How to play it
DO
His Q stacks scale
Siphoning Strike stacks are the whole game — every farm you let him take makes him bigger and tankier.
Fight in the 2-7 window
Look to fight — and get your jungler to camp him — between levels ~2 and 7, before his stacks pile up.
Freeze and starve him
Harass Nasus off the wave and freeze near your tower to deny his farm and stall his stacks.
DON'T
Never let Nasus free-farm — unchecked, his Q stacks turn him into a tanky monster that takes over.
