Hi ^^

Here's some constructive criticism.

1) Your runes are mostly fine. I'm concerned about the Marks of Strength and Seals of Evasion though. There are better runes out there for Nasus.

2) While I can see that you're interested in Nasus' mana problems, Tear of the Goddess and Manamune are not the way to fix them. An early philosopher's stone is fine, but Tear is a bit silly.

3) You should build up resistances (such as armour and magic resist) before you build warmog's armour.

4) You have more than 6 final items in your Purchase Order.

5) Trinity Force is a must on off-tank Nasus. You've said this is an off-tank build - thus you want to be tanky DPS. You'd be more of an off-tank with Triforce.

6) Your Mastery Tree is... unique. There's a reason why no one goes 0/25/5 - because it's a tad silly. If you want defense, and utility go 0/15/15. Or 0/21/9.

7) "Manamune gives Nasus the ability to have an almost unlimited amount of mana so he can spam his abilities." The problem with this statement is that you buy no cooldown reduction items, so Nasus can't spam his abilities as much as you claim. Without Frozen Heart or Spirit Visage or whatever, his cooldowns are still high.

8) "Since I dont typically go for Ninja tabi in sacrafice for more tencaity against all CC and the starting magic resist the dodge runes are a must because any well built enemy team SHOULD have melee heroes and a dodge is the best defense since a dodge means no damage at all." This is not a good reason to specify in dodge runes and dodge mastery points. Unless you can dodge like a boss (ie Jax and to a lesser degree, Sivir), dodge runes are pretty useless.

9) "Instead buff your spirit fire since AP is never used on Nasus thus spirit fire gets no boosts other than its levels." This is not a good reason to level up Spirit Fire. No one stands in SF when it is cast. It is virtually a useless move - Morgana's Tormented Shadow or Lux's bubble do more damage at level 1 than SF at final level due to the fact that no one steps in SF.

10) I don't mind Heal as a Summoner Spell, but like Clarity it lacks oompf end game. It's just not useful at the end, and other spells like Teleport, Ghost, Flash and Exhaust are much better on Nasus.

I would also recommend turing on "comment to vote" so that the people who downvote are commenting to give you their reasons for doing so.

Goodluck ^^
