Guide to Countering Tryndamere as Nasus

Tips for Playing as Nasus against Tryndamere

Paying attention to last hitting with Siphoning Strike will have a large impact at the end of a game.

If you're solo, Spirit Fire is a great way to farm a lane. It can be bad if you're in a lane with 2 and you push too far. Find the right balance between Siphoning Strike last hits and AoE farming.

If you have low defenses, people will focus you down even during your ultimate. Try buying some survivability items even in your DPS builds.

Advice to Win Against Tryndamere

Try harassing Tryndamere early so he can't kill minions and heal with Bloodlust.

Most of Tryndamere's damage is physical. If he's getting too strong, consider buying a Thornmail.

Remember, Tryndamere can only slow you if you are facing away from him.
