Buff Nasus for God's sake

With all the damn reworks and buffs to champions whom did not need it, Riot gives two shiits less about old characters. I used to use Nasus in lane with no problem. Lots of new characters and buffs make him irrelevant. Have you seen anybody use this guy in ranked? Hell NO!! It takes an hour of farming to make this guy somewhat useful in a single game. Lots of people don't have that time to waste in a single game and would rather push for the fast win. You can literally bulldoze over this character's lane and the two towers with it. He has to stay in it at all times farming his Q because Riot rewards a pathetic 3 stack damage per minion kill with Q. One game I was able to stack 1200 Q. Seriously, that game was about 80 minutes long. Although it was fun Q ing champs, it took over an hour of my time to get to that place. Whats the point anyway these days. I see ADCs doing over 1200 damage just with a single critical shot while Nasus has to wait 3 seconds later to get his next one off. A one vs one fight with Nasus can take over 2 minutes. Some games I fall asleep using Nasus while stacking.

I just had two games where I was using Nasus and had trouble fighting Rengar. SERIOUSLY RENGAR!! Riot buffs Rengar for god know why. Try fighting Darius with Nasus. Not one bit even these days. Old Darius, yeah, it was even. Now Darius plows him over.

Lets fix this either way. 4 per stack instead of three. 250 minion kills to 1000 stacks still takes about 40-45 minutes. This will at least make him somewhat relevant in mid game instead of waiting to real late game for relevance. Getting 1000 stacks these days is a miracle. Most games do not last that long with all these damn new characters demolishing minions and lanes. Seeing a mirror Nasus top lane is crazy

Take 1 second off his level 5 Q. With 40 cooldown, it takes 3 seconds. Lets make that 2 seconds instead. In team fights, this guy sux. He has to cast wither and watch his teammates do all the work while he contributes really no damage. An adc gets about 6 or seven shots in before this guy can cast another Q. A 40 pecent cd 3 second wait to attack can be a very long time in a team fight. Its like watching a retard trying to do something in a team fight when all he is doing is taking punishment. Fix it!!

buff darius!!! oh no you don't want that its the same damn thing

Sure, buff Darius. He already is true damage and ignores armor like zed. Why not make his walking speed double so that he is as fast as soraka. That would make the game so much better.

that was sarcasm..... you know that right?

sure...bring back the days were he could just ignore your harass and farm that q like a madman (which he can still do to an extend),why not?why not bring back the finish in 30 mins or lose the game mentality?

He is the exact same character "Talk to the Hand," he has just fallen behind to all these new or buffed champs that Riot has been doing. Look for the last patch that Riot did to him. Its been a very long time. With his same skills, he just can't keep up anymore.

thats my point exactly.him falling behind a bit actually makes him balanced.i know im just a silver scrub but before,trying to harass a Nasus for 99% of champions wasnt effective and by the 30 min mark if your team didnt have the advantage you simply would lose the game.

Nasus needs buffs, but not for any of the reasons you stated. Any seasoned Nasus player completely understands that you have 15-20 minutes to farm and then you have to do stuff.

Farming the whole game results in a loss in upper Elo, pretty much ever time. I play Nasus in ranked as my main and I have no real issues laning against Darius. It is a tough lane, but no more or less tough than a lot of other offensive top laners.

Farming against Darius was cake until Riot had the bright idea of making him ridiculous true damage and major cs. He doesn't even need a frozen mallet to fight anymore with his slows. I can still lane with Nasus, but he is way behind new and reworked champs. He needs some tinkering to keep up with these stupid patches.

At one point, this game seemed so even about a year ago. Riot keeps fuking it up with patches not caring about characters being left behind. I see the same damn 10 characters every game I play. Seeing a summoner choose a champion like kennen, urgot, or even chogath in a blind pick game is almost Nostalgia. Remember Cho? He used to be a bully top lane. Now that guy is a chump.

Nasus in ranked? You must be crazy. Your ranked team must hate you because they probably know its gonna be a long game when you choose him and there is like 50 counters in the selection picks.

I have found a lot of players like a Nasus on the team because he still turns into a carry. I don't think the games I play are any longer or shorter than when I don't play him. They can go longer if we are losing because we need to turtle. People also have a tendency to surrender less if they have a Nasus. At least once I got out of Silver they began to understand he is a nice insurance policy if he doesn't lose his lane.

unless he gets a damage nerf and his passive lifesteal auto lane win nerf he doesnt need a buff

Pusssie HoundSep 17, 20161 votes

Absolutely not Natilie. Too many champs have been added or buffed to where Nasus is becoming more irrelevant. He is almost guaranteed to tower sit the first 20 minutes of a game Q farming under a tower because he cannot 1 vs 1 or try to q farm in an open lane. New characters like Yasuo make a joke out of his wither spell. At one point in the past, wither was an awesome spell which made opponents laning hell. Now I see a character like yasuo slide three times away with it cast on him and throw a tornado back at you for good measure. I also see Q spell getting canceled out on Yasuo with his passive armor. Really? Does that character need that armor?

yes buff his auto lane win, its not like he can basically afk farm the lane after lvl 4 because he provides so much long range damage and if you even try and get close to him he just chunks your health with q. then in mid game he already butt fucked the adc and is harrassing the mid laner because of merc treads and stormraiders + ghost and perma slow thats basically a snare at this point if you dont have any dashes allows him to ignore everyone and get into the back line with ease. i will repeat myself, unless his auto lane win gets a nerf he doesnt need a buff

but they just reworked Yorick who's older than nasus AND does everything nasus does, better.

Pusssie HoundSep 17, 20161 votes

Actually, Yorick is an easy character for Nasus to lane against. All you need at the beginning is boots and potions. The boots help you dodge that wall of a pusssy that yorick tries to trap with. You can Q farm all day against yorick as he doesn't do enough burts or stun agains Nasus. Nasus also lanes easy against llaoi where you just need boots to begin with. You just don't engage in 1v1 combat with her early. You can even Q farm those tentacles which is awesome.

Nasus doesn't get as much hp per Q as yorick. Nasus's strength comes in too much time, meanwhile yorick needs 4 last hits to make use of his passive. Nasus LATE GAME stomps on yorick, but early, no. Not even close. Yorick can get slowed, but you're going to beeline for him, and he can wall ahead or on top of himself so you have to path around it.
