Nasus ARAM How to play

  1. Your main combo is to walk up or do it from bush - cast E with First Strike + Luden's Echo. That's your bread and butter.
  2. You can trick enemies by facing other directions, walking into other direction and casting E.
  3. You can adapt to enemy team. After rushing Sorcerer's Shoes, Luden's Echo and maybe Shadowflame - you can go tanky and counter enemy team.
  4. You are gonna melt anyone in melee range thanks to your ult that scales off AP and deals % max hp.
  5. Do not wait for special moment for your R. It is okay to use it for anti-poke (i.e. Karthus ult).
  6. Wait for First Strike and proc it with your combo, to deal damage and earn gold
  7. Be careful to not get poked, because you waste First Strike procs.
  8. Usually spam your W on carries, it is great catching tool.
