Please rework Nasus.

He's awful. No champion that absolutely basic should have a winrate above 50%. I swear to God, he's less complicated than Garen. "He has to farm his q." That's super complex, with a cooldown of four seconds (before cdr) and a damage bonus of 110 (plus 100 at 15 minutes, barring downs syndrome). You can't poke him, because his passive precludes that option being viable. You can't outright fight him without dramatically outearning a champion built around outfarming you (again, barring downs syndrome). Ganking him is a nightmare. He has the strongest slow in the game, hands down, and 90% of them take ghost. On top of that, he hits six, he has an ultimate that basically renders melee junglers and tops incapable of fighting him unless they've itemized against magic damage, something that fucks them when he simply qs them to death while they're subject to the strongest slow in the game on a cooldown that's laughable at best. You can't slow his damage down, as it's entirely based on said nonexistant cooldown. His q can't be stopped from farming, as it buffs itself, making an already impossible to fuck up task less possible to fuck up. Long story short, he corrects for bad playing, and generally carries his sub-par summoner to victory, simply by principle of his theoretically "late game" strength hitting about 25 minutes in due to repeated buffs to the strength of his q and the stacks gained through it. He's not fun to play against, generally making for the most frustrating games ever due to it becoming a shitty farm match top against an intractable, unpokable, poorly designed mess of a champion across the ring from you. He's straight up toxic.

farm his Q without everyone on the map hellbent on stopping you

after achieving 900 stacks~... I have discovered that nasus is not the carry type since you cant 1 shot ANYBODY with 900 stacks and it will be down for another 3~4 seconds you are so easy to peel away before it's up again...

imo nasus is just a generic tank once late game team fight starts he shines in mid game

contrary to what everyone else may tell you, bring it into late game against nasus I dont mean 2 hours in when he has 2400 stacks but just late game

May I ask who you are playing against him?

Two Nasus mains have spoken. And we learned that Silver III is below the threshold for being awful at farming.
