How to play it

Don't fight in his E
His E and R deal heavy magic damage and his E also shreds your armor: don't trade while you're sitting in the zone.
Bully him early
Repeat Q-W-E (or Q-E-W) to beat him down early and kill him before his level-6 Sheen spike turns him into a monster.
Manage the wave
This is a wave-management lane: don't shove in and hand him free farm, keep the wave your side and make your spells clip as little of it as possible.
Never let him free-farm into the late game: an unchecked Nasus becomes an unkillable monster.
