On the Nasus vs Teemo Discussion. I'm high gold (I've actually been the promised plat land, yeah you can drop =-(

I got counter picked by teemo tons. And I found most of the time I would crush.

9/21/0 red ad yellow armor blue mr quints mr (thanks slayer I used to use life steal quints and argued it hard but mr better vs teemo and other better choices vs others) I then go cloth 5 pots (need the pots to stay full and take harass, cloth helps you lots early and a lot of teemos even ap will start dorans blade.)

I then take ghost ignite. I know TP is the thing and there are many benifits but it really ups your all in potential which vs teemo is the thing.

I max Q, it's your huge damage and basically what makes you nasus. I see that E might be "safer" but all the farm you get with e will not load your Q which is what you need.

I farm only when my q is up and let him push me to my tower. I often let the early ranged creep die just to not take the harass. Use your pots to stay close to 100% don't wait till you're low to use them, it's just more dangerous and takes away any kill potential.

Ask for gank, it doesn't always happen but as mentioned with your W it's a pretty easy kill since he is pushing, squishy and slowed.

If no gank at level 4 put a second point in w (2 in q 2 in w) be at full health or close 2 it. bait out a blind and turn back like your running when he goes for a ranged creep of yours turn on him and pop ghost and then wither. Even if he flashes keep after him when he's at 50% ignite. If you don't kill oh well but no point saving it since you need both summoners to kill him. Chase him right to edge of tower, if you can kill him but you will die , do it trades are good for you. At the very least he will have to back or be ez for you to farm a bit. Make sure first purchase is cowl and always grab pots.

Just farm safe again until both summoners up. Then rinse and repeat the above. Once you are 11 you can kill him any time you want even under tower while summoners up, and ofter 1v2 or at least get away.

If your first all in fails its ok just tower farm Q, still once u have cowl and 11 hes dead anyways. if you lose tower it kinda sucks but then to put more pressure on you he has to come up even further.

I would always get mercs as my boots, the tenacity helps chasing with shrooms and the mr is nice.

My question on the whole Nasus discussion, why pick him at all? I don't see why you would willingly pick an even/losing lane in SoloQ, in 5s/semi-organized play, yeah, sure, he fits a role, but why not pick someone that split pushes better (Jax/Tryn) tanks more (mundo/shyvana) or straight up wins his lane/scales into a great carry/semi-carry (Ryze/lulu/Riven)

I'm a scrub at that high silver/low gold rating, so I'm just curious what the thought process behind picking Nasus is.
