Although it has a very cliché design at first glance, it can become one of the troublesome characters of the late stages thanks to the load shedding option it has. Especially when he is weak in the early stage and gets stronger later, this situation of being “trouble” makes it more realistic.
Nasus, who has become very dangerous in the hands of someone who plays well, although he can’t find a big place in terms of meta, is ready and ready to dominate the game from the middle stage with the loads he has accumulated, if he can get over his lowness in the early stage.
Nasus CTs: Strong opponents against Nasus
- Kennen
- Teemo
- Vayne
- Trundle
- Warwick
The biggest problem for Nasus is definitely range, although the character has an ability to burn their opponents, characters who can keep their range are a lot of trouble, especially in the early stages. In addition, characters that can enter long-term battles like himself, lifesteal, etc. They can outdo the scenarios.
All the abilities of Nasus, which can also age a champion:
- Passive / Spirit Eater: Nasus drains his opponent’s soul energy, gaining bonus lifesteal
- Q / Exploitation Strike: Nasus slams his opponent, dealing damage and increasing the power of subsequent Exploitation Strikes if the target dies.
- W / Decay: Nasus ages an enemy champion, reducing the target’s movement and attack speed over time
- E / Spirit Fire: Nasus sends Spirit Fire to an area, dealing damage to enemies in the area and reducing their Armor.
- R / Fury of the Sands: Nasus unleashes a powerful sandstorm that crushes nearby enemies. As the storm rages, Nasus gains bonus health and attack range, dealing damage to nearby enemies, gaining a reduced cooldown on Drain Strike, and gaining both bonus armor and magic resist.
Lord of the Sands Nasus’s strengths and weaknesses:
Powerful features of Nasus:
- Being able to speak his power from the middle phase of the game
- Has a limit of damage potential
- Ability to play independently of his team
Nasus’ true potential is revealed as a result of the charges he takes with his Q ability. Since the character’s basic damage potential is based on his Q ability, the charges you start to accumulate in the early phase start to bear fruit from the middle phase of the game. That’s when your explosive power will be unleashed, especially since your goal is to play late in the game.
Nasus weak features:
- Too weak in lane at early stage
- Very weak against Haras
- Disadvantaged against ranged characters
Since stacking builds up the character’s basic power potential, the lack of these stacks in the early phase puts the character in a lot of trouble. Especially the low potential in the early phase and the weakness against ranged characters can make the lane phase quite difficult. Although the character manages to get stronger from the middle stages of the game, this strengthening will not be of much use if Nasus can be avoided.
How to play Nasus in LoL? Gameplay tips:
- Nasus is a weak character in the early stages so it’s good to play defensively
- Striking the minions with the Q ability is the main strengthening method of the character. That’s why you need to use his Q skill carefully and not miss any minions.
- Nasus is a character that starts to get stronger from the middle stage. So while it’s important to kill opponents, it’s more important to load up on minions.
Nasus is a character based entirely on accumulating loads. While killing opponents is important, focusing entirely on stacking in the early phase will be a move that pays off in the late phases. Of course, it’s also useful to kill minions carefully. That’s why you need to have a safe early stage, collect as much as possible and show your strength in the late game.
How to play against Nasus, how to beat Nasus?
- Although Nasus is weak in the early phase, he starts to get stronger from the middle phase, so you need to prevent his stacking as much as you can.
- Although Nasus is weak for a while, he can start to turn the battles upside down after getting items. That’s why you need to play cautiously
- Keeping your range is one of the best plays against Nasus. As long as you can keep your range you will be strong against Nasus
Nasus is a character that gets stronger from the middle stage. That’s why you need to prevent it from gaining loads in the top lane as much as you can. Characters who can fight using their range, in particular, prevent Nasus from accumulating charges, as well as making it easier to drop from the game. Preventing Nasus from accumulating will be the best way to lower the character’s functionality. Especially if you manage to prevent it until the middle stages, you have a high probability of winning even before the late stages of the game.
