Skarner into Nasusmedium

Overview

Use terrain control and walls to secure ganks and dominate river vision against Nasus.
Prioritize early objective control to prevent Nasus from safely stacking and scaling.
Avoid extended isolated fights where Nasus's slow and durability overpower you.

Path camps toward lanes with walls to maximize stun angles for ganks and objective control.
Hold river choke points before dragon or Herald to deny Nasus's access and force fights on your terms.
Prioritize counter-jungling when Nasus is farming side lanes or low on health, using your tankiness and terrain control to punish him.

Nasus becomes dangerous around 15-20 minutes with stacked and active ; avoid isolated river fights then.
Be cautious during low-health clears or when lanes lack priority, as Nasus can counter-invade or pressure objectives.
Avoid early invades without lane priority or vision control to prevent counter-ganks from Nasus's tankiness and slow.

Start with a clear path that grants quick access to river Scuttle for early vision and control.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority to avoid risky fights against Nasus's tankiness.
Avoid chasing Nasus into open jungle where your mobility and terrain control lose value.

Level 6 is key; use suppression to isolate priority targets before Nasus's durability peaks.
Early tank item completions increase frontline presence and suppression threat for objective control.
Respect Nasus's spike at high stacks and active by avoiding isolated fights.

Convert early river and objective control into dragon and Rift Herald advantages using terrain and suppression.
Use ganks with wall pins to isolate and pick off priority targets, denying Nasus free scaling.
Deny Nasus free farm by invading his jungle when lanes have priority and forcing him into unfavorable fights before his spike.
