Guide to Synergizing Elise and Nasus

Tips for Playing as Elise with Nasus

Spider Form is most effective at finishing off enemies with low health; Human Form's Neurotoxin does more damage to healthy foes.

Elise's Spider Form and Spider Form abilities do not cost mana and can be prioritized when you are trying to conserve mana.

When in Spider Form, Spiderlings will attack the target that Elise uses Venomous Bite on.

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.

How to Play with Nasus as Elise in LoL

The Elise Nasus synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Nasus, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Elise sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Nasus. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Nasus helps Elise perform worse in ranked League of Legends games. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Elise is an ally to Nasus, she observes a little decrease in her complete damage output. This may signal that Nasus does not provide cover for her to dish out more damage or that his allyship also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Elise is played together with Nasus on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Nasus.

Moreover, when Elise plays with Nasus on the same team, she on average receives a little less damage than when she fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage may indicate that Nasus does a decent job of covering Elise in teamfights.

By playing on the same side as Elise, he raises their win rate by 1.5% to 49.6%. This signals that there is a potentially meaningful bond between Elise and Nasus that results in them performing better together than alone.

Nasus has a much lower diffuclty than Elise. That means Elise players don't need to be very careful when finding Nasus teammates to play with, as they will require a much lower level of skill to work well with you.

Fighting on the same side, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal physical damage. Combined, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

In contrast, by grouping Elise and Nasus together, you probably will not be granting your side a great deal of utility. Make sure to have other champs on your team that fills this relative hole in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of your Nasus ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
