Naafiri has a much lower diffuclty than Nasus. That means Nasus players don't need to be very careful when arranging Naafiri allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a much lower level of skill to be able to fight well with you.
Playing cooperatively, Nasus players should see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal physical damage. Together, these champions should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.
Conversely, by aligning Nasus and Naafiri together, you probably will not be providing your side a great deal of magical damage output. We recommend you have other champs on your team that helps cover this gap in their playstyle.
