Very annoying matchup, you destroy him 1vs1, so he will need his team to kill u. When you 1vs1 be sure that his team is far away, and get him off. Remember that you can block his Q with your W, so use it when he tries to cc you. Pick Legend: Tenacity for this matchup, and upgrade W first.
Bel'Veth
She destroy you in first occasion she has. She can easly 1vs1 you. Ban her in lobby, or dodge :)
Diana
You should kill her if you apply E on her. Quite easy matchup, but good Diana don't rush into you. She will be waiting until your E is down. Pick 2x Magic Resistance, and buy MR boots, with a Maw of Malmortius.
Dr. Mundo
He is hard matchup, it's because he is too tanky and have his regeneration... Rush Black Cleaver/Serylda's Grudge. Try to kill him with your team, upgrade first W. Your E is not working on him bcs that shield.
Ekko
You dominate him before 6, after he get his ult, i don't recommend going all in into him. Buy magic resistance and get Maw of Malmortius. After that you can kill him, but if Ekko is good he can outplay you.
Evelynn
Go bruiser build and she is dead. Unless your team feed her very much. Buy Magic Resistance, with boots, and pick MR in runes. Preety easy matchup.
Fiddlesticks
Same as Evelynn, rush Magic Resistance and he can't do much. Don't get CC from his E, and you will be fine.
Gragas
Preety easy matchup, but if he goes AP, you have problem. Block his dash with your W and dont go all in to him. He can outplay you, wait until you get your R and dash to him. Rush Magic Resistance.
Graves
Hard matchup. wait for your R. If you 1vs1 him without R, he can outplay you with his W and you are dead. Go Bruiser.
Hecarim
Horse against dark? Very easy matchup just block his dash (E) with your W and he's dead. GG
Ivern
Kill him before 6lvl and it's gg for him. He is not hard matchup but like amumu, he will just wait to team-up. 1vs1 him when his alone.
Jax
Tell me how you want to 1vs1 a god of 1vs1?! You can't kill him even if he is on low hp. He dodge your every auto attack.
Karthus
The easiest matchup for Noc, rush him in jg in the whole match and it's gg for him. (ff 15)
Kayn
Oh man, I don't like that guy. There are 2 versions of him.
[Blue Kayn] - Easy matchup (hard: 2), you can kill him anywhere, dodge his W and just kill him, he can't dodge your E, even if he use his R.
[Rhaast] - Oh man, very very hard matchup (hard: 5), just don't 1vs1 him or you dead, maybe you can dodge his knock-up but still, he have his Q and R. Rush him before his form.
Kha'Zix
Better assasin what to say. Don't 1vs1 him or you are dead. You can't do much...
Kindred
Preety easy, she will try to kite you, but you have your E right? Go 1vs1 before 6 and its gg. After 6 well, you're preety fu*ked. Fight ONLY 1vs1 with her.
Kled
Dont 1vs1 him wait for your team. Rush death dance and GA for him.
Lee Sin
He will dominate you to lvl 6, gank very often your bot. You can 1vs1 him later. Rush death dance and GA (like we did in kled). If your team feed him he can 1vs1 easly.
Lillia
She will kite you, if you apply your E she is dead, remember you can block her Q with your W. After 6 you lose battle. She can easly outplay you.
Master Yi

Olaf
Another 1vs1 god. It's gg for you, beg your team to carry you.
Poppy
Might be a problem, but if you play good, you dominate her. He have a lot of armor and health, but don't have a lot of damage. You can 1vs1 but she need to be alone. Fight her in open area, its bcs she can't stun you.
Rammus
Hard matchup, he win 1vs1 with you easly. He have a lot of armor, and health. Play safe and don't fight with him. He click W+E and you are dead if you continue attacking.
Rek'Sai
Easy match. You can kill her easly most of the time.
Rengar
Medium matchup. If your team dont feed him, you can easly kill him. Just stun him with your E and he is practically dead. Use your W to block his E and get more AS. Upgrade E first, he dont have any shield unless he buy Edge of Night.
Sejuani
Not much problem if you block her dash. She don't wanna 1vs1 with you, so be scare about her team. She have a lot CC and armor. You win with her most of the time, but be aware that she can buy Thornmail.
Sett
Easy matchup, block his E and stun him as fast as possible. If you can stun him before he use his W use it. Buy Death Dance and win :)
Shaco
Annoying as f**k, DONT chase him. Buy a Magic Resistance (unless
he go AD), and don't feed him. Maybe he get your Fear from E and "Trail" from Q, you can kill him, but he is annoying.
Shyvana
Hard match, upgrade E first. You need to block "fireball" with your W and stun her as fast as possible. Buy Magic Resistance and Armor Penetration.
Skarner
Who plays that champ?! You win practically all 1vs1, so use it. Rush Armor Penetration and that's all.
Taliyah
Easy matchup. You kill her in all 1vs1 but, without R you can't do much to her, Buy Magic Resistance and dash to her with your R.
Trundle
Dodge bro, he is dominating you. IF you playin against him (if u decided not to dodge), ward your jg, bcs he is gonna steal your camps, in 1vs1 you cant kill him, dont feed him and get ready for teamfights :)
Udyr
Medium matchup. Block his stun and stun him lol. You can 1vs1 with him, but in endgame he can dominate you.
Vi
Easy matchup. Block her dash with W and rush Guardian Angel. She does damage in the first seconds of combat. Upgrade E first, you need a lot of CC into her.
Viego
Very easy matchup. Block his W and just win. He dont have chance with you although be aware that he may change into your ally.
Volibear
Maybe you can block his Stun but he is too tanky for you. You can't do much to him, in 1vs1 you are dead. Rush Guardian Angel at 3-rd item.
Warwick
Like Volibear. Rush GA and fight him with your team. You can dominate him before 6lvl.
Wukong
You can kill him before he get 2 completed items. Buy Death Dance as 3-rd. Don't 1vs1 him if he got his items. And be sure you are targeting him not his clone.
Xin Zhao
Preety easy matchup. You can 1vs1 him all the game, but in teamfight's you are dead. Rush Death Dance and Guardian Angel.
Zac
Very easy matchup. You can 1vs1 him very easy, but he does more in teamfights. Get Armor Penetration and kill him :)

Hello do you want to climb fast as Nocturne Jungle? This guide is for you :)
I teach you how to play Nocturne - The Eternal Nightmare
(My first Guide, if you have if you have any advice / oversight, write down below!)
(I'm from Poland, I learning English so sorry for any mistakes)
Why Nocturne?
Nocturne, it's one of the best Jungler and Assasin in the game. He have amazing abilites to solo most champions, and to be useful in teamfights. Nocturne is amazing Junger when it comes to helping teammates.
Difficulty - 4/10 Nocturne is easy-medium champion to play, Nocturne will be played even by beginners learning the jungle.
DPS - 8.5/10Nocturne DPS is really high, he does high damage even if build bruiser. His damage allows you to easy kill enemy ADC (such a Miss Fortune or Ashe. You can maximilize Nocturne's damage by build Lethality, but his viability will be low.
Teamfights - 7/10Nocturne is doing very well in Teamfights due to his ultimate: Paranoia. He can easly kill enemy backline, and deprive opponents of orientation around them.
Ganks - 9.5/10 Ganks as Nocturne are very pleasant. He can dash to enemy with his ultimate Paranoia, get AD with Duskbringer and stun with Unspeakable Horror. Ganks with Nocturne without Ultimate is still good, but enemy can easly escape (however if you attack from super, super back you can use your E on them).
Pros/Cons
Pros
+A lot of AD: Nocturne can get a lot of AD (sometimes over 500) due to his first ability: Duskbringer. Nocturne most important items for AD are: Death Dance, Stridebreaker/Duskblade.
+Amazing ganks: As I say earlier, Nocturne have amazing ganks due to his ultimate Paranoia. He can dash in 4k range, it's a lot. In combination with his ultimate and stun it's giving the team amazing Jungler.
Cons
-there is no potential to carry game: Nocturne can't carry his team,remember that he have potencial in early-middle game.
-Bad late game: Nocturne have bad late game, he only focus one champion, and if he don't take off enemy ADC in teamfight, game is lost.
Remember! You are not carry! Leave the kills for your team! You can't carry game but your team can! Nocturne is not carry!
Before The Game
Runes and Spells are at the top of the page! Passive: Every few seconds, Nocturne's next attack strikes surrounding enemies for bonus physical damage and heals himself. Nocturne's basic attacks reduce this cooldown. Use it in Jungle when doing camps (like Wofls) Q:Nocturne throws a shadow blade that deals damage, leaves a Dusk Trail, and causes champions to leave a Dusk Trail. While on the trail, Nocturne can move through units and has increased Move Speed and Attack Damage. Main ability, upgrade it first. Be sure to cast it when battle start! W:Nocturne empowers his blades, passively gaining Attack Speed. Activating Shroud of Darkness allows Nocturne to fade into the shadows, creating a magical barrier which blocks a single enemy ability and doubles his passive Attack Speed if successful. Use it when enemy tries to hit skillshot into you. If enemy team have a lot of tanks upgrade W first. E:Nocturne plants a nightmare into his target's mind, dealing damage each second and applying fear to the target if they do not get out of range by the end of the duration. Use it to stun enemies, when they tries to attack or escape you. R:Nocturne reduces the sight radius of all enemy champions and removes their ally vision in the process. He can then launch himself at a nearby enemy champion. Nocturne main weapon, ideal for teamfights or ganks. Use it when can, buy Axiom Arc for reduce cooldown on your ultimate.
Items
Starting Items - Best jungle item from all.
- Potion (it isn't obvious?
- And a ward :)
Boots - Ideal boots against AD champions. It gives you armor and reduce ALL autoattack damage for 12%.
- Best item vs Mages and CC champions (such as Lux, Veigar)
Core items - Best item choice for Nocturne it gives him Heath, Damage, Atack Speed and Ability Haste. That item is universal for all games. Stridebreaker is better than Goredrinker in this case, but Goredrinker is playable. - Another Core Item, it gives Nocturne, damage and armor, also heal him 120% of his AD. Perfect combo with his Duskbringer. - It gives Nocturne a lot of Ability Haste on his ultimate. Get this as 3-rd item in Bruiser Build (when there are no special cases) and pick as 1-st item in Lethality build.
Other Items - Nocturne wants this item if he is against a heavy AP. I recommend do this item 3-rd if theres much AP champions. Buying Hexdrinker first is a good idea. - Get this item when enemy team have a lot of healing (Fiora, Yuumi)
- Pick this item if enemy team have a lot of Tanks (Only bruiser build!) - Pick this item if enemy team have a lot of Tanks (Only Lethality build!)
