I hate nasus so much but only because of his passive lifesteal. I think the q buffs are fine since games are ending faster.

What I find problematic about him (or about his best friend Yorick) is that no matter what you do in lane, they will ALWAYS become big in mid-game. As Riven, I can kill Nasus twice in lane pre-6 -- he then just stacks under tower and is STILL a monster in mid-game. At that point, you need the entire team to play around him (and his R), and many teams are just too uncoordinated to do that. You then basically have to wait until late and pray to God that you have a tank buster like a fed Vayne on your team. What bugs me, too, is that his kit is so braindead and he still stomps.

Because it is only easy to stack if you let him stack and EVERY ADC CAN KILL HIM EASILY, like he is not good he is shit all he can do is stomp people who have no clue how to play lane.

He is designed to SURVIVE in lane with Passive lifesteal and he also has his ultimate for turret dives and ganks to make stopping his scaling super difficult these abilities were not given to him for no reason they were originated with the mindset of nasus being a late game champion who is a ticking time bomb for the enemy team putting a global target on his back making it a PRIORITY to stall his late game NASUS needed to survive so he can Q stack all game efficiently and just become a raid boss. When you remove the late game and make him EARLY/MID then the survivability takes him over the top.

What if RIOT gave Renekton late game Scaling even though he is designed for the early game and they didn't change anything about his Dominant lane phase and early game damage to compensate for the change he would be ridiculous because The same concept applies here but nasus is designed for late game you cant mess with the design of champions without using a full process of thought and understanding of why the champion is designed that way.
