AP Nasus support, does it work?

I mean it can work, but you really only have two skills if you do. Your E is pretty decent harass all things considered while also making the enemy more squishy for your ally and your W outright neutered everything good about adcs, but your Q and R are gonna be useless.

It’s the kind of support that can win more rather then change and affect a one that is behind.

Imo, it's dependant on how you build it, and your gold budget.

If you only build full AP items, I'd say no.

If you build in item 3146 item 3065 and possibly item 3115 into it, then possibly, because you can sustain enough to auto attack/Q as well and heal from it.

The main weakness of AP nasus is low Life steal recoveries, and less tankability. If you can counterbuild one of those two weaknesses and semi counterbuild the other, AP could be viable.

Yes, in low-mid elo anything works and AP Nasus Support is good. When I played it you can have immense zoning pressure from your e and give your adc free farm and it wears down the morale of your opponents

His mana costs are too high and his dmg is really low, all mage supports have hard CC and Nasus has none

Like your E can buff your ADC's damage with armour shred and you can wither the enemy ADC in a fight, but you throw away your passive, Q and ult cd on the Q... it's not a good idea

It'd be hard to use E for poke without messing up your frostfang gold and nothing is going to stop a support of any kind from beating you

And really you're just going to be a blob of hp in a fight because you have little damage and no hard CC

Malphite Is much more fun in the support role, I get pretty fed on him fairly often

It dominates lane and sucks if you dont win quickly.
