Tips To Deal With Nocturne Counter 8.19

1) Nocturne’s Q/Duskbringer causes him to throw a shadow blade that deals damage and leaves a dusk trail in the area, champions who get hit by it also leave a duskblade behind them as they travel. This trail can be seen through the fog of war in areas where you might not have vision which helps in tracking out his location and if he is taking down objectives like a dragon or Baron with his team.

2) Nocturne’s E/Unspeakable Horror creates a tether with a specific target causing them to deal damage every second and also fearing them after if they do not get out of it’s range. So save your dash abilities while escaping when he starts channeling the tether on you.

3) Nocturne’s ultimate, Paranoia causes everything to go dark in the Summoner’s Rift reducing everyone’s radius of sight and removing ally vision in the process. After which he can launch himself to a target within range to deal damage. So collect yourself with other members when he has his ultimate up, to give him a hard time in killing his target and do not wander off in dangerous places if you are squishy since Nocturne can easily pick you off with his ultimate Paranoia.

4) Nocturne’s W/Shroud of Darkness grants him a spell shield protecting him from any and all abilities damage and any other effects it might have. This shield lasts for only 1.5 seconds so try to save your essential spells until he has used it or till it’s duration is down to avoid getting it consumed by his spell shield for no use.
