Zyra vs Nasus

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Prioritize early jungle tempo and river control to disrupt Nasus's slow scaling jungle path.
Use Zyra's strong crowd control and poke to contest Scuttle and invade when lanes have priority.
Deny Nasus free farm and stacks by aggressive counter-jungling before he reaches his power spikes.

Jungle Plan

Path for early Scuttle control and invade Nasus's jungle when his camps are on cooldown.
Coordinate with lanes that have priority to force Nasus off camps and secure objectives.
Use roots and plants to zone Nasus during counter-jungle attempts and force him into unfavorable fights.

Danger windows

Avoid river skirmishes when Nasus has (R) active and lanes cannot assist.
Beware of isolated fights if Nasus lands (W) slow and stacks (Q) damage.
Do not contest objectives if Nasus is nearby with high stacks and ultimate ready.

Early game

Start with a full clear to hit level 3 quickly and secure early Scuttle crab if lanes can assist.
Avoid extended river fights if Nasus is nearby with lanes lacking priority.
Use brush control around river entrances to set up vision and punish Nasus's slow pathing.

Power spikes

Level 2 root plus plant poke enables strong early contest and invades.
Level 6 ultimate empowers zone control for teamfights and objective setups.
Nasus's power spikes come later; pressure before he stacks (Q) and activates (R).

Win conditions

Convert early jungle pressure into dragon and Rift Herald control with lane follow-up.
Use Zyra's crowd control to enable ganks and deny Nasus safe farming.
Deny Nasus scaling by invading and forcing fights before he reaches key power spikes.

Tip: For Zyra vs Nasus, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Jungle lane check.
