Guide to Synergizing Nasus and Ziggs

Tips for Playing as Nasus with Ziggs

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 Ziggs Will Play

Even if you're far from a fight you can still help from afar with Mega Inferno Bomb.

Slowing your enemies with Hexplosive Minefield makes it easier to land other abilities.

Knocking yourself over walls with Satchel Charge can be great when chasing after or escaping from enemies.

Is Nasus better when played alongside Ziggs?

There is no perfect synergy for Nasus that will 100% of the time be his top ally. However, Ziggs is a very typical companion for Nasus. By locking into the same team as Nasus, he drops their win rate by -0.6% to 49.7%. This demonstrates that there is not really a strong bond between Nasus and Ziggs that results in them performing worse together than without each other.

Ziggs has a lower difficulty than Nasus. That means Nasus players don't need to be very careful when arranging Ziggs allies to play with, as they will need a lower level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Playing together, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magical damage. When paired, these two can blast through enemies with magic damage.

Conversely, by bringing Nasus and Ziggs together, you will not be granting your other allies very much crowd control. We recommend you have other champions on your team that nullifies this relative gap in their abilities.

Regardless of your Ziggs ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
