This guide will cover how to jungle with Nasus and to do it quickly! Nasus is a champ that you rarely to never see jungle. His jungle capabilities are actually quite good. He is a quick jungler and can sustain really well. He also has some really nice ganks with Wither.

The enigmatic creature known as Nasus came to the League from a faraway world, and served as part of a vast and learned desert empire. There he was a respected and enlightened individual, having been made the Keeper of the Great Library. However, he was also part of a race of animalistic creatures that served as the rulers and protectors of the people. Unfortunately, there were others of his kind that believed they were more than protectors. They were under the egotistical delusion that they had ascended to become gods. War on Nasus's world was never more than a breath away, as these deluded others sought to enslave the people and establish a totalitarian sovereignty. In the midst of a heated battle, just as Nasus was about to slay his treacherous brother Renekton, he was pulled through the cosmos to a summoning circle in Runeterra.

At first angered that he had been taken just as he was about to cripple the enemies of his people, Nasus' advanced intellect won out when he heard the pleas of mercy from the summoners. He learned that Runeterra was also filled with its own brand of injustice. This danger was no less threatening than what he had fought against at home, and champions were needed to protect the people of this world. Heeding the call, Nasus chose to take his place in the League of Legends, knowing that his brothers and sisters would carry on the fight back home. These days, he is the Curator of the Sands, feeling most at home in the crumbling ruins of the Shurima Desert. However, recent disturbing news has reached the Keeper's ears - rumors that perhaps his brother had not in fact been left behind. If this were the case, the destruction of Renekton would quickly become Nasus' main priority, before this world too faces the threads of his brother's forked-tongue and endless ambition.

The Curator of the Sands, though contemplative, is not to be trifled with.

Finsih up your Force of Nature and then build whatever you need the most. If you want more damage build a Bloodthirster. For more survivability consider building a Banshee's Veil with/or Guardian Angel.

You can either sell your philosopher's stone or build it into Shurelya's Battlesong or Eleisa's Miracle if you chose another type of boot other than Mercury's Treads.

Smite is an amazing summoner spell to have on any team mid to late game! Smite helps secure important buffs such as Blue, Red, Dragon, and Baron! Just that alone makes Smite worth using on EVERY jungler.

Not only is it very useful for securing buffs, it is also useful for speeding up your jungle exponentially!

These are the runes that I like to use when I am playing Nasus jungle or not. The armor pen allows you to blow threw the jungle with no problem at all. The armor and magic resist are so you take less damage during jungling and ganking early game.
