Guide to Synergizing Vayne and Nasus

Tips for Playing as Vayne with Nasus

Don't go in first to a large teamfight. Wait for your teammates to initiate.

Tumble has many uses, but it cannot pass over walls.

Condemn can be used to both pin targets to walls to ensure a kill, or to escape a pursuer.

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.

Overall, Vayne sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Nasus. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Nasus helps Vayne perform not as well in competitive League rounds. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.

This may signal that Nasus doesn't help protection for her to deal more damage or that his presence on the team also helps increase the round's duration.

This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Nasus.

Moreover, when Vayne plays with Nasus on the same side, she typically takes a little less damage than when she plays alone. Receiving not as much damage may mean that Nasus does a decent job of covering Vayne during team fights.
