I think there's something wrong with building full tank and having the most damage on your team. Yes, I'm salty. I just feels wrong to dominate a nasus all game to the point to where he's 1/6, try your absolute hardest to gate his cs, yet he still manages to kill you in 3 qs. Not only that, but he 3 shots towers and your nexus.

Please tell me how it's fair to -build full tank and still do twice as much damage as your carries -have an ability to that's able to kill a tower in 10 seconds -be able to stack damage without any risk but enormous reward

Nasus may not be the OP of the month, but I don't think anyone can deny that his kit is fundamentally broken.

Inb4 just dodge the spear Just pink ward the shroud Just kite the nasus

Nasus takes ghost and possible ancient coin. Gl playing any immoble carry against that and the 4 other people trying to kill you.

Nasus is annyoing but, there are ways to counter him. For example your jungler camps top and get him behind and meanwhile hes farming toplane for late game you force dragons and towers and end the game before 30. There is a reason in high elos he isn't played because in terms of being countered he can easily be countered and camped.

Not only is he strong, he's boring as fuck to play with/against.

Nasus is actually a really good example of a champion with what Riot is always talking about, clear strengths and weaknesses. On one hand, he will scale into a tanky DPS machine that can beat anyone toe to toe, giving him great split-push power. On the other hand, he is pitiful in the early game and has literally zero mobility, making him unable to reach the enemy backline in teamfights without a lot of help.

Sounds like you made a classic mistake against Nasus, trying to keep bullying him after the the first couple backs. No matter how well you do against Nasus, he's eventually going to reach a point where he can just farm and sustain against you. Once you take his first tower (and ideally kill him once or twice) you should be roaming to get objectives and snowball the rest of your team. Pushing Nasus to his second tower does nothing but waste your lead and make yourself vulnerable to ganks. If you roam, Nasus has to either keep farming passively, or follow you, losing farm and probably still losing the larger fight because he's behind.
