nasus

As an adc main, i find trouble playing against nasus as my team just goes afk in the first 5 minutes or the laner thats up against him just ends up 0/8 i still don't fucking get how you're supposed to counter a 1k stack nasus as draven, he can slow you so you can't kite, he can flash Q your ass and boom he just waits 2 seconds to stack on you too. Why the fuck did riot buff a fun sucking champion anyway.

Riot didn’t even buff nasus in the “correct” spot anyways. He can still get beaten up hard early and he is still very kiteable.

If anything I think you should work on how to kite him in this current state. Ask your teammates to CC him for you, ask your support to go something like leona in champ select or even tahm. Just a couple of suggestions, but the main thing is to adapt and find a strategy that works for you.

And btw this is from a nasus main who has played nasus after this buff, everything that I said about his weaknesses are true, don’t deny his weaknesses just because he can sometimes get onto you. And btw he is a juggernaut, which the definition of a juggernaut is literally the champ that kills the fuck out of you if you get in melee range of it. I’m not hating you or anything, I wish the best of luck to you in your future games against a nasus. and I know what it feels like to get one shot or two shot by nasus when you are a squishy champ, I know the pain too lol

his W makes him very kiteable?? mate draven has no dashes the only way for draven to beat him is if he has sums.

If I remember correctly, Draven has an MS boost in his kit, and he also builds stuff like stormrazor and he also has an ability that disrupts/knocks up enemies. And usually Draven will fight a nasus when the Draven has his supp or his other teammates.

W is a very giant slow yes, but any QSS can remove it, abilities can be cast on the nasus to stop him from reaching the target, and the slow only affects one enemy so another carry can easily engage and win the fight or other champs can CC nasus with almost no threat because nasus wasted his slow.

Don’t act so salty jeez, I was suggesting some stuff that I thought was helpful.

draven with stormrazor is trash and yes he has a MS ability in his kit which nasus won't give 2 shits about as he can just fucking slow me

Well then it was your fault for being out of position and making it easy for nasus to catch you. Next time stay with your team and either kill nasus before your team contests an objective or CC chain nasus so he can’t do anything in the fight.

Fighting a fed nasus or mid game (not fed) nasus will be far easier if you, as the squishy champ, doesn’t try to fight him alone. If you are having trouble with the nasus slow, buy a item 3140 in the beginning of the mid game phase. ask your support to go tahm and stay with him when you try to fight nasus, that way tahm can eat you and get you to safety when yo are slowed and he isn’t, but if tahm is slowed you have your MS ability the MS boost from heal and flash to still get away.

What I am saying is to never fight nasus in a 1v1 scenario if you are the squishy ADC or APC. The only exception to this is if you are a fed Vayne. Vayne shreds nasus hard with bork and rageblade, and her q during her ult makes her go invisibl, which makes it harder for nasus to Q her. And she does have her e to easily kite the nasus if he wastes flash or ghost to try and engage on the Vayne.

about my team, i mostly am filled with god damn 0/9/0 top laners which make nasus even more of a cancerious champ

Yeah, I just had a game today as nasus where I popped the fuck off and was 15/0 at the 20 min mark.

At the end of the around 35 min game I had roughly 800 stacks lol. Sad part was that I got an A+ because I spent most of time killing instead of farming more lol

I think you are the first person to actually appreciate what I said about nasus lol. Usually they say “bUT NaSuS iS BrOkEn” and proceed to deny what I say even though I might have some weight in my argument because I main nasus and experience his weaknesses very often.

Thanks for listening to what I had to say!
