Why does Nasus have such a ridiculus slow?

what kind of slow makes u feel like your stunned for ours? plz nerf Wither, its such a big pain and i don't have time to buy a qss all the time, i know you can use master yi to counter it but, i don't like yi bcuz of his brokenness(who also needs a nerf) its so easy for nasus to 1v5 bcuz of his stacks, having a champ that can infinitely increase their damage, and others that cant is very unbalanced, and its impossible to stop from farming bcuz hes gonna farm either way safely under his tower. PLZ Riot do something his slow is sooooooo annoying. DX

A slow that costs 80 fking mana cripples him enough.

not when frozen heart is one of the best items a nasus can rush

He's totally immobile. It has a high mana cost.

There you go.

yeah but your pretty bonned when someone is roaming, about to get ganked and you get crippled and its flash or dead. unless the nasus doesn't have common sense and he cripples to far away or when they are coming in to gank (should be as they are walking out of river bush to get the best effect)

You're also talking extremely late-game.

i'm talking early, if you push into his lane to far, your really vulnerable to it.

Should've warded to prevent the full effects of his wither. Chances are, if he's coming at you dead-on, gank incoming.

Remember when Nasus actually had real mana costs making it possible to effectively deny him farm for a long time but his attack speed slow was twice as strong.

I miss season 2.

I'm not entirely sure if you're serious or if you're just trolling. Nasus is perfectly beatable if you know how. You know he has his slow; don't push. Stay near the middle of the lane. If it's such a danger, change the way you play your lane to compensate. He has the same drawback to all of the other champions that farm to scale like Veigar... he should almost always lose lane if you're playing correctly, and you should capitalize on your advantage to end the game before he has time to get enough stacks to make him nightmarish.

Also, Yi? Broken? Did you even see when AP Yi was viable? He was at least 10x worse than he is now. His duration of highlander was increased so much by a kill or assist, he could gank every lane on the map on one ult sometimes if the player was abusing him correctly. Yi is a little strong in the jungle, but not really. Most of the time people just don't play careful enough, so his ganks are successful. If he doesn't get any good ganks, he can't carry the team in any way shape or form. There are so many better junglers out there... Jarvan, Vi, and even Nidalee are more terrifying that Yi.

Nasus haves great trouble actually hitting someone except towers with his Q when played vs competent mobile teams. Thats why he is played as backdoorer most of the times. The slow is the only way for him to get in range and its countered by various flashlikes as is.

I almost automatically ignore the opinion of anyone who thinks yi is OP. I don't usually use litmus tests like that to determine the validity of someone's argument, but yi is only scary if you don't know how to ward.
