Unbalanced kit with lifesteal paired with stacks. Damage items are not even fully necessary on this champion. Please nerf .

nasus is so easy to counter... why waste time on this? ;^)

Just curious and being a relatively new player a decent amount of nasuses can you elaborate on the ways to counter him? I've heard to just harass him and stop him from getting stacks. What else?

and lol just saw the poll. I'm not sure what its trying to accomplish might as well have left that out.

The main thing is to keep him from farming too much. If he can't reach his mid game then he'll not end up being too useful for his team. If you're jungler is on top of things he'll put extra pressure on him to keep him from afk farming. Try picking people who can bully him hard. If he does manage to farm up, mainly focus on keeping him from splitpushing, and when team fights happen, try to keep him away from your carries. If he ults, don't even bother. Just do your best to disengage and pull away from him. Also, don't stand in the big purple circle.

"easy to counter" isn't necessarily a valid argument. You're going to run into him eventually in blind pick, you can't just throw your arms in the air as soon as the match starts and call gg, because at the end of the day, this is still a video game.

Not that I am saying Nasus should be nerfed.

You can't exactly balance around blind pick, considering how many champions/archtypes are balanced around their counters.

It might be a bit frustrating to be matched against a Nasus in blind pick as a champion who really isn't suited for fighting him, but that's the risk you run in blind pick.

Have my downvote. Kalista Zed Tryndamere all have higher damage than Nasus late game, and they don't have to suffer a weak early game or play farmville for 30 minutes straight to get there.

And yes, you build lifesteal on all 3.

Your mid lane and top lane lost, your jungler fed, and your bot lane went even. Nasus wasn't really an issue that match.

Anyways, your main issue with Nasus that game was the fact that nobody besides Riven had penetration, which made it far harder than necessary to kill Nasus. Without penetration, you didn't really deal any damage to the tank.

Also, how come you didn't just send your Master Yi to kill Nasus? He's immune to Wither, he deals true damage (and he would have magic damage too if he built Devourer), and his DPS is too high for Nasus to heal through. If Yi had Ninja Tabi as well, he shouldn't have had any issues dueling or splitpushing against him (especially if he used Meditate to block a Q)
