Guide to Synergizing Nasus and Qiyana

Tips for Playing as Nasus with Qiyana

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.

This difference may demonstrate that Qiyana does not provide protection for him to dish out more damage or that her allyship also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Nasus is played together with Qiyana on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Qiyana.

Is Nasus better when played alongside Qiyana?

There is no universally accepted best synergy for Nasus that will no matter what be his ideal ally. However, Qiyana is a relatively poor ally for Nasus. By being on the same side as Nasus, she drops their win rate by -1.4% to 48.9%. This signals that there is a negative bond between Nasus and Qiyana that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Qiyana has a greater difficulty than Nasus. That means Nasus players need to be very careful when enlisting Qiyana comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a greater level of skill to do well with you.

Working together, Nasus players will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magic damage. When paired, these champions can blast through enemies with magic damage.

Conversely, by grouping Nasus and Qiyana together, you probably will not be giving your team a great deal of utility. We recommend you have other champs on your team that offsets this gap in their capabilities.

Regardless of your Qiyana ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
