How to Play vs NASUS, a guide to make NA great again.
To all my fellow silver and bronze players crying, NASUS IS SO OVERPOWERED JUNGLE WHY DON'T YOU GANK EVER!!!
This guide goes out to you. On the back foot of my recent 14-day suspension of this account, I'd like to enlighten all of you wonderful folk about how to fight and deal with a Nasus. Because my last game on this account had a Nasus that went 3/0 into a Darius, because of the Darius' own ignorance of the situation.
But Tiga, wouldn't Darius just steam roll the Nasus all game? That's a terrible lane for Nasus! Think of the fact that Darius can shred him with bleed stacks and just get an easy lead on the Nasus for the whole game!
Well my good friends, that's how this lane SHOULD go! However, Silver players are forced into playing this game with what some people call a MOUSE. This diabolical plot by Riot Video Games to make silver players actually play the game is very sad, because at the end of the day, your average silver play doesn't have any hands! Much less a thought process. Alas, the Darius never stood a chance. He just walked into lane, grunted his silver player emote, and said me darius - me push lane. So there is was, Nasus sitting under his own tower, getting about 20 stacks a minute, while Darius kept hitting the wave and keeping it frozen under Nasus' own tower.
What is a jungler to do? A player who can't even learn to manage the minion wave can't hardly learn to play the game properly enough to coordinate a DIVE on an enemy. Even if the jungle is up 3 levels on the enemy jungle, Darius has basically handed the game to the Nasus on a SILVER platter! (Some wonder if it 's irony or genius that this pun works. I say that it's sheer luck. Thank you for that Riot.) So there we are, Forfeiting the game at 20 mins, all because a SINGLE player can't learn or listen to his team about how to properly control a minion wave and ends up single-handedly losing the game for the rest of the team as Nasus proceeds to 1v5 at 20 minutes with his 3 items and over 400 stacks.
Nerf Silver Players, I know you're all the balance team, but you still have the power.
What should have occurred. Darius has a brain, pulls the wave level 1, lets it slow push to him, jungler arrives top lane at level 3. Proceed to gank Nasus. Nasus dies, go back to the freeze and repeat the gank when Nasus inevitably teleports back to lane. Nasus dies again, proceed to hard push the wave into tower and Darius can walk around the lane to the bush between towers. Darius and jungle kill Nasus for a third time, Nasus concedes that better jungle in fact should win, and goes AFK. He never wants to play Nasus again.
GGWP summoners, good luck on the rift.
