I watched that Sirhchez guy play Nasus and that coin start seems genius

Probably going to miss lots of cs early game anyways because Nasus. The sustain and gold it gives is really nice too. I should build that to start.

i have a friend that always starts coin as nasus and when people give him crap he just tells them he can't go to war without his dog tags

coin is a garbage item for nasus. starting with cloth+4 gives you more survivability and sustain, which means you can farm better and gain more gold. never ever do it, unless you don't want to improve

Tbh it gives him the extra gold and it gives him the speed boost later when he's built it fully so it aint really a bad idea

You do realize coin is a pretty troll start right? I feel like your post is sarcastic...can't tell though. Ha

I do like watching Sirhcez since he teaches a lot of basic mechanics with Nasus, but his builds are almost always suboptimal and/or complete garbage at worst. A few weeks ago he was building item 3142 and item 3147 on Nasus.

Just the other night he built two item 3078 's.

I do think he is a great player though with Nasus. He has the craziest builds and somehow he still wins games with it. I think his game sense is on a level far behind a lot of players in his elo, because he consistently does odd builds for entertainment purposes and plays a champion that has a hard time competing at that elo pretty effectively WITH the bad build.

item 2010 item 1029 is your best start with item 1028 being a good start verse AP tops.

I will sometimes take item 1056 item 2010 against match-ups like teemo because I will likely have to max E.

WTF, that's 2 different people who don't take corrupting potion? Am the only one who runs out of mana before I run out of health as Nasus on my first back?

I typically go item 1082 as nasus. Then HP pot

As Nasus snowballing or just getting to late game is what he's about, get dark seal and holy shit the damage from his E is absurd.

I always started with coin with nasus, 5% cdr right off the bat for more Qs, and more sustain and makes for a good gap closer when fully built. works really good in lower elo, not sure about high elo.
