| Matchup | Threat | Games | WR | Gold @ 15 | Gold Diff | Tips | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
![]() Garen | Very Hard | 195 | 47% | -447 | -1223 | This is a major counter at all stages of the game. Your only real window to fight is after level 7 with Lethal Tempo, if he uses his Q on you while you are near full health. A crucial tip is to use your ultimate *before* he silences you if you are in his lethal range, as you won't be able to cast it otherwise. | |
Skill Priority![]() Q Siphoning Strike Nasus strikes his foe, dealing damage and increasing the power of his future Siphoning Strikes if he slays his target. ![]() W Wither Nasus ages an enemy champion, decelerating their Move Speed and Attack Speed over time. ![]() E Spirit Fire Nasus unleashes a spirit flame at a location, dealing damage and reducing the Armor of enemies who stand on it. 46.6% WR 161 Matches Summoner Spells![]() ![]() 51.3% WR 76 Matches Skill Order![]() Siphoning Strike Nasus strikes his foe, dealing damage and increasing the power of his future Siphoning Strikes if he slays his target. 1 3 5 7 9 ![]() Wither Nasus ages an enemy champion, decelerating their Move Speed and Attack Speed over time. 4 8 10 12 13 ![]() Spirit Fire Nasus unleashes a spirit flame at a location, dealing damage and reducing the Armor of enemies who stand on it. 2 14 15 ![]() Fury of the Sands Nasus unleashes a mighty sandstorm that batters nearby enemies. While the storm rages, he gains increased Health, Attack Range, damages nearby enemies, has a reduced cooldown on Siphoning Strike, and gains bonus Armor and Magic Resistance. 6 11 16 Nasus vs Garen Runes![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 42.2% WR64 Matches Starting Items![]() ![]() ![]() 41.3% WR 63 Matches Core Items![]() ![]() ![]() 28.6% WR 7 Matches 4th Item Options![]() 64.3% WR14 Matches ![]() 30.8% WR13 Matches ![]() 40.0% WR10 Matches 5th Item Options![]() 42.9% WR7 Matches ![]() 71.4% WR7 Matches ![]() 6th Item Options![]() 33.3% WR3 Matches ![]() 50.0% WR2 Matches ![]() 100.0% WR1 Matches Laning Phase (@15 min)Gold Diff-447 CS Diff-10 XP Diff-116 Ally Ganks1.34 Enemy Ganks0.96 End of GameTotal Gold Diff-1,223 Total CS Diff-20 Split Push | |||||||
![]() Aatrox | Very Hard | 136 | 50% | -696 | -456 | Whole matchup is about dodging all of his abilities pre-6, you outscale Aatrox very quickly post 6 and post sheen | |
![]() Ambessa | Very Hard | 113 | 49% | -608 | -988 | š¬ No tips yet ā Be the first to add a tip! | |
![]() Singed | Very Hard | 110 | 53% | -425 | -188 | Singed will always have the advantage in this matchup due to his various playstyles, which usually involve proxying after the first few waves. Your goal is to stack as much as possible and not try to chase him down unless there is a clear kill opportunity. | |
![]() DrMundo | Not Favored | 108 | 56% | -335 | +5 | This is a very easy matchup. Take Lethal Tempo and focus on stacking as much as you can. Your first purchases should be Ionian Boots of Lucidity and Sheen to maximize your stacking potential. | |
![]() Fiora | Very Hard | 105 | 56% | -490 | -1042 | This is an extremely difficult matchup, often worth dodging in high ELO. If you play it, your goal is to stack until you have Sheen. Sidestepping her W is a lane-winning move. You must play around her vitals; try not to stand in the direction they spawn, and if she all-ins you, position yourself against a wall to block access to a vital. | |
![]() Jax | Very Hard | 103 | 41% | -433 | -1019 | The aery approach similar to Darius is very effective in this matchup although the standard fleet setup is fine. Go Aery scorch, biscuit delivery, manaflow band, Doran's Ring, and start your e. Ward the bush near you and walk with your wave level 1 to make sure he cant zone you from xp. Last hit the minions with your e and try to hit him as well. Keep spamming your e on him and space his q range. Get him low enough that he can't jump on you and then start free stacking. | |
![]() Darius | Hard | 97 | 55% | -353 | -113 | Go Aery, scorch,biscuit delivery and start e. Farm minions and poke darius with every e you use. Try to use it when your manaflow band is up. Put three points into your e and then max q. Don't play for stacks in this lane. Play to poke him down and have lane and wave control. Do not get frozen on early game. Be careful of his level 1 cheese. | |
