"Fair and balanced"

Niyumi·Sep 12, 2016·2 votes·377 views

Builds literally full tank.
Passive lifesteal.
Entirely targeted.
HP / Damage / AA steroid ult.
Targeted, 99% slow that slows AS as well.
Is MASSIVELY rewarded for farming (which is a requirement to even do well in League), and can literally one shot people for doing it.

... Remind me how the fuck that's fair in any way? Why can Nasus just build full tank, ignore you as he farms and heals any poke you do, and then turn around and one shot you with a targeted ability despite being full tank? IN WHAT WORLD IS THAT FAIR? I really don't fucking understand how Riot gets away with shit like that.

Either your ADC presses his QSS button, or you press your mikael's button, And then by the time nassus gets to Q your ADC once, he's already lost 6000 HP.

Nasus is pretty average. Can't tell you how many games I stacked well, didn't die, and can't do anything but try to splitpush because the enemy has a modest amounts of CC. I build item 3111 almost every game, buy elixir of irons, and run tenacity in the resolve tree, and I still will get chain CC'd and die in team fights.

I love playing Nasus, but I sometimes feel pretty helpless in games with his team fight being terrible.

He needs a bigger payoff for farming well and not dying early. Nasus has the worst early game for a top lane prior level 6, he has to stack resistances to survive laning, has no escapes except withering and walking away, and has to patiently farm while the team fights a 5v4.

With games being shorter and a stronger emphasis on early game and team fight, Nasus is a pretty bad champion.

When zzRot was OP, towers were weaker, and split-pushing was how you could easily win games he was doing OK.

Nasus has the worst early game of any character, his reward for surviving is a strong late game.

Yeah, just like Vayne has a weak early game. His "weak early game" ends as soon as he buys whatever resist he needs to stop you from even hurting him.

Excepting the fact that, if you don't have metric tons of hard CC and/or a good disengage dash, he will catch up to you with his bullshit slow.

There you go buddy you just listed two counters for him.Nobody in their right mind would try to 1v1 a Nasus.

Alright, still doesn't excuse the fact that he can literally build full tank and hit harder than any fed assassin ever would. Doesn't excuse the fact that he literally cannot lose lane.
