Nasus Guide
AP Nasus-Call me crazy again!
No, this build is deff troll worthy.
But its simply an ironic idea that makes sense on paper, but in reality would never hold in a ranked game.
You could run this in a randoms 5's for lol's and watch people laugh at you but your only offense with ulti down is spirit fire and that's only up every 11 secs.
If you can only fight with your ult up, then you are downright worthless to your team.
And may I remind you that no matter how high you push the percent ratio on your ult, it caps at 240 or so dmg per sec making ap simply not worth the itemizing just to get it that high.
So out of all of this you have a sole S.F. that burns a wave of minions might get a burst off of a squishy and loses you the essential last hits to make his q hurt.
There are reasons riot made annie and ryze and anivia, leave the ap to them and make nasus work the way he's supposed to.
Now this is just a chaos build it's different to try random things with champs that can be played different ways. Something like DPS Kassadin or DPS Janna not truly Viable but its always fun to throw a curve ball at your opponents.

Awesome. I actually played him very similarly to this last week, when our team was seriously lacking AP, and we had another "tanky" champion. Unrefined as it was, it worked fairly well. Definitely going to have to try your build out at some point. +1
by the way, ever tried AP Miss Fortune? Such a silly build XD.
I would love too!!!!!!!!!!!!! holy **** I may just make a whole guide on that! and we should play some time hook me up in game?
Well the question is why do you play him as AP. I mean I also like new crazy builds and try to find new tactics with champs and I would like to see tank/AP mixups far more often. The problem is you even noted it: Your AP boost is more or less far less effective than the usual mage get out of it just because of you limited AP abilitis.
So Isn't it better to boost the mages with some tank stuff instead doing the other way arround?
The only real advantage I would see is that nobody expect it and people often ignore you first or concentrate more on Armor than on MR but still on higher ELO people are not dumb enough to get this work.
I mean you'll lose 1v1 against a AP mage if he is not a completly noob, OOM, or damaged. In team fights you'll be as squishy as your AD/AP carries. At least when you Ult. is on CD. Your big Push qualities are more or less gimped (besides Sheen). You don't get much out of your passive. etc. etc. just too much minus and too less plus. However one big plus: Its fun :D
Why not..its fun and just random. The other team never expects it and when you rape their *** they feel so bad....

I tried this build, scores were as follows
10-7-22
13-13-20
6-8-3
I just don't find this build as viable as other ways. You talk a lot about how q hits really hard with lichbane. If that is what you want, I recommend a crit build. I have 1v5 and killed all of them with crits, including 2 people I could 1shot with Q. THAT is real power. BTW that game was 31-3-8 with over 200 additional damage from last hitting on Q.
All of my other points have been said by other people, and I'm sure you don't want to hear them again.
All of this aside, keep experimenting and giving us good things like your other two posts- they are both very good =)
