Guide to Synergizing Zac and Nasus

Tips for Playing as Zac with Nasus

Picking up goo chunks is very important to staying alive.

When Cell Division is ready, try to die in a position that makes it difficult for the enemy team to kill your bloblets.

Charging Elastic Slingshot from the fog of war will give opponents less time to react.

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.

How to Play with Nasus as Zac in LoL

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

Overall, Zac sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Nasus. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Nasus helps Zac perform worse in competitive LoL matches. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Zac plays on the same team as Nasus, he observes a little decrease in his total damage output. This could signal that Nasus does not provide protection for him to deal more damage or that his presence also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Zac is played alongside Nasus 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 with Nasus.

Additionally, when Zac plays with Nasus on the same side, he usually receives a little less damage than when he fights alone. Taking not as much damage may indicate that Nasus does a decent job of covering Zac during teamfights.

Is Zac better when played alongside Nasus?

There is no perfect ally for Zac that will always be his ideal teammate. However, overall, Nasus is a very typical ally for Zac. By being on the same side as Zac, he improves their win rate by 0.9% to 52.7%. This demonstrates that there is only a small synergy between Zac and Nasus that allows them to perform at the top of their game together than alone.

Nasus has a lower difficulty than Zac. That means you don't need to be careful when lining up 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 cooperate well with you.

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

Although, by aligning Zac and Nasus together, you probably will not be giving your other teammates enough crowd control. We recommend you pick other champions on your team that neutralizes this relative hole in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Nasus ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
