I just put out the Nasus build you see down there and, I'm wondering if I've explained my rune choices and item choices. Is there anything I need to expand on and, do I really need the Doran's Shield the commenter suggested?

I don't quite understand what's going on with the build. Are you playing a roamer? When do you start roaming? And why would you roam with Nasus, one of the most farm-dependent characters and best laners in the game?

You REALLY don't need Boots of Swiftness - if you roam, you usually grab Boots of Mobility but again, as I've always said, Mercury's Treads are best. If you've got that much of a concern about movement speed, just invest in MS quints. You should be getting Aegis sooner.

The problem with Phantom Dancer is that it offers little for Nasus late game, whose strength comes from being difficult to kill while dealing a ton of damage primarily through Siphoning Strike and Triforce procs. You'd do best to invest in more bulk.

Not much point in investing in Nimbleness. All you get is 2% dodge. Points would better be spent filling up MR and armor and getting Strength of Spirit.

Starting off with a Dagger is only going to hinder you in lane, which is the most important phase of Nasus's progression throughout the game. That's why Doran's is such a strong choice. Also I agree with everything Jebus has said.

Hmmm... Ok. I really wish I could record some of the stuff I was talking about. It would make it so much easier to explain.


Thank you to jhoijhoi for the sig, and all the dividers in the guide.
