Pre 6, yes, Post 6, no. If Nasus has his ultimate, nearly no other jungler can fight him.


They can if they've already punched his face in a bunch of times before then. Lee Sin would just camp him.

Well, then you have to work with your team. You have one of the strongest slows in the game, use it wisely to hold enemies in place until your team arrives and kills them.

Every Nasus is team reliant.

wung it with lifesteal and armorpen runes.

I guess that was wrong, but still. It seemed like no matter what runes I did he'd be slow without spamming Spirit Fire for dear life.

Also the speed was not anywhere near the problem, as Im used to slow junglers (I main Volibear jungle)

It was the instant moral drop his very existence puts on your team. And the fact that everyone expects a jungler to baby sit their lane.

It would have worked with a team that knew what they were doing and not feeding. not soloq material


if by slow you mean shen slow (i'll just go afk for 20 minutes and come back and still be fighting red buff) then idk what you're doing, but it's wrong. Last time I jungled him you only needed 1 SF per like, two camps (Blue > SF Wolves > SF Wraiths > SF Red, gank/go back, continue jungling and you shouldn't really need SF any more)

edit:

also not to be harsh but nicknamemy has a history of giving really bad advice so I wouldn't really listen to him in this either, lol.

Problem with that is you're trading the more readily available creeps of top lane for safety. But that is an illusion, as proven when Vi walked into my jungle with Gangplank and instant killed me because they were already fed. XD

He's really no safer in the jungle, cause any try-hard jungler can just walk in and make sure he does nothing.


This is why you use Nasus to counterpick passive junglers.

Which doesn't work because everyone is aggressive as **** lol.'

imo Nasus counters Xin Tryn and Yi, but that's about it :p

Just facked a nocturne, his ganks were always ****blocked (Q+W to bypass ***shield). Plus a triple kill. Built Infinity Edge for kicks, it was won anyway :p

I went Mercury's Treads, Infinity Edge, Phantom Dancer, Warmog's Armor, Iceborn Gauntlet and Youmuu's Ghostblade.

40% CDR with runes/masteries and 78~ % crit chance with runes. 260% crit damage. Iceborn for tankiness and CDR and slow and extra Q damage.

Eh

Nasus has no gap closers

Doesn't matter if he has a good clear time or has good ganks

He has no proper initiate which is what most junglers need to have.

Nasus just gets kited all day and that's why he's not as good as other junglers. Same reason why Udyr fell out of play.

His W isn't an instant catchup meaning enemies can react accordingly.

He's pretty much a worse Karthus. You can just disengage once he ults and kite him in teamfights.
That's why he's not as good of a champ.

His top lane is definitely better.

Wait wat.

As an AD main, my opinion of Nasus in any role can pretty much be summed up as Cleanse / Quicksilver Sash = gg.
