All a Nasus player wants is to get to the late game, so Fleet is fantastic to give you the sustain to make you a happy doggo.

Win Conditions
- Stack’s mean a lot to Nasus- but not everything. It is better to miss a few than get yourself killed or lose a lot of health.
- Nasus has to survive the early levels- so don’t bother fighting. It is better to wait and farm (get stack’s from your Q) than to fight and maybe get a kill.
- Don’t forget that you are part of a team. Try to group with your team and not focus solely on split push.
Weak Against
- Garen: Garen's strong early-game damage, especially with Q, can harass Nasus and deny him the opportunity to stack his q. Garen's tankiness can make it difficult for Nasus to trade effectively.
- Urgot: Urgot's range and harassment with Q and E can keep Nasus at bay. Urgot can also use his W to shred Nasus's defenses and deal significant damage, making it a challenging matchup for the doge.
- Illaoi: Illaoi's zone control with E and her tentacles can zone Nasus away from minions. If Illaoi lands her E, it can put Nasus in a vulnerable position, and she can capitalize on this with strong damage output and tentacle slams.
Strong Against
- Kennen: Nasus's passive life steal from his passive can help him sustain against Kennen's poke. As Nasus gains stacks of Q, he becomes more resilient and can eventually threaten Kennen in an all-in.
- Yasuo: Nasus can weather Yasuo's aggressive playstyle. His wither from W can slow Yasuo's attack speed and mobility, making it difficult for Yasuo to engage effectively. Nasus's tankiness and scaling can also prove problematic for Yasuo later in the game.
- Jayce: Nasus can become tanky over time with his passive life steal, which allows him to sustain through Jayce's poke. As Nasus gains more Q stacks, he can become a significant threat to Jayce in trades and all-ins.

Game Strategy
- Early Game: In the early game, Nasus should focus on farming with Siphoning Strike (Q) to stack it and increase his damage. Play passively, focus on sustaining with your passive (Soul Eater), and use your Wither (W) to disengage from trades or set up ganks, avoiding unnecessary aggression until you've stacked your Q significantly.
- Mid Game: During the mid game, Nasus starts to become a split-push threat. Continue stacking your Q by farming side lanes and jungle camps when safe, and use your Spirit Fire (E) to push waves quickly. Teleport to team fights or objectives like Dragon when your Teleport is up, and utilize your Wither to peel for your carries or catch out-of-position enemies.
- Late Game: In the late game, Nasus becomes a powerful duelist and frontline tank. Utilize your stacked Q to decimate enemies in team fights, focusing on high-priority targets. Split-push when it's safe, using your teleport strategically to join your team. Be the frontline in team fights, soaking up damage with your natural tankiness and providing zoning with your Spirit Fire and Wither, ensuring your team has the upper hand in late-game engagements.
