Wow, just bought Vi

The rapetrain has no brakes. WTF she is so strong.

she has like everything, mobility, massive damage, AOE, super gank ult, absurd clear speed. Fun too.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Ideally, you only want to max Q to the point where you can last hit everything you would be able to get anyway with Q.

Or, in simple english: just put enough points in Q so that you can get the CD low enough to last hit shit with it. I dont know how many points it would take to be able to effectively use it in the jungle, but there is a good chance you may only need level 2-3 Q in order to max out your ability to farm with it.


With just one rank in Q you're basically guaranteed two creeps at every camp. One at the very start (auto a week creep, follow up with Q), and then the big one at the end. That gets you 9 damage on Q per camp, or 27 per clear, which amounts to 75% of what you'd get for Qing every last creep.

So if you're concerned about mid-game utility you can still get a crapton of Q stacks without maxing it first. Just don't mess up your Qs.

Also granted, that's probably more than you'd get in lane if the enemy laner zones you out early on or the jungler comes to shut you down. I'm all for it.


Back when I played nasus(this was like 1300 elo so take it with a grain of salt), I usually got only 3-4 Q farm per minute in most lanes until like 10-15 minutes. If you could jungle and pick up ~4-5 farm per minute that'd be really, really good because nasus can build pure tank out of the jungle and still do good damage in fights.

He's also the only person I know that looks cute with a beard not manly. Think he looks manlier without the beard rofl.

The crazy part is he was able to have such an full beard at 17. I remember in an AMA or something he said it had something to do with his ethnicity. I couldn't grown a beard anywhere close even if I tried.

If I'm right you're actually looking at 8-9 farm per minute (24-27 Q damage), so close to double what you're used to getting while laning.

I really need to test this when I get home tonight.

euwest has the 2 hour queue back, this escelated quickly.

Voyboy at 50k viewers. Wow. Does anyone know the highest viewer count for non-tournament streams? I can't imagine pulling in so many people just for soloQ games (although Voy is really entertaining).

I've never understood why you would pick Nasus when Irelia+Jax exist. They both just jump on your carry every 5 seconds, and both have some form of immunity/resistance(Jax dodge+Irelia cc reducton).

Because irelia and jax dive carries while Nasus has huge utility and plays a completely different role in teamfights?

And here we have the main problem with people's perception of Nasus.

The general public doesnt know how to play him, tries to put him in a role he sucks at, and are surprised when he doesnt do well.

Nasus could just cast wither on their carry and Q through their bruisers. Let someone like jax/irelia jump on their withered carry while you try to peel.

tbh tho, his kit is such that, if he had just a little bit more mobility, then he would be exactly like the carry-jumping style of bruiser that is typically played top lane (eg, xin, irelia, jax). I don't really blame most ppl for not getting it. Imagine replacing his e or w with some kind of jump or +ms spell. It also doesn't help that he has, quite possibly, the most unique playstyle of all of the pokemon.

I blame them. T_D does not give half credit when it comes to using your brain.

Well, not only playing him in that role, but also your teammates reactions. If you do Wither the carry and then go to Q the bruiser that's sitting on your own ADC (which is pretty good, since you can chunk them down and allow your Cait or whatever to escape), everyone in solo queue will yell at you like hell for not focusing the carry. Yolo queue indeed.
It's your boy Guzma!
