Playing as Nasus

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Last-hit with Siphoning Strike

    Last-hit minions with Siphoning Strike (Q): each kill with the spell permanently increases its damage, by more on large minions and champions.

  2. Wither their carry

    In teamfights, cast Wither (W) on their carry: the slow grows stronger over the spell's duration and also reduces their attack speed.

  3. Fury of the Sands as the fight starts

    Cast Fury of the Sands (R) as you enter a teamfight: for 15 seconds, you gain health and resistances, damage nearby enemies, and Siphoning Strike (Q) comes back faster.

  4. Farm instead of forcing early

    Early on, farm rather than force trades: Siphoning Strike (Q) stacks are permanent, and every minion you last-hit makes you stronger later.

Playing against Quinn

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge her Blinding Assault

    Dodge Blinding Assault (Q): it marks you with Harrier, which empowers her next auto on you, and reduces your vision.

  2. Engage after her Vault

    If you can engage, wait until she has used Vault (E): it's her only spell to push you away, on a 12 to 8 second cooldown.

  3. Hit her during her flight

    If Quinn passes within your range during Behind Enemy Lines (R), hit her: one hit makes her lose her speed bonus for a moment.

  4. Ping when she leaves lane

    Ping your team as soon as she leaves lane: after a 2-second channel, Behind Enemy Lines (R) gives her a large speed boost.
