How to play it

Respect his ult
If Nocturne can hit you with Paranoia he kills you 1v1: don't walk over wards inside his ult range, and Edge of Night blocks his Darkness.
Bait his W
His Shroud of Darkness (W) blocks your next ability: pop the spellshield with your W so it can't eat your E.
Empower W on fear
When his Unspeakable Horror (E) fear catches you, use your empowered W to survive it.
Never let his Shroud of Darkness (W) eat your E: pop the spellshield with your W first.
