While damage is by far the biggest issue in League atm, there are at least 2 others

Two issues of which I do believe need to not be swept under the rug.

  • Nasus Wither. So let's just talk about this ability real quick. Wither has been considered to be the most overpowered move in the game through all the seasons. A lot of people will flat out tell you that wither should be nerfed due to it's powerful utility, extremely low CD and laughably low mana costs. For those that seriously don't understand why this is considered by many people to be the most OP move in the game, at max rank it slows you by 95% for 5 seconds while reducing your attack speed by 47.5%. Just buying a quicksilver sash would be the best option, meaning you can just burn his wither off you and continue the fight. Problem is, unless you're running ingenious hunter and cosmic insight, your quicksilver sash is on a 90 second CD but when Nasus hits 45% CDR, his 11 second wither, now becomes a 6.05 second wither. So this means that if you don't have quicksilver sash, Nasus can infinitely wither you until you die, or until he dies.

  • Having no reliable counter to shields. Aatrox and Irelia are the only champions that have any anti-shield kits. And they aren't extremely reliable because Irelia is almost permabanned, leaving only Aatrox. And let's not forget that item 3504 will have a 10% buff instead of 8% to shields while item 3222 will have a whopping 20%. This all added with Guardian, Aeri, and Revitalize means that shield champions are going to be incredibly strong. However, where the best answer into heals fromSoraka Sona Janna would be summoner 14 item 3165 and item 3033, there are absolutely no items to help reduce the shields.

Nasus wither can suck to deal with but it usually sucks in general considering that it hard counters certain champs and is completely ignorable to others.

Shields don't need a reliable counter since in most cases they have periods where they are down and the caster will still have said shield on cd. Not to mention most shields are single target and are casted reactively rather than proactively
