Why is Nasus a thing?

Honestly, I don't post of the league forums. I just want to see other people's opinions. Nasus is a top lane champion who in my opinion you can't win lane against unless you get a camp from your jungle. Even if you harass him early game, due to his built in life steal, he'll sustain and continue farming. If you're fighting a good Nasus, he'll freeze and make it impossible to gank his lane. He'll eventually outsustain you, tank all your damage, AND outdamage you due to his infinite Q stacking. You also can't escape him easily due to his extreme slow. If you roam you give him exactly what he wants, a free stacking/splitpush lane to the point where 3+ people need to kill him. I don't know I just find him really unfair, any thoughts?

Yep, I've officially seen just about every stupid complaint someone can make in the LoL community. I can die happy now.

sounds like a plan

Uh, all I can say is that's not true. He's a difficult matchup and also flat out beats alot of top laners but there are counters and it's definitely a rather even fight vs my illaoi.

Have your team pick vayne and a hard tank peeler and in teamfigts the nasus won't be able to do much.

I suck at top lane, and I often find Nasus difficult to trade too, he has a lot of sustain. But when I try him, I often find myself dead. There must be something wrong I'm doing.

Trundle

I might not be the best source of info (I am bronze after all) but i find that trying to survive is the best plan of action, If you back and your teleport's down he can get A LOT of stacks for free (I know this from playing as and against nasus.)
