Nasus Matchups Overview
Nasus General information
Nasus tips and tricks
Try your hardest to get as many stacks on your Q as possible. Make sure you use it to last hit with on the large monsters.
Nasus is a late-game monster and should look to split push during the mid and late game. But, if your team needs you in team fights, be prepared to group and help your team.
You can start ganking as soon as you hit level 4. To make ganking easier, playing around your Summoner Spells, and look to only gank overextended lanes early on.
