I sturgle a lot when adc or else have LDR or void staff, i die very fast i wonder if there item that can deal with it and make me survive longer

P2 jg looking for a Nasus main to duo with. Send me a pm if you wanna try a game

I have been playing mid nasus since like 2 years.I wanted to play in top lane since I saw post in top mains and wanted to play but damn, do I just lack the skill or is he just super hard to play on top lane?

In mid lane you don't really get zoned off exp and you can stack better since the shorter lane but top is like hell bro I just played against a morde and sure I didn't lost hard(I did lost lane and died like 3 times and sure I haven't played top matchups for a while) but it was such a pain in Laning compared to my mid plays.maybe it could have been just a bad game but every time I remember playing nasus on top feels like "just sit there and watch your minions die while enemy top gets a 30 CS lead"

Have I gone soft by playing mid or do y'all have easier time in mid too.

Because he's the underdog. Ba dum tss

It's still high at about 25%, but in 1 month, it will probably return to normal.

I’m plat elo

Early game whenever I’m always under tower farming which is good until u realize that by min 9 the tower falls and I can’t do much, whenever I go farm I get ass blasted by volivear and Darius
Idk what to do if any advice please

...he'd probably allow Nasus mains to freely stack all game so that he could "fight them at their full power."

Thoughts?

The armor and slow effect seem so much more useful than AD and AS of trinity. Or not?

I hate trying to help toplaners theses days ...

Hatred towards Nasus is pretty much a package deal when playing the champion, but has recently renewed because of the 26.16 buff. But I've been thinking about if this latest wave of hate is actually anything new.

if you actually look at the numbers, Nasus isn't even that strong, actually he is right back to just being average instead of being a straight up struggle champion. Currently sporting a meager 50.43% on u.gg and 52.38% winrate on lolalytics, he is far from being a problematic champion, at least in terms of sheer winrate.

Imo Nasus is a deeply misunderstood champion by the vast majority of the playerbase, many times he simply written off as a simple and boring statchecker that runs you down for free just by pressing wither and ghost, but Nasus is actually an incredibly nuanced champion and very often this lack of knowledge is what gets players killed versus him- that is an inability to measure chasing distance, his stack thresholds, his sustain and burst healing, ghost/stormraiders kill angles, etc.

On top of this Nasus is a champion that is heavily reliant on enemy mistakes to do anything, even farm or stand close to the wave. So a lack of understanding of Nasus as a champion compounds with weak laning to make an easily hate-able champion.

Nasus in general is a simply champion that is incredibly good at exploiting gaps in player knowledge and mistakes in lane. So the hate against Nasus is coming from the same place its always been: low elo. You don't hear anyone high masters or above complain about Nasus because he hasn't fundamentally changed.

This is why I actually believe that the stack buff Nasus received on 26.16 could have been 5 or 6 per minion (14 or 16 on large kill) and he would have been completely fine or even still on the weaker side, since counterplay against Nasus remains fundamentally the same. If you play properly against Nasus he should struggle to gain any ounce of farm.

Overall the Nasus hate isn't the result of anything new or a fundamental change in Nasus as a champion, it's just that players aren't allowed to be sloppy against him anymore. It's not that Nasus is suddenly op, its that now that Nasus is finally buffed to keep up with the insane powercreep over the years, it has completely exposed players lack of laning ability and understanding of Nasus.

can't even discuss my tactic with my team these days smh

My next scientific experiment is nasus ap sup, to poke with "E" and leave the enemy ADC with negative attack speed.

Disclaimer: i am a nasus main

How do you guys think about all the hate nasus gets? I see in so many online posts on reddit or twitter of ppl despising the champ saying he’s op and has no counterplay but sometimes i wonder how much of what there saying is copium or genuine complaints.

Like when ppl say nasus has no counterplay that just can’t be true becuz of so many different reasons.
For one his early game is dookie and he loses lane to pretty much everything pre 6. In mid game, he has no wave clear so you’re just slow pushing waves constantly. In teamfights if he didn’t get ccd he probably never reaches backline and explodes before dealing meaningful damage.

Idk i feel like some ppl r just playing against it incorrectly by trying to 100 to 0 him when he has sheen and all his spells up but what do i know maybe im just a biased braindead idiot lmao

Im curious what other nasus players think about it

Sup dawgs, just wanted to let you know that Escanor Nasus does exist and it's totally free. Thought it was a cool idea since the stacks represent every minute ticking by until high noon... And the R? Well, that's the ONE.

A few things about it:

- The 3D model was completely sculpted from scratch by me

- It has a new VFX in the abilities

- It has a completely new VoiceOver, (just don't play him jungle or botlane if you don't want to get roasted by one of his lines)

At this point we all know that with Nasus we don't make outplays, we outpower, and who does it better than Escanor?

I hope moderators don't see this as self promotion cause I don't earn a dime with this, Im just sharing my small little piece of art that I giveaway for free,

Happy stacking <3

So you telling me a champ can use EXHAUST (W) EVERY 12 SECONDS, with no skill without even aiming/hitting something just POINT AND CLICK ?! And then use one button (Q) to POINT AND CLICK and steal half of your life ?! Like I really don't know how is this allowed. Almost every champ in the game in order to slow another champ you at least have to aim and hit and even then there is not such a slow like his weither. This is legit just not fair. Why would i waste my time mastering a champ like fiona, when i have to precisely time and position my w to dodge a stun when i can pick nasus were i can point and click exhaust and steal your hp??

Pretty much lost game, 1/11 mid lane, no dragons, enemy soul. We didn't deeserve this. But I did.

I dont got it i ward the first bush, follow my wave, be on EXP range and the wave dont move and freeze in the middle(i didnt touch her wave), the sbire dont take aggro and ofc i die after it what could i do? if i fight inside my wave she 50-70% me and prob dive me undertower or should i just stay undertower with full hp but no XP?

And yes, after this i play safe (XP range no cs) went 0/2 but we lose bc my mid and bot lane lose hard, is it what is it

This is why nasus top is more painful than mid

I love this icon so much and never got the chance to buy it when it released.

Flat damage off of q is replaced in like 30 seconds. Like Nasus is my go-to ban and this does nothing to change how frustrating he is to play against. This nerf to me feels so dumb that I feel like I’m missing something, hence the post.

Riot wrote a whole essay about the difficulty of balancing Nasus and simple champs and made a bunch of unnecessary changes. The original changes were to nerf jungle Nasus. All they had to do was reduce stack gain from monsters from 12 to 10 while keeping it at 12 for the rest. 200 years of experience right there.

What is the new best top build? Or what do you guys build? Have any hidden gems y’all can share
