Support Nilah Build

General

1. You're a healer, Harry.
2. Even though Nilah is not typical support, you are gonna support your team very effectively. With heals, shields and buffs:
• Heal summoner spell.
• Guardian and Font of Life runes.
• Redemption, Locket of the Iron Solari and Moonstone Renewer and other items.

Champion

1. Your Passive works with Moonstone Renewer. Your main power comes from your Passive + W + R and your runes.
2. This build scales with champions on your team with Healing/Shielding. The more champions that can do it on your team, the better this build becomes.
3. This build is still playable even if you team has zero Healing/Shielding (thanks to Moonstone Renewer + Redemption combo).

General

1. Your first rush is Redemption.
2. Your second rush can be Locket of the Iron Solari (vs AoE), Moonstone Renewer (sustain).
3. Also, Echoes of Helia is pretty good because you can proc it consistently.
4. Rush second Locket if your team already doing teamfights or when an enemy team has champions with super aoe damage (example: like Fiddle's ult). Otherwise, get Moonstone Renewer #2. The third item should be whatever you did not buy - Locket of the Iron Solari or Moonstone Renewer. That's your core.
5. Another decent item if you have carry/strong bruiser/strong tank is Knight's Vow.
6. Try to use summoner spell Heal on cooldown. With Moonstone Renewer, ideally there should be at least two people for maximum healing effect.
7. Later in the game, for maximum support - you can sell boots for sixth item.
8. You can get items like Ardent Censer (some auto attackers needed) or Staff of Flowing Water. It will be triggered often enough that it will be worth.
9. Interesting item is Cryptbloom. If you want to go full healing, you can get it like #4+ item.

Runes

1. With Cosmic Insight rune from Inspiration tree:
• Redemption and Locked of the Iron Solari has 81.92 sec cooldown (down from 90 sec).
• Shurelya's Battlesong has 68.12 sec cooldown (down from 75 sec).
2. Guardian is important rune. It is going to provide tons of shielding. Remember that you need to be close to your allies to proc it.
• You can also manipulate it - for example, you can stick to one ally, or avoid some spells that's gonna only waste it.
3. You will be triggering Font of Life effect, which will heal your allies. It also chains off Moonstone Renewer!
4. Font of Life total healing is not properly calculated in a post-game lobby. Value is bigger in the game vs. what's displayed in statistics. You heal more!
5. Another important rule is Cosmic Insight, it reduces cooldown for your active items (so more heals/shielding) and Heal summoner spell.

Redemption

1. Try to use Redemption on cooldown, when your allies are missing some health. It is best to use when they are grouped. Especially if you already have Moonstone Renewer, it is best to wait (or ping) until they group together, so you can have them all healed.
2. Remember that you can use Redemption for the damage. However, in general, it is not worth it. Keep it to heal your team!
3. Be careful when using Redemption while you are dead, and you are about to be respawned. The camera will go to your position, and you can cast it in the spawning pool by mistake. Watch out for bad timing!

Champion

1. Nilah's Passive even works if your allies buy Rod of Ages or Sundered Sky or with healing passives like Gragas'.
2. You have pretty good engage with W + Shurelya's Battlesong.
3. Be careful about going in, because early on - you will be squishy.
4. You can pair your Jubilant Veil (W) with Shurelya's Battlesong for maximum utility and movement speed.
5. You have incredibly mobility thanks to Slipstream (E). You can disrupt fights pretty well and bait enemies, then E out very quickly. Be careful though, you will be squishy early and outside of your Jubilant Veil.
6. Your play pattern is going to be buffing your allies with W, going in with E to bait enemies, using your ult Apotheosis and E away to safety.
