How to play Nolan:

Comboing Nolan’s skills can quickly drain his Energy, so grab the Purple Buff for the Energy cost reduction to greatly improve his sustain.

When rifts activate, there is a brief time frame where they can activate another rift made immediately after for an additional hit.

Catching an enemy in the center of Nolan’s Ultimate will deal 3 instantaneous hits immediately followed by 3 rift activations for a hefty burst of damage.

Tactics:

Early game (level 1-7): In the early game, Nolan should focus on jungling to unlock his Ultimate at Level 4 and significantly increase his burst damage, then start roaming to gank enemies in lane.

Mid and Late game (level 8+): In Mid to Late game teamfights, Nolan should go after isolated targets, or let a frontline hero initiate first before junping in himself. Nolan has good sustained damage and can pull off multiple skill combos in a teamfight.

Nolan Skills

Passive – Dimensional Rift

Nolan has the ability to pierce through space itself, leaving a gash in the ground that lasts for five seconds and slows any opponents that come into touch with it by thirty percent. After a brief wait, a rift that has come into touch with another rift will rupture, dealing 150 (+120% Total Physical ATK) Physical Damage and drawing opponents inside.

For each enemy hero or creep hit by a rift explosion, Nolan earns an additional 15 energy. When a single adversary is struck by a multiple hit explosion at once, the subsequent damage is only dealt at a rate of 75% of the initial hit. Nolan will upgrade his subsequent Basic Attack every six seconds such that it will dash and pierce the opponent for (+120% Total Physical ATK) Physical Damage while also forming a Rift.

Skill 1 – Expansion

Nolan deals 230/280/330/380/430/480(+40% Total Physical ATK) Physical Damage and slows targets hit by 30% for 1 second in a rectangle in front of him.

Skill 2 – Gauge

Nolan charges towards the direction of the target, dealing opponents in his path 70/100/130/160/190/220(+30% Total Physical ATK) Physical Damage.

Skill 3 – Fracture

Nolan slashes the foes in front, causing 3 rifts and delivering 100/150/200 (+15% Total Physical ATK) Physical Damage three times. In the meantime, Nolan takes off all of his buffs and slashes backward.
