Tips Against Nasus in Top Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

rippytide09 says “Nasus is a dogshit early game champion (pun intended), but mundo is even worse. Mundo doesn't have as much sustain or intense kill pressure early game, which allows Nasus to scale freely. Eventually, he will W and try to run you down if he scales to a certain point. My advice is to freeze the wave near your side and have your jungler gank. Purchase swifties so that his slow is less effective. Also consider randuins omen if Nasus and someone else is building crit. He's certainly not as bad as the other extremes since you can farm pretty easily throughout the lane, but he does come up frequently.”
Sekirooo says “♡ The sad dog he is not hard you can always freeze and punish him from stacking his only way of stacking if you recall or he try to proxy or his jungle did”

claubertonious says “bully him as hard as you possibly can before he hits 6 because after that you can't punish him very hard, he'll heal so much from dshield second wind and the wave with lifesteal and you wont be able to kill him. His W slow is so oppressive that he will just run you down regardless of empowered E, this is the only matchup i would actually recommend going swifties in. You need to roam as much as you can without losing too much because you won't win by laning against him.”

doomfallover says “legit the easiest lane just press Q when he presses W and you negate his ability that costs 75 mana for 0 mana and you get a kill angle fight with him as much as you can so he doest stack and dont hard push so he is forced to be outside of tower to farm”

vitanker says “[[Nasus]] enjoys this lane since he outscales [[Dr. Mundo]], and can free farm the whole laning phase with his Q[[Siphoning Strike]]. Due to his lifesteal, and Dr. Mundo's weak early game it makes this matchup very hard, especially after [[Nasus]] gets some resists.”

POCHOSAURUS12 says “Abuse him early game. Save W for his W slow Careful lvl 6 because his ultimate is really good 1v1. He outscale you so be proactive”

Wafflerush says “Definitely take Phase Rush here against the ole thwack dog. Most Nasus players will run Fleet Footwork for the additional sustain and move speed, so his main goal is to avoid fighting you and stack. When Phase Rush is ready you can take a short trade against him and run. He will likely attempt to wither you and if Phase Rush is not up, he will turn that trade upside down for you. An early bramble vest is recommended.”

RAVYFY says “wither is a 99% slow. you must kill him 3 times before level 6 or you lose forever.”

TheMild1 says “Very annoying matchup. Hard to punish his weak early game with all the healing he gets. Swifties for his W slow. You can either freeze and look for damage or kill with your jungler, or push him for plates and proxy. Don´t need to kill him to get a lead. Plates and perfect farm are what you are aiming for.”

Glenn Silver says “Most people would say this is an easy matchup, I'd disagree. A good Nasus will just stack with what he gets and max out W. After he maxed out W, he can secure way more stacks and will get dangerous. Build slow resistance.”

Tips Against Nasus in the Jungle Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

Vambient says “This champion is honestly a good matchup even though it is very strong right now in the meta. Rek'Sai jungles faster than Nasus and has more options to gank, stronger ganks and stronger objective control until 3rd or 4th Dragon. ”
L0ganJG says “Nasus Jungle doesn't do objectives very well and have an average clear speed with weak ganks. Clearing well and using Briar's good early game will help you can an advantage early and translate to late game. Look to E him away after he withers you and never fight on his E. Other than that, short combos are good for you. Nasus wants long fights. Black Cleaver is very good for you in this matchup. Try to always hit him with your team and don't give him opportunities to run you down. ”
PeteMKT says “no começo de jogo tente ao máximo gankar ele, matar ele e dar vantagem para o seu aliado de rota e essencial. ele so terá um poder no late game(20min). ”

ludenbergangel says “Very viable ban. If he's the jungler you have a limited amount of time to do something early game while he's busy stacking. Quite literally nothing you can do against him later on aside of the basic E him away. His W slow and AS% cripple is absolutely devastating and makes you feel misery. Unbeatable in his R. Try to avoid him and focus his carries. Avoid landing your R on him. Antiheal is useful”
ZeriZeriZeri says “Nasus in the top lane can severely disrupt your ganks due to his W Wither, and if he ever reaches you, you are effectively out of the fight. In these situations, it is usually better to camp bot lane or focus on early-level ganks top, while Nasus is still weak and lacks stacks. Avoid fighting him once he scales, as his point-and-click slow completely shuts down Zeri’s mobility.”
Sous_chef6 says “Don't even try to fight him unless teammates can help you take him down, he counters you by nature of being toplaner”

raphnalin says “Invade early, as he doesn't clear the jungle easily. Our 1v1 is better. The only problem is his scaling.”
Briar Builds by raphnalin | Briar Player
kittygore says “Can be annoying but has slower clear and worse ganks than you. Try to invade him early and cleanse his slow.”
DEG310 says “its pretty hard to 1v1 him once he gets some points inte his w and slows both your movespeed and autoattack speed unless you are really fed”
Master Sigma by DEG310 | Master Yi Player
shiifox says “theres really not much you can do, he just infinitely scales, very annoying matchup, killable if he has no R though”
