How to stack faster as Nasus? Season 8

Asked by KLSG on February 9, 2018

Hi there
I just saw new skin for my favourite doggo in this game and I want to play again as him.
There's only one problem I had with him... I don't know how to stack quickly as Nasus. I always get something around 250 stacks in 20 minute.
Does anyone know haw to stack faster? Maybe im just bad at last hitting? If yes, is there a way to improve my "skill" of last hitting minions with my q?

Hello. I've been playing a lot of this season. For build and runes and game knowledge, see This Guide by Vapora Dark. The issue may be in your ability to last hit. To practice this. Go to Practice Tool or create a Custom Game. Place one bot on intermediate difficulty on the enemy team. You then need to pick and go to the bottom lane (that's where a solo bot defaults to) to practice farming. Try to last hit while the bot harasses you. Try not to die and do not kill the bot or force it out of lane. Your goal should be to last hit at least 70 CS at 10 minutes. And since you're you should be using your to last hit any time it is available. If you do push the bot out of lane, back and spend gold, then return to lane as you would in a real game.

If you build cooldown reduction, you can q more often, resulting in more stacks. Some people like to start ancient coin on nasus since it gives cooldown reduction. The trade off is that you give up your early sustain in order to net more q's so you get punished more for being out of position.

So you think that ancient coin is a big risk?

I just finished match with ancient coin and it was pretty mind blowing https://matchhistory.eune.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/EUN1/1909657778/29622540?tab=overview Also game was something around 20 minutes and I had something around 400-500 stacks

well the thing is, building ancient coin doesn't give you the sustain that something like Doran's shield or cloth armor+4 pots will give you. If you get hard poked early game then your laning phase becomes substantially harder. The coin is there to help you q more often trading off your early game survivability.

I know this is going to sound like i'm trolling, but i'm not. I have surprisingly seen it in quite a few games of mine, but you take , and take jungle. Im pretty sure you get 6 stacks from each big monster in the camp, if you hit your correctly, it gets you a lot of stacks quickly, also, each big monster in a camp has a dark harvest stack waiting for you, so if you get the q off correctly, you get 6 stacks on that, plus 2 stacks from .

hope this helps,
