Nasus' sustain thoughts

Death by Glamour··3 votes·939 views

Likely going to be a very unpopular thread.

So anyone else think that it is to strong given that his siphoning strike plus sheen grant him such a powerful aa that he can heal himself almost to full with two qs.

Its pretty disappointing to so heavyily out trade him to see him run back to tower to await the incoming wave.

He doesn't heal to full with 2 Q's.... if you let his Q stack that much...you've basically let him win. It's like getting angry that Veigar has 1500 AP and he 1 shot you.

My point is that it is to hard to punish him, as some one else said he fights you on his terms.

Considering the amount of cdr he gets from 3k gold its super hard to stop his free farm without alot of jungle focus and 2man tower dives.

yea from a design perspective, a character who continues to "stack" power shouldn't have as good of an early game as he does. I'm not saying he's top tier or anything but he can definitely hold his own against most champs if played right, then half hour later he is totally out of control even building full tank

You do not know what you're talking about if you think Nasus can "hold his own" versus literally any top laner right now.

Nasus hugs turret and prays, he doesn't "hold his own".

So he can "hold his own" if he has a massive gold/xp advantage? Wow, impressive.

So, okay, you think he should still be hiding under turret with a massive gold/xp advantage?

I'm baffled as to what you're actually suggesting here.

Tbh i think a new rework is really needed on him, hes just a ball of stats.

Passive change would be good for the short term depending on what it would be.

Honestly, his passive lifesteal is only there so that he isnt complete garbage in lane. And considering he doesnt build any ad barring a tri force, he needs around 500 stacks along with a visage to be healing around 150-200 per q.

Not to mention his lifesteal actually gets worse the later the game goes, as he doesnt build armor pen

I agree, his kit is allows him to interact only on his terms or he just farms under tower from harass. Before you know it he's built full tank and chunking towers down. Only hope against nasus is helping other lanes. In other words, beat his team before he beats you single-handed

I just choose Illaoi into him, E him, and then let Illaoi and her tentacles do what they do best. Make sure the enemy doesn't farm.

Yeh i did that in one of my previous games.

Basically soloed his team during ult.

Shes basically nasus 2.0 with the same weaknesses tho

I dont think he is the unkillable god of teamfights many make him out to be. Alot of people tend to over eatimate how powerful he actually is, im not saying he wont destroy your squishys but he has to get to them.

You realize how many top laners fit the description currently. Darius and Garen are both able to pick fights they want, Gangplank will zone most melee's out with his barrels alone. Most top laners are able to do that, if they get a minor advantage in lane.

Then you play Heimerdinger into Nasus.
