As a travelling scholar, Nolan, the Cosmic Wayfinder, harnesses the power of the cosmos to stop the Calamity—a cosmic threat he discovered during his research in Eruditio. He traverses countless universes in search of a solution so he can finally reunite with his daughter, Layla. He summons inter-dimensional rifts onto the battlefield with his Cosmic Gauge, making him a skillful assassin who can instantly leap in and out of harm’s way.

How to win with Nolan
- Unlock Nolan’s Skill 1 (Expansion) first, as its high burst damage will help you kill jungle creeps faster. Level up his Skill 2 (Gauge) next to make your opponents think twice before ambushing you in the early game.
- Make the most of Nolan’s low-cooldown skills in the early game and use a more aggressive playstyle. Poke enemies constantly to make them step back, but never overextend.
- To use Nolan properly in battle, you must also think like him: a sharp and calculating fighter who only chooses favorable battles. Keep his energy gauge in mind and remember to save some for disengagement.
- Maximise his potential by practicing skill combos in the training room. Nolan’s skills have insanely low cooldowns, so you must have fast thumbs and coordination to execute his combos efficiently.
- His basic combo is as follows: Dash in with Skill 2 and make a Basic Attack to trigger an explosion, then use Skill 1 and 2 swiftly for another barrage.
- Use his Ultimate to do a quick burst of damage while managing space. (Cool guys don’t look at explosions)
Nolan's Abilities
Nolan’s skills will leave a rift on the ground, lasting 5 seconds and slowing down enemies by 30%. When rifts overlap, they pull enemies to their center and deal damage, granting Nolan 15 energy. If Nolan doesn’t deal or take damage for 5 seconds, his next Basic Attack will allow him to dash toward his target and deal increased damage.

Best Nolan Build
His high burst damage, mobility, and low cooldowns make Nolan a dangerous jungler. Thus, we’ll choose emblems, battle spells, and items that aid him in his jungling phase to ensure he snowballs into an effective assassin in the late game.
Best Emblem
Assassin Emblem
- Rupture – Grants 5 Adaptive Penetration.
- Seasoned Hunter – Increases damage to jungle creeps.
- Lethal Ignition – Scorches the target for additional Adaptive Damage.
Best Battle Spell
This build will not be complete without every jungler’s bread and butter spell: Retribution. Its True Damage is essential in securing the blue and red buffs, which boosts your capabilities as a jungler tenfold.
Best Item Build
Successful ganks in the early game help Nolan and his team build a significant lead in the late game. To do this, we prioritize building Tough Boots and Blade of the Heptaseas to increase our killing power. In the late game, work on buying items that increase Physical Attack and Physical Penetration to further increase his strength and efficiency.
- Ice Hunter’s Tough Boots

Situational items:
