So when are we getting the Nasus revert?

Just played a game against a Nasus jungle.

15 minutes in he has 300 stacks. He is not even super fed on kills or anything, he has just farmed 300 stacks from the jungle.

One siphoning strike halves the health of my ADC, and with his wither I can CC him as long as I want with whoever I want and he is STILL gonna catch up.

And even if he doesn't, I just wasted all my CC on a tank when I could have used them on the enemy teams back line.

If we lose a fight he decimates towers. He has free smites when contesting drake or herald/baron.

What are you supposed to do against that? Pray your team's jungler picks Lee Sin or someone with better early damage and also make sure to pray that he commits to invading and stealing all his camps?

Where did this buff even come from? Literally out of nowhere for me, I haven't heard people complain about Nasus in a LONG time. Sure he was difficult to play early but to make up for it he was a late game monster.

You could say that this buff was to make him viable in the new meta where games end faster, but all he does is make it end even FASTER THAN THAT

This needs a revert.

I got 500 stacks in 20 minutes as nasus jungle. And yeah i ended up solo carrying with a quadrakill but really, you suck at ganks and are easy for the enemy jg to counterjg you. So if the enemy team doesn't take advantage of that atleast then that's their fault.

Nasus jungle is a free loss for his team for several reasons - he doesn't gank (because he afk farms) and can't gank people with dashes (majority of new champs), can't 1v1 anyone who steals camps or tries to kill him early, doesn't really take dragons or herald, because it takes a long time, so he is actually losing stacks; doesn't really try to end the game, because... well he wants 1000 stacks or more; needs xp and gold - and there is too little of this in the jungle.

IF you lose to him, it's entirely your fault, because it's like 4v6 for 20 minutes, plus he gets permaCCed vs good teamcomps.

Last time I plsyed vs Nasus Jungle I picked an ADC jungler and killed him a few times at his second buff.

Very sure you cannot get 300 stacks from jungle alone...but okay.
