Why are people so aginst evening nasus a cap for his Q

Nasus is one of the few "strategic" champions left in the game. In a world where most of the strategy involves character select and maybe a couple gear choices, it's nice to see a champion that forces people to think about long-term strategy instead of just tactical twitch plays.

"Can I afford to let Nasus free farm for a wave to go nuke Mid? Do I need to have my JG come in to gank to shut him down, or can he focus on his own farm and build?"

Choices like that, ones that don't affect the immediate situation but can win or lose the long game are interesting.

Because the only possible outcomes are 2:

• (Being fairy to Nasus) The Cap is still so high that it doesn't really matter, leaving the situation as it is.

• (Being fairy to the enemies) The Cap is low enough to affect the mjaority of matches which means flattening out a champion whose mechanic revolved around being able to smash you in a single hit.

It would ruin him. I don't like Nasus, but his Q is the wrong thing to go after. If Nasus is to be nerfed, it should be is W - the slow.

its the teams reward for being able to fend off 4v5 for so long, nasus comes out with 400 farm (and 800+ stacks (potentially 1200damage Q)) now when he comes to a 5v5 it should be in his favor. its the advantage of having a late game nasus, because the team is usually punished for it throughout most of the game. granted nasus can TP as he sees fit but it always costs farm for him to do so.

Because it hasn't been capped since 2009. It is also meant as a reward for the player for getting the Q that highly farmed, its regularly done in competitive play.

Nope.

tbh i wouldnt mind so much if he didnt have insane lifesteal on passive and can go full tank. its already capped by cdr. but if he's impossible to kill he'll likely be sure to get about 3 q's or so off that' if he's focused lol. which ends up being like 3 cho ults
