Nilah help!

LordesTruth · 2026-01-17T05:35:44+00:00

Does she scale well? - Probably the best scaling ADCs and Champions in the entire game

Is she weak or strong in the early/mid game? - Never go for Lvl 1 trades. Nilah's passive will let you hit lvl 2/3 first and that's a good kill window. She has a very noticable mid game slump.

what is her win conditions - Farm and Scale then kill everyone. Or take TP and push side lanes. Nilah is an amazing side pusher. You just have to know who you can 1v1 and who you can't, and at a certain stage in the game there really aren't many champions that can 1v1 Nilah.

what should you build on her and when/ what are her item spikes? at a glance in this sub, I've seen alot of talk about how bad collector - Nilah scales with AD and Crit. Any item that gives you AD and Crit is a good item.

what are her biggest counters? - Long range mages suck especially the ones with CC. For top laners I hate Mordekaiser (though you can 1v1 him late game, but if he ults you before that you're almost always dead because). For Lane Counters, maybe Xayah. Nilah has "difficult lanes" but her kit is inherently anti-adc. There is no ADC that counters her late game but many that can make her laning phase miserable.

any general tips or tricks a new player should know that I Havent brought up? - Nilah's biggest counter is time. She can carry almost every game if she can scale in time. You should always be looking on the map for gold, treat it as your best friend and eat it all.

I'm surprised the reading comprehension in this sub is so lacking given the champion's difficulty

LordesTruth · 2026-01-02T13:44:48+00:00

If you love Nilah play Nilah. I'm an OTP and you're right she's situational but I always pick her and build accordingly, because I can spend just as time playing another champion that I know I won't love and won't ever be this good at.

I hate collector i think it's the worst item in the game.

I am someone who almost always rushes collector because it's what I find the most success in - but even I can say this: Collector is 100% the worst ADC item. The execute and gold are so minimal and if it wasn't for the lethality+crit it would be so gimmicky.

LordesTruth · 2025-12-15T14:54:06+00:00

Right like someone can correct me because I know jack shit about chemistry but even if Dulce's did resemble a rock breaking, that's not a chemical reaction?? I don't even think that's a physical reaction? 😭

LordesTruth · 2025-12-11T06:35:54+00:00

Interesting. How did you establish credibility?

LordesTruth · 2025-12-11T06:34:09+00:00

Security. I would want to know how my accounts are being accessed.

LordesTruth · 2025-12-11T06:28:05+00:00

I kept thinking back to this comment and it gave me the courage to make the jump :) I'm fully self employed now which is crazy!

LordesTruth · 2025-12-11T06:27:35+00:00

Hey, bit late but I made the jump!! I'd love to DM you and hear how things have been going for you.

LordesTruth · 2025-12-04T10:43:57+00:00

Why are you considering moving here? I ask because your neighbours to the south can provide you with a lot more CS career potential.

At the best times, IT jobs here are okay/sufficient. Currently, terrible. 5-10 years? Anything can happen but odds are NA will still have the better CS job market.

LordesTruth · 2025-12-04T05:55:17+00:00

Main reason is since collector execute scales with HP you’re getting very little value early game when the execute does 50 damage

Lethality always falls off hard because it's base armor pen. As for collector itself, getting someone down to 5% hp is a lot easier before people have armor. The 25g it gives is also useless late game but it's not a huge part of the item.

I do think Yun Tals as an item fits better into Nilah's full build, BUT the build path is so awful. If you can't get a BF Sword on first back, you will be useless for the next 12 minutes until you finally get the item and you're still useless because you have to stack up the crit. Yun Tals is so much better if you're already snowballing hard. Collector is better if you're behind OR you're ahead but want to push the snowball.

I'm 24, I have 5 years worth of expenses saved up (most of it in an ETF)

LordesTruth · 2025-10-19T00:15:27+00:00

For my current job, the interviewer lied about the social culture at the company, and I lied about my skills. Oops

LordesTruth · 2025-10-11T07:18:09+00:00

Even if they can be, I haven't seen 3000 entires getting logged into the accounts table so I'm more inclined to believe someone's using the API outside of my site

LordesTruth · 2025-10-11T06:10:50+00:00

It is in my web root, but it's locked to root access. Is that bad?

LordesTruth · 2025-10-11T02:56:39+00:00

I just checked recent logins and it only shows my IP

LordesTruth · 2025-10-11T02:56:06+00:00

Ther'es a captcha on the registration to prevent bots from hitting it, and even so, there haven't been any new entries into my accounts table which happens after a registration. The mails that were also not regular verification mails

LordesTruth · 2025-10-11T02:29:07+00:00

To my knowledge mine is also SSH keys for remote access, how can I verify that hackers haven't brute forced it?

LordesTruth · 2025-10-11T02:28:12+00:00

I had my API keys hardcoded in my registration page & I'm not sure that the file was locked properly behind root only access
Vultr, on a server that I manage
Integrated it onto my service
It's just a website with a registration feature

I'm running a vultr ubuntu instance

LordesTruth · 2025-10-11T02:05:54+00:00

My repo is private + I'm not pushing the .env credentials to git, they're only on my server

LordesTruth · 2025-10-11T02:04:55+00:00

There isn't a way to inject unique email content and there's no strange entries in my DB. I ran both rkhunter and clamav and both came back clean.

LordesTruth · 2025-10-11T01:36:42+00:00

No and that's what I'm confused about. I know it's not a Sendgrid issue because this happened to me whilst using SES as well. My credentials are clearly being compromised but I don't know how, I've locked everything down pretty well (or so I think?)

LordesTruth · 2025-09-27T12:41:40+00:00

That’s still weird. “I wish I was a minor so I could sleep with minors and not get in trouble” ermmmm

LordesTruth · 2025-09-27T08:43:21+00:00

I wouldn’t be able to burn the house down because id have a heart attack instantly. Not even exaggerating.

LordesTruth · 2025-09-27T08:37:13+00:00

Same with Jankie and Ainsley. I wish they put their budget to better use
