Playing against Nasus

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Punish Nasus CONSTANTLY in early game: he is very weak before his stacks and depends on Q farming. Zone him away from minions.

2

Freeze the lane near your tower to prevent him from farming safely — he has to expose himself to ganks.

3

Don't let him free farm: a Nasus with 400+ stacks at 20 minutes is nearly unbeatable in 1v1.

4

Kite him in teamfights: despite his W slow, he's still a melee champion with no real gap-closer.
