Nasus into Rek'Saimedium

Overview

Accept a passive early jungle phase to avoid Rek'Sai's strong early ganks and fast clears.
Focus on safe full clears to reach level 4 before contesting river or Scuttle.
Outscale Rek'Sai by stacking and punishing her falloff later.

Prioritize full clears and only contest Scuttle when nearby lanes have priority.
Track Rek'Sai's three-camp path to anticipate ganks and prepare counter-ganks.
Focus on farming and stacking until item breakpoints before fighting.

Rek'Sai's early three-camp into gank path creates high invade and counter-gank risk before level 4.
Isolated river fights before and stacks are dangerous due to Rek'Sai's knockup and mobility.
Forced smite fights on early dragons or Herald are risky if Rek'Sai controls vision and lane priority.

Start with a full clear and avoid early river fights where Rek'Sai's mobility and knockup dominate.
Prioritize vision control around river and jungle entrances to track Rek'Sai's movements.
Do not contest Scuttle without lane priority or level 4 to avoid 2v1 scenarios.

Level 6 grants durability to survive extended fights and contest objectives.
High stacks turn you into a potent duelist; pressure side lanes to force responses.
Rek'Sai's early clear and gank threat peak before level 6; avoid fights during this window.

Convert safe full clears into high stacks and item breakpoints before contesting objectives.
Use vision and lane priority to avoid Rek'Sai's early ganks and punish overextensions with slows and damage.
Scale into side-lane duels where your durability and stacking damage overpower Rek'Sai's early burst and mobility.
