Guide to Synergizing Kai'Sa and Nasus

Tips for Playing as Kai'Sa with Nasus

Make sure to buy items that will evolve at least 1 or 2 of your spells.

Work with your teammates to set up your Ultimate and optimize damage with your passive.

Try to catch enemy carries alone to burst them with Icathian Rain.

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 Kai'Sa in LoL

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

Overall, Kai'Sa sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Nasus. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Nasus helps Kai'Sa perform poorer in competitive League of Legends rounds. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Kai'Sa is an ally to Nasus, she observes a barely noticable drop in her total damage output. This difference may demonstrate that Nasus does not provide protection for her to dish out more damage or that his presence on the team also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Kai'Sa is played with Nasus on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays without Nasus. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Nasus.

Moreover, when Kai'Sa plays with Nasus on the same team, she typically receives a little more damage than when she plays alone. Getting dealt more damage could mean that Nasus does a poor job of covering Kai'Sa in teamfights.

Is Kai'Sa better when played alongside Nasus?

There is no top synergy for Kai'Sa that will always be her #1 ally. Yet, Nasus is a very typical ally for Kai'Sa. By playing on the same team as Kai'Sa, he decreases their win rate by -0.1% to 46.4%. This demonstrates that there is a weak bond between Kai'Sa and Nasus that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Nasus has a lower difficulty than Kai'Sa. That means Kai'Sa players don't need to be very careful when finding Nasus teammates to play with, as they will have to have a lower level of skill to cooperate well with you.

Fighting cooperatively, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these champs can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

Conversely, by aligning Kai'Sa and Nasus together, you may not be granting your other allies very much crowd control. Plan to bring other champions on your team that helps cover this relative gap in their kit.

Regardless of your Nasus ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well, regardless.
