Guide to Synergizing Aatrox and Nasus

Tips for Playing as Aatrox with Nasus

Cast World Ender when you are sure you can force a fight.

Use Umbral Dash while casting The Darkin Blade to increase your chances of hitting the enemy.

Crowd Control abilities like Infernal Chains or your allies' immobilizing effects will help you set up The Darkin Blade.

Advice to Understand How Nasus Will Play

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.
