd try him top. Midlane he'll get poked to death, despite his spellshield, if the opponent has a brain.

Oh, wait. juggernauts dominate top at the moment if they're not banned, nvm.

So what is noc going to mid that no other mid is going to bring? I personally say nothing but if you can think of something then he might have a/be niche.

Traits when i think of noc AD steroid spell shield delayed CC semi gobal ult

In some ways you are just a melee tf. In others you are a like Dia with a longer CDR ult. in no way you are better than the other 2.

If the enemy is crosses the 75% mark on the map you will kill him. if you get into the middle of the lane you should be harassed out. Not sure this will work

Passive+Q and your wave clear is just insane.Just push your lane like mad man.And force enemy farm under turet ,that way he cant poke you or he"s gonna lose shit load of cs.Every champ is viable if you know how to play him right.
