greater mark of desolation
I take armor pen Marks for the extra damage u WILL do.
Greater Seal of Armor
I take flat armor Seals because it gives u an advantage early game to start farming your Q.
Greater Glyph of Cooldown Reduction
I take flat Cooldown Glyphs well, because it lessens the Cooldown on my
Siphoning Strike so i can get more farm with it.
Greater Quintessence of Experience
Greater Quintessence of Movement Speed
Then there is a choice between movement speed Quint's and Exp Quint's. the reason for these is most the time ur solo top and the movement speed helps for 1. getting away, 2. getting in to Q a minion, or 3. just having that boost of speed to chase down that enemy before he reaches his/her turret. But for the exp runes, again ur mostly solo top and u already have the exp advantage but y not level faster than everyone else.

Well most the time i start with the
Doran's Shield for the extra health and health regen. After that i normally rush a
Sheen (cause im a baddie) it helps farming ur
Siphoning Strike so u dont have to time anything, plus it does amazing damage early game. Then I go for Boots of Lucidity, well for Cooldown for his
Siphoning Strike.
Then finish off the
Trinity Force.
After that you can branch off two maybe 3 ways.
First, you could go tank, by getting a
Guardian Angel. after that item i would see which one of there players are good, good rather it being by farming or getting kills and build ur next item against him. and so and so forth, till u have a full build of course.
second, you can go directly for Attack Damage, by getting an
Infinity Edge and a Blood Thirster.
Then the third way, would build more off-tank, like building a
Frozen Mallet,
Warmog's Armor, and an
Atma's Impaler.

This is your "Bread and Butter" for all the damage you will do with Nasus. You should always last hit with your



This is your Crowd Control, one of the most annoying slows in the game. makes chasing alot easier. Also if u get ganked, you can slow one of the several enemy champs with this for a more percentage of escaping without a death. which could cause some rage with the other team. XD

With this ability u always want to try to fight on top of it for the fact that it decreases their armor, which means u can do more damage.

This is wear your tanky-ness comes in at. not only does it give you more health, it makes u stronger with more enemies around you.
I start out with the












Ok, Farming your
Siphoning Strike is the most important thing for his damage. In order to do the massive damage late game like we all want. when ever you are lanning while using Nasus, dont push. try to only last hit with ur
Siphoning Strike only. the only time its ok to not last hit a minion without it, is if it is on cooldown. other than that
Siphoning Strike every minion. i normally have around 250 damage on
Siphoning Strike around 20 min. into the game.




Well thats how i play Nasus, knowing that your
Siphoning Strike is most of ur damage, that u can do almost anything with Nasus, and that Nasus if fun to play. I really hope that this has helped people in order to play a nice and destructive Nasus. Enjoy! :D
