Am I the only one who thinks Nasus is a problem right now?

If anyone could link me a video explaining a sure way to prevent him from reaching 300 stacks by 20 minutes, that would be greatly appreciated. From what I've experienced, even with a perfect freeze at your tower, the wave will always push back to the enemy tower allowing Nasus to perform his own freeze and gain stacks. This isn't as much as a problem with Veigar, as I've noticed the towers are MUCH close together in mid then in top.

shutting him down early has also proven to be problematic for me, as his wither prevents any hope of pursuing an all in. I'm assuming pros have a way to deal with him that I haven't found yet. Thanks!

In 20 min you already know which team wins. I haven't seen Nasus leading his team to the victory since season 8.

Last I recall, the way to beat nasus isn't to beat nasus... it's to push him in hard and get shit done while he's still farming. The earlier you end the game the better... so roam, gank, and force pressure and objectives asap. The hope is to have such a lead by the time nasus begins mattering that he doesn't matter enough.

Nasus is a polarizing champion. Either you play champions who can run circles around him and from your perspective he's useless garbage that cant hit anything. Or You play immobile, non-slippery, non-overloaded champions, and Nasus is severely overpowered from your perspective. In just about every way imaginable.

Yeh I dunno... I find that all Nasus does is occasionally make those rare/fun games that go past 40 minutes unfun. 4/5 games seem to end one way or the other before he does much of anything. He's like a crappy melee Veigar impact wise.

he scales a bit too quick but he's otherwise fine.

i play nasus as a one trick, the easiest way to counter him is having his team be bad. to explain nasus needs a team that doesnt int for the first 20 mins of the game, if his team can just stay equal to the enemy team nasus will be a monster. but usually nasus just gets kited as he is an immobile champ. they should buff nasus because he just gets CC'd or kited out of existence in team fights.
