ftn Rumble wouldn't be the best of ideas I think. The AoE as well as chances not to hit the harpoons will leave you gankable. Very gankable. The AoE will slowly melt down the enemy minions, and the harpoons, if missed and hitting a minion will also push your lane.

I guess there's a positive as well as negative to Rumble as a counter. You can keep him from farming (partially anyway), but you're forced to be offensive as hell, without proper escape if flash is on CD. You're forced to semi-hunt Nasus away from the minions, at which point he can slow you, and the jungler will rape you to smitherines.

The question is rather... What does not counter nasus solotop :p

I prefer some1 which plays "full-engage" style. Where every time he uses Q to last hit a minion u go full engage on him and force him to use wither. The next time he goes to last hit, u kill him.
Gap-closers are really nice since they allow u to last hit and completely zone him at the same time, that or a form of opportunity to farm ranged(olaf's axe as an example).
Ty MM and Blood for the sigs :3 | Rammus is comming back - heard it here first!

Best way to counter him solo top is just some champ who can burst him from a distance easily.

Even Karma beats him honestly...

He's far, far better in the jungle now. I have foretold this a while ago and nobody believed me.

Garen and Caitlyn. Both have great harass and can deal decent damage. Caitlyn can lay traps down to stop him for a second, Garen has his silence/spin-to-win. I went 1v1 against Nasus and destroyed him as Riven. You just have to be aggressive and watch his CS. If you shut him down early he'll be forced to jungle/abandon his lane.
