That Nasus change on the pbe to his ult

Is fucking amazing for tanking, shitty for eating baron and Dragon alive.

Maybe now we can buy other items besides pure tank, like a juggernaut

I didn't even know his ult gave him AD. Kinda redundant with what his Q does.

This change...whew that is something.

honestly this change is amazing and it's exactly what he needed, as i mentioned it multiple times. extra tankiness will allow him to go righteous glory and dive the backline with the active, while surviving enough to mess up enemy carries. this will make him much stronger against tank/peel teams, as he will drain more resistances from their massive hp pools.

build probably won't change, but it always depends on enemy team how you build. the most common (the best in my opinion) is: item 3025 item 3065 item 3800 item 3026 + situational item, usually omen/steraks, but i believe that steraks might take the cake now, as it will be extremely hard to burst through shield from it. obviously that means more armor and magic resist from ult

anyway, that's a change in good direction, i'm not sure if this is enough to make him strong again though

By the way Carnarius, just have to say, big fan.

I think I like it on paper.

since he got so much AD from his ult before, he didn't really need to get anything other than tank because he needed the stats

now that it's the opposite, he might be able to itemize for an armor pen item, or stack even more health.

I feel like this change needs to be accompanied with other tweaks though, something about it bugs me being a solo change

So, like, will this be the new build for Susan? item 3111 item 3078 item 3053 item 3022 item 3748 item 3139

That's a good bit of health and since he gains a ton of armor and magic resist from his ultimate, which is up majority of the time for big fights, he will chunk people.

i honestly dont know what to think about this change.

im not sure i like it. i mean juggernauts are supposed to be rewarded for getting into the middle of the enemy team and stay there as long as possible to deal as much damage as possible.

the extra damage on the q he gained from increasing ad, the more opponents his ult drained, did definitely help.

i feel like gaining extra resistances will not nearly be as effective for him since resistance pen and heavy armor shred will negate most of that bonus. while raw damage is more difficult to negate at least for squishies.

Does anyone know what the formula for ult dmg to armr/mr is? currently on pbe that is. Old formula was 6.75% of dmg dealt as bonus ad up to 300 max. If it stays the same, would be insane. The tool tip doesn't say.

we will have to wait for final patch notes i guess, it might be changes multiple times on the pbe. he also gained additional q range on his ult, which is also nice

Also, I can sort of see buying rylais on him now as a late pickup if the change goes through. You'll get so tanky from keeping them there that it's okay to get the hp from rylai instead of resistances.
