Guide to Synergizing Nasus and Elise

Tips for Playing as Nasus with Elise

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 Understand How Elise Will Play

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.

How to Play with Elise as Nasus in LoL

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

Overall, Nasus sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Elise. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Elise helps Nasus perform not as well in competitive League of Legends games. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Nasus tries to synergize with Elise, he observes a barely noticable drop in his total damage dealt. This could signal that Elise does not provide cover for him to dish out more damage or that her presence on the team also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Nasus is played with Elise on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Elise.

Additionally, when Nasus plays with Elise on the same side, he often takes a little less damage than when he fights alone. Taking not as much damage may mean that Elise does a decent job of covering Nasus in team fights.

Is Nasus better when played alongside Elise?

There is no top synergy for Nasus that will always be his #1 synergy. Yet, overall, Elise is a very typical teammate for Nasus. By being on the same team as Nasus, she decreases their win rate by -0.7% to 49.6%. This signals that there is only a small synergy between Nasus and Elise that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Elise has a greater difficulty than Nasus. That means you should be very careful when lining up Elise comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a greater level of skill to cooperate well with you.

Working alongside, you should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. When paired, these champs can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

Although, by aligning Nasus and Elise together, you may not be giving your team a great deal of support. We recommend you have other champions on your team that helps cover this relative disparity in this pairing's potential.

Regardless of your Elise ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
