@ Riot: So Trundle can't Q towers anymore....

BlackEyesBlue·Jan 18, 2016·17 votes·2,269 views

And Mundo's bonus E damage doesn't affect towers anymore...

So when are you going to take away Nasus's ability to kill towers with 2 or 3 Q's? Seems fair given the current status quo.

honestly, i think that's nasus identity.

believe me, i hate finding a well stacked nasus alone "splitpushing" and tearing down everything in his path in top lane, but that's kinda his thing, the big tanky champion that can Q alot of things late game.

while trundle Shreds Tanks like there's no tomorrow

and mundo has an insane Tankyness/sustain without the need to hit lategame, he can be super tanky midgame.

each fills a specific role.

despite that, you need to understand that the meta isn't in Favor of nasus at all, everything is way too snowbally for him to get to the point of destroying towers.

hell he might be the ticket to the snowball for the enemy team thanks to his weak early game.

Meddler pretty much stated that they wouldn't be removing Nasus' ability to Q towers.

{quoted}

Some champions have power against towers as one of their intended strengths. Nasus and Trist are two of the biggest examples of that. Trundle and Mundo by contrast have other intended strengths, with tower punishing not being one of them. As a result if we need to take power away from them tower pushing ability's a good place to remove it.

And have him get compensation buffs for it? nty

BlackEyesBlueJan 18, 20168 votes

Did Trundle and Mundo get said buffs? No they did not.

Mecha MaIphiteJan 18, 20164 votes

because trundle and mundo were strong and actually warranted nerfs? trundle had one of the highest winrates in the game, and mundo still has a very high winrate

TroiannJan 18, 20163 votes

Did Nasus have a 57% winrate?

You're right. Trundle and Mundo only have super high winrates and are overpowered so they should totally get compensation buffs

NarasimhaJan 18, 20163 votes

Do they need them...?

I mean, say what you want about Nasus, but his ability to Q stuff is literally all he has going for him. He isn't a tank killer like Trundle, or an neigh unkillable monster like Mundo. All he can do is farm up his Q, and hope he gets enough stacks to start making a difference.

Because it is OK for champions to be different from each other.

Nasus has to Stack up his Q ability... trundle and mundo get that just by items and leveling.

Yeah, and Nasus doesn't have to get damage items.

ModKnightsKemplarJan 18, 20162 votes

Yeah, others said it.

They got nerfs because they needed them, and those nerfs felt okay to give.

Nasus...? not so much. He doesn't need nerfs, so they would have to give him buffs if they nerf him. No need.

lol.

It feels weird popping q and not doing anything with it when I'm taking a tower. It's like a habit. I didn't mind the mana and cd nerfs on his pillar and ult but the q nerf was something that bugged me. Then again i can see why people complained.

Anu3isIIJan 18, 20161 votes

Ummm... There is a big difference between those abilities? In case of Mundo and Trundle, their bonus damage starts high and they literally have high innate power from their kits.

In Nasus' case, his Q needs time and stacks to become powerful, and compared to the other two, his early game duels are much weaker.

Also everyone says that this is "Snowball" meta (I don't really believe it, but it can be), and Mundo with Trundle have a much better time than Nasus.

Nasus is annoying if he gets stacks and achieves the scenario you mentioned, but if he couldn't do that, he would be ignored for the whole game. He is picked for his split push power and powerful mid to late game duels.

AbyssphereJan 18, 20161 votes

This thread is retarded. Mundo and Trundle needed nerfs so they took off strengths that weren't core to them and they didn't get compensation because they NEEDED an overall power reduction.

Get rid of Nasus's ability to kill turrets and he will get compensation, there is no question about it. The inevitable 30% win rate isn't something Riot would let stay.

ZephyrDrakeJan 18, 20161 votes

yes because Nasus is in need of any nerfs... do people just look at what is nerfed and go "oh then this champ should have it removed also" instead of even wondering why the champion got something nerfed/removed?
