Nasus Runepage Setup?

nananananacat··2 votes·585 views

1 Cooldown Reduction Quint and 9 Cooldown Blues for 10% starting CDR.

2 Armor Quints for 8.5 armor

9 Health yellows for 72 health or 9 armor yellows as usual.

For my reds, I'm thinking that I should go armor reds (8.2 armor), because I don't need the AD to last hit well with Q, and I will have 16.7 armor without taking armor yellows. or 24.7 with armor yellows.

I think I might keep the 9 armor yellows so that I basically have a free cloth armor then the standard armor from runes as well.

With 9 armor yellows, I can rush MR and a pot against lanes like Teemo, and against easier lanes I can rush Sheen faster without having to build cloth armor first, or if I really need it with a Darius or something, I can buy cloth armors for Glacial Shroud. I feel like this rune page would make it a lot easier to survive and stack in lane.

With an armor yellow runepage, my total stats gained would be:

  • 10% CDR
  • 24.7 armor (15.7 more armor than standard armor yellows)

Whereas with health yellows, I would have

  • 10% CDR
  • 16.7 armor (7.7 more than standard armor yellows)
  • 72 Health

Thoughts?

I personally prefer:

Lifesteal Quints (Sustain for Q and Sheen) Armor Pen Marks (Sheen and Q and ultimate's AD scaling) Armor Seals MR Glyphs

You are certainly on the right track, but for his CDR, you should run 3 flat CDR Quints and 3 Flat CDR Blues. 6 Scaling or Flat (I prefer Scaling) MR Blues and then 9 Flat Armor or Flat Health Seals. For Reds, you should run either Flat AD or Armor Pen or a combination of the 2.

You don't even need CDR runes anymore, which strengthens his early game in some matchups since you can go back to using MR blues. They changed Sheen to give CDR. In some neutral lanes, you can viably take Sheen as a first item and sit on it. Lead into Kindlegem / Glacial Shroud depending on matchups and you'll eventually get your 40 percent when you finish Glacial into Frozen Heart.
