Champion Build Guide
Introduction
Hi everyone! I'm Beefy, and this is my guide to Nasus top. Nasus is an absolute BEAST of a champion, with high damage output, high tankiness, and a great deal of sustain, he can really be said to be the alpha dog in the game. In the right hands, this champion will rack up pentakills (like I do) and be the bane of existance of the enemy team. Lets get right to it!
Ability Overview
Q - Basically Nasus's Bread and Butter. It is Crucial that you stack as many minions as possible, and avoid making careless mistakes, causing you to lose not only the stack, but CS as well.
Pro tip: Do not be greedy for stacks early on, putting yourself in a dangerous position to get killed, meaning end of the road for you.
W - Use this to slow your enemy down in laning phase, preventing them from chasing you. In teamfights, you want to slow the adcs so you can hammer them down with your q. Extremely useful skill
E - Use this to safely CS from afar, when fighting put this down and then q, granting you easy trades.
R - This makes you an absolute force of nature, giving you insane CDR on your q, and a great deal of beefininess. Use it in teamfights, and dont be afraid to use it when you feel you might be in danger.

Early Game
This is Nasus's Weakest. You want to play extremely safe, and farm only when safe (eg. when the enemy laner used his ability) Try to freeze the wave near your turret, as this will let you farm your q in relative peace. However, take extreme caution not to die early on, as this will set you back so far that you may practically be irrelevant.
Once you hit level 6, if all goes well, you will have enough gold for a sheen and some pots, and maybe boots. Once this happens, wait for cannon wave to collect extra q stacks and back. Then TP back in and enjoy that huge power spike. Post 6 with sheen and a good hunk of q stacks should make you a force to be reckoned with.

Mid Game
This is when you want to build up stacks like a bullet train, look to split push and clear PHAT waves of minions, using q on every single one to build up stacks. In addition, do farm off chickens or krugs, q-ing every unit, to rack up stacks insanely fast. Once you have 500 stacks or so, you are a walking nightmare.
This portion is important also due to the fact that you need your items to give you adequate health and sustain, as steraks give you beefiness whilst spirit lets you sustain like a mad dog.

Late Game
If you survived until here, Congratulations! You can now begin to wreak havoc on the enemy team. Look to wither the ADC or squishies, and EQ combo them. Whilst in teamfights pop your ultimate to grant you CDR on Q and health, to bash those squishies heads in real hard. Ensure you do not go overzealous on teams with high cc, as they will destroy you, despite your mid/late game advantage
Conclusion
Hope you all enjoy my nasus guide, if you follow these tips and tricks you can be guaranteed to carry your team through the ELO HELL!
Have fun, and happy holidays!
