Guide to Synergizing Nasus and Warwick

Tips for Playing as Nasus with Warwick

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.

Advice to Understand How Warwick Will Play

Infinite Duress (R)'s distance scales with any Move Speed you gain, even from ally buffs and summoner spells.

Follow your Blood Hunt trails to low health enemy champions.

Jaws of the Beast (Q) will follow enemies who run, dash or teleport if you keep the button held down.
