Guide to Synergizing Lucian and Nasus

Tips for Playing as Lucian with Nasus

For optimal burst, try to combine Relentless Pursuit into Piercing Light.

Ardent Blaze actually explodes in a star pattern. Try to line it up so the spokes hit enemy champions.

Because of Lightslinger, Lucian benefits more from Attack Damage than he does from Attack Speed.

Once you have chosen an angle for The Culling, you cannot change it. Pick your moment well!

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 Lucian in LoL

The Lucian 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, Lucian 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 fall shows that Nasus helps Lucian perform poorer in competitive League games. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Lucian is an ally to Nasus, he sees a little decrease in his full damage output. This difference could signal that Nasus does not support by providing cover for him to deal more damage or that his participation also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Lucian is played with Nasus on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays without Nasus. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Nasus.

Additionally, when Lucian plays with Nasus on the same side, he often takes a little less damage than when he fights alone. Receiving not as much damage may mean that Nasus does a decent job of protecting Lucian during team fights.

Is Lucian better when played alongside Nasus?

There is no perfect ally for Lucian that will no matter what be his top synergy. Yet, Nasus is a good companion for Lucian. By playing on the same side as Lucian, he raises their win rate by 1.3% to 50.1%. This demonstrates that there is a somewhat important bond between Lucian and Nasus that allows them to perform better together than alone.

Nasus has a lower difficulty than Lucian. That means Lucian players don't need to be careful when lining up Nasus comrades to play with, as they will have to have a relatively low level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Working alongside, Lucian players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to destroy wih physical damage. Together, these champions can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Conversely, by bringing Lucian and Nasus together, you probably will not be providing your team a lot of support. Plan to pick other champions on your team that offsets this hole in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of the ability of your Nasus ally, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
