Nasus in high elo

Hello lads Im a nasus otp , a challenger in eune by only playing nasus literally , I switched the same account to euw because achieving chall in eune didn't feed my satisfaction im not here to brag btw, anyway im here to talk about Nasus in high elo ... its quite annoying how 100% u will get camped in each single game .. hey I didn't mention the hard matchup on top im pretty sure any nasus player can deal with bullies if it was just a one on one lane .. but when they shove hard and the jungle comes in to dive u its get abit obnoxious because he will wait your tp to kill u again and if u don't tp u will lose two waves .. its all fine I can deal with that cuz I give room to my jungler to do something on other lanes .. I can split all day and be a powerhouse even with this camp , when the mid game comes oh god u become unstoppable with tri/iceborn and two items thats where he shines the most , u split top and take what u want ... but when late game comes oh god u r so useless .. I mean holy I didn't feel that useless in quite tbh its just sad how a 1300g item just takes half your value with a proper support Nasus cant team fight .. a thresh chain hook u while the cait gun u down with bunch of traps or any adc with a support , sometimes a festival happens on top lane .. even if u got some kills it won't give u much power tbh it will just slow your powerspike down .. Imagine if u lost that 2-3min festival on top u will get so behind , I started playing kled and oh lord its so east to get back to the game , win lane and do 1v2s if u got ahead in lane ...while playing nasus needs so much more thinking and planning one mistake can screw your whole lane , im hoping for a change for nasus like halve or remove the E shred but when he ults give his Qs an extra 25% true or physical damage or make the cd halved so he relies on Q completely and stops the E max ones because tbh why play nasus when u don't stack ? Play illaoi trundle darius or any tanky splitpusher that does more than nasus... I think the main reason why I didn't enjoy nasus that much the past month is lastwhisper existing with such a cheap price , I wish riot creates item for tanks which got like 25% reduce physical or magic damage , like give us some real durability items .. I wanna feel im that season 4 nasus all over again.

If you have issues getting camped, you should try the Quasas build.

You get item 1056 item 1056 item 2033 item 3512 and max E

The idea is maxing E lets you outpush your opponent and get lane pressure. Quas is a ex-LCS top laner and he got 2 accounts in top 10 challenger with this build.

Frankly, I'd rather have the E shred apply to enemies hit by the initial burst instead of the stupid thing it currently does where it only shreds flat armor if they're in the circle.

Make it %shred too and he'd be fucking golden.

item 3033 is a pain in the ass for Nasus.

Pretty much EVERYONE counters him if they're AD (most top laners are), it just offers too much leverage against him

How can you complain about doing nothing on late game, if you are saying that his powerspike is on mid game??

I mean right now in the current meta only 10-15% of the games are more than 35 minutes, this is not Korea my friend.

You should take first tower on top, get ahead and then bring that powerspike into more towers, objectives and stuff... Like other top laners will do.

Plus you are saying that last whisper is too strong (hehe xd, now i remember that maokai that took 50% of my heslth with one combo even next to my janna and i dealt no dmg to him, nice tf), man carry is the weakest role roghr now, if a cait destroys you is cuz you are misspositioned in that tf or the enemy bot lane stomped hard the game, in wich case as nasus you cant do anything.

There really doesn't seem to be anything you can buy late game as nasus to help deal with the excessive damage.

Add an extra armor item into your full build late and you don't even feel it %damage reduction like alistars ult would change that
