Nasus Mid

RenownedWheat42·Jan 2, 2018·1 votes·935 views

I've played it a couple times in PvP since preseason, finding success both times. Always up on CS over my opponent and winning every 1v1, despite being really easy to gank early. Haven't played it in a while but I wanted to try it out some more later today and see if it's anything actually worth playing (in my elo, mind you).

I run tp/flash, then phase rush, manaflow band, transcendence (probably going to switch to absolute focus), and gathering storm primary. Secondary I've been mixing it up to see what works best, haven't played enough of it to find something concrete yet.

Anyone have any legitimate tips on how to run him? I'd appreciate serious feedback. Thanks!

Are you going AP or standard?

Eh, i think transcendence is good. Absolute focus is kinda weird cause as soon as you meet good opponents, you won't be 70% + health in lane unless super favorable matchup. As well, if you go E max nasus you should probably take scorch. It's an early game setup, taking scorch will definitely improve your pressure, i think gathering storm is kinda weird here. I mean, if you wanna greed for lategame, might as well just go max Q nasus.

I'll try scorch + max E, but I go EQEW then Q max. Initial damage from E already feels great for harass with manaflow band.

I agree Absolute Focus is a bit weird, just switching a lot out atm to find something that sticks. Probably will drop it in favor of transcendence again. I'd take Celerity but I don't think it's necessary with Phase Rush and Approach Velocity.
