Guide to Synergizing Vladimir and Nasus

Tips for Playing as Vladimir with Nasus

Transfusion instantly deals damage to the enemy before healing Vladimir, making it one of the best last hitting tools in the game.

Cast Hemoplague where it will afflict the most units.

Sanguine Pool pops incoming missiles, so it can be used to dodge disables.

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, Vladimir sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Nasus. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN.

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

Is Vladimir better when played alongside Nasus?

By playing on the same team as Vladimir, he decreases their win rate by -1.1% to 48.9%. This demonstrates that there is a negative bond between Vladimir and Nasus that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Nasus has a lower difficulty than Vladimir. That means Vladimir players don't need to be careful when enlisting Nasus teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to be able to work well with you.

When playing on the same side, Vladimir players will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magic damage. When paired, these champions can blast through enemies with magic damage.

Conversely, by aligning Vladimir and Nasus together, you will not be giving your other allies enough utility. We recommend you include other champions on your team that helps cover this relative gap in their potential.
