Hi guys! My name is Oso, and I'm a Nasus player from NA. I have over 250 games on Nasus, and I wanted to share some thoughts about stack pacing with the dog.

There are a couple big mistakes I have seen less experienced Nasus players make. The first is to have little sense of how much they should be stacking their siphoning strike.

The second, and far more common mistake, however, is how to play when off whatever pace that player has set up for themselves. Some Nasus players will fight way too hard for stacks when they stack less early on, panicking because they think they are going to fall behind. Others may stack more than usual, and outscale their opponents sooner, but not capitalize on this lead due to a lack of recognition of this difference.

I hope the following table will start helping newer Nasus players to not just think about how many stacks they should be getting, but also how to play around however many stacks they do have at any given time.

Here is the Stacks - Time table I put together

DISCLAIMER: These numbers and notes are all general values and concepts I have put together, they may not apply to all lane opponents. Always evaluate your matchup carefully and play as well as you can without dying!

I hope some of you gained something from this! Everything here is based on my opinions , so please feel free to comment with any feedback or questions you may have.

Special thanks to /u/14firedog for some suggestions!
