How to Play Nasus in ARAM Mayhem

You are a frontliner who walks into the fight with Fury of the Sands (R) up and stays on the enemy carry with Wither (W), which slows their movement and attack speed over time. Between fights, last hit minions with Siphoning Strike (Q), since kills grow its damage permanently. Spirit Visage, Thornmail and Quest: Steel Your Heart push you toward a health-heavy build that lasts through long brawls.
