Laning against Nasus is like babysiting a 4 year old
Leave either of them alone for 5 seconds and some really bad crap happens

nasus I need to back, I'll be back in just a second, don't touch anything
(Returns)
look brother I have all these stacks!
WHAT DID I TELL YOU
( i can see why renekton hates nasus now)
Why do I even bother with either of you
bother* even Azir can't spell
That's cause obviously
is the best speller in league
"Azir! Look! I have all these stacks!"
"RENEKTON!"
"What!?"
"I said to watch Nasus while I was away!"
"I swear to Xerath, I backed for five seconds and that happened."
"Great,now look what you've done. Now hes killing Teemo."
"DIE SCUM. Yeah! I got more stacks!"
"You really need to put him in a daycare..."

Ekko, that you ?
Except the four year old doesn't try to kill you.
Usually.
Usually, neither does the Nasus. How we still don't have a Farmer Nasus skin, I will never know.

I like to fight people for intimidation factor, once they realize the true damage of the stack, they start to back off.
Usually only works with 60 ish+ stacks though Below that you better start farming.

As Nasus, I fight my lane opponent under two circumstances:
As Nasus, I fight my lane opponent under two circumstances:
- My jungler is coming to gank, and I want them focused on me so that they don't notice. Most people seem to fall for it.
- I'm between levels 9-11, have a few finished items, and I can look at my opponent and say, "Sorry, but I'm not afraid of you anymore. Prepare for the pimp cane."
During the lower levels I let them hit me all they want as long as they're in the minion wave. When I get ~60+ stacks I'll start autoing/q'ing them if they come close because i run 20% CDR runes making my q cd pretty low. Once I start pushing them back they start to back off and never come close.
I love it.
I only fight them if they are being annoying and harrasing me during my stack.
If I have a few stacks, a couple good whacks gets them to fuck off for a while.
Nasus in overalls with a wheat thing in his mouth and a pitchfork for a cane... RITO PLS.
ya and it starts to smell
ya and it starts to smell
XD nice
nasus is the dumbest champ in game.
rework this stupid corn shucker
Jokes aside, seriously, sometimes you're better off letting him farm and pushing that game into a 4v5, Nasus can't carry a whole losing team, even on 1000 stacks.
i've seen that happen....SO many times.
Yes Nasus really isn't that strong late game That's because Nasus is a mid game champion... not a late game champion (unless he is against a team which for some reason can't kite him.. then yes he is a late game champion) The reason he falls off late game is because the carries damage increase faster then his defense so he dies faster and well doesn't matter how much Q damage you have if you aren't able to use it And almost all Carries have some sort of either CC or mobility to deal with Nasus not to mention the support and all the other people protecting the carry
Though of course Nasus can be pretty good at dealing with Tanks and bruisers who dive into his team as he has decent damage to deal with them and he doesn't really need to be afraid of their CC/damage And of course it also helps if Nasus has a tank or something on his team who can initiate and lock down targets as this would help with his problem of getting kited
I had to babysit a Morgana that was just annoying af. She constantly pushed lane like a bitch, NEVER left lane, and since I was playing as Shen I had to go down and help my team a few times. If I didn't have my teleport up, RIP towers.
We won the game, but I never got her first tower. Don't really know what my jungler was doing all game but I guess he was probably getting mid fed.
Why would you pick Morgana if you want to sit top all day long? Like... yeah she pushes waves pretty fast... but she isn't the best at pushing towers and really she is best with the team supporting her allies with all of her utility
Something like Tryndamere would be a lot better... better at pushing towers still decent at pushing the wave and much better at fighting 1v1 (though of course tanks with Thornmail are hard to deal with)

Yeah, I don't know why she spent so much time pushing. It was just especially hard dealing with her since I had no wave clear, so even if she did back, she jut teleported up before I even had time to push the wave to the middle of lane. It just put a lot of pressure on me deciding wether or not I should ult down to help my team. Though one of the times I went out and ulted in front of minions just so she would root me so my allies would only get the shield.

Also, I should note I am not as well read in the lore as ShadowStorm is. I have not read all the JoJ yet - I read it on a per-champion basis when I want to know more about that particular champion. Especially if there's a lore thread about that champ, and I want to be able to follow along. So he's more in the know than I am on any particular element.
Of course, until we manage to release something that starts to prove that we can move beyond chapter 1, our ledger will continue to drip with red ink. I hope we can start turning that around asap.
ShadowStorm describes this as releasing chapter 1 - and that's a very good way of describing it. I would rather we had lots of stories in different stages - a few that have finished book 1, a few half way through book 2, and a few that are only up to chapter 1, 6, or even 15.
My personal opinion is that we've been creating our cold-opens - the bit of a TV show before the opening credits kick in. We've shown our main character, we get a glimpse of their world, we get a few character-establishing lines and then we leave it hanging. The rest of the episode hasn't turned up yet. Maybe if we take the long view, it'll all be great - we'll get the whole episode and more episodes besides! But (as Ekko proves) timeliness does matter.
I don't want to expose a champion and leave no room for future mysteries and stories - of course not - but I could read a Batman comic arc and feel that I had a full story, without precluding the opportunity for future Batman stories. I could watch an episode of Doctor Who and feel that we had a conclusion - even if I will not be surprised to see the Daleks again, or discover that clues from that episode tie into the series finale.
Maybe our plan is more of the slow establishing glimpses - but I think there's a lot of red on our ledger in terms of lore goodwill and that getting a fully formed story out in really short order would help more than most other actions would. Maybe that messes up a long term plan - my (headstrong) attitude would be to damn the consequences and do something now*. (Or as quickly as humanly possible.)
The rest of this is less about my disagreement with one or two of ShadowStorm's opinions, and more an elaboration on my position. I agree with him on other bits though! We're not going to come to blows, I hope!
Ok, so my disagreements with ShadowStorm's opinions (Woo! Opinion 'fight'!) I went through the thread identifying bits and pieces to quote, but I think my overarching difference of opinion is that I think we need, at Riot, to do some proving of our intentions. I believe that it would be very helpful if we were to take a contained story involving a champion (or more than two, ideally), in a rich, consistent, setting, and give it a beginning, middle and end.
Hey, Chromatic Eagle.
undefined I appreciate you doing this, and I hate to be that guy, but what do you disagree with ShadowStorm about? I'm not trying to start a cage match here, but for a while now many of us have felt that Riot has taken a solidarity stance regarding the retcon. Even if they acknowledge the handling of it is bad, it seems like the company stands by with its decision.
Leave either of them alone for 5 seconds and some really bad crap happens

LOL
Too long; Didn't read.
Nice
Playing this game is like babysitting 4 year olds. Gotta tell everyone what to do and what not to do, else they go complete derp.

If only it was that easy.
This also applies for the jungler.
: Pantheon, let him push in so I can gank after this red.
: Ok
*Ganks and burns
' ghost (or flash, whichever).
: GJ dude, now I'm heading back out into the jungle.
