doesnt outpace, they farm at the exact same rate. played this jungle MU a million times. always same level same farm give or take 5-10 cs depending on one of us farming a lane that died or whatever
its because shyvana's 1-6 is faster but nasus 7-11 is insanely fast, just has a slow first clear.

Isn't the whole "kiteable" thing the reason why you just try to flank as Shyvana instead of running at them from the front?

not sure where your getting off on being some god shyvana player with 3-2 in ranked and your most recent game an 0-4 loss but tone down the condescending when i have 300+ nasus games on this season alone lol. I would venture to say I have more experience...

also that loss in my match history was because we had 2 DCs for about 1/4 of the game. but you know taking things out of context to try and make yourself look good.
if you wanna look at ranked stats that matter, look at my hecarim stats because i play both characters almost identically.

you dont understand the point, I play against shyvana a lot because its a popular character, how often do you play against jungle nasus? I don't see why it isnt obvious that I would have more experience in this MU.
and I dont see any season where you have a substantial amount of shyvana games, so different account or something?

shyv is my 4th most played character right behind kat, anivia and hecarim. vi is a close 5th. literally all i did from may-july was learn how to play carry junglers on shyv. i then took what i learned on shyv and switched to hecarim and have really good stats this season.

I mean i dont need to prove it to myself because i know the character in and out. I have the highest kills per game on nasus of the top 25 nasus on NA server, the highest gold per game, the highest winrate.
You seem to be more in doubt then I am, I have no reason to play the reverse MU because ive played it countless times in a diamond 3ish setting give or take where people are picking shyvana and trying to win in ranked.
I can spell it out right here.
I full clear gromp to golems and get level 4, this is the only point where nasus is slower then shyvana. after I buy jungle upgrade and boots or ruby I proceed to reclear the jungle gromp to golems again, gank or if no opportunity base again. After this 2nd buy and my current stacks shyvana will never outfarm me at this point.
if you opt for double jungle you dont get the level 4 but you can go for a scuttler so it honestly doesnt matter either way.
There is only one jungler that can outfarm nasus and that is skarner because hes broken. Honestly with that champion you can outlevel everyone in the game by 2 levels if done properly, no one else can do that.

hey man i did jungle nasus before it was op

if you opt for double jungle you dont get the level 4 but you can go for a scuttler so it honestly doesnt matter either way. i think that this right here is the problem. shyv will start to bleed into the enemy jungle and tax lanes because she has a better AoE ability, better escape ability and higher movespeed than nasus. what i'm having a hard time understanding is how nasus can both clear individual camps and walk between them faster than burnout lets shyv
if you are struggling with skarner might i ask specifically what skarner is doing to out farm you that shyv could not also be doing for the same reasons? in my experiences they clear at about the same rate.

im fine being behind a level if they tax lanes, because that just means we are up levels somewhere else. but on a pure jungle clearing perspective there is no way shyvana ever gets ahead. (meaning all lanes are equal and somehow shyv is ahead in levels of me, impossible)
now skarner, i play this champ a lot as well so i know his strengths and weaknesses but it doesnt really matter in this MU. he will go into your jungle and get his crystals and just start dominating your jungle since his dueling is insane even for nasus standards. He has 2 long stuns/suppresses at level 6 rendering a mid/jungle skirmish 2v2 a complete wash for your side. There is zero way you can ever compete against him. even if he doesnt invade he clears faster ESPECIALLY once he gets sheen/devourer core he can clear the jungle in such insane speed its ridiculous.
Shyvana on the other hand has levels 1-5 to make any sort of impact on nasus' jungle because level 7 and beyond she isn't stronger then nasus in a 1v1/2v2.
edit - if you burnout between camps then you dont have burnout for the actual camp. nasus makes up for this at any rate with early phage, I always go upgraded jungle item ---> phage
|
We know burnout has like a 60% uptime with 0 CDR, right
|
I liked this topic of conversation when it was talking about items and Shyvana builds.
Now it's gotten kinda lame.
Also has anybody been playing Lux since her winrate skyrocketed I still want feedback.
|
I've played her a bunch and when I'm not playing her in 5's I've got a 90% winrate. She feels really good, unfortunately euros too heavy. :p
