Kled vs Nasus Counter Pick
Matchup Summary
What the Data Means
Two very different profiles meet in the Top lane: Kled the fighter, Nasus the fighter/tank hybrid. The sample behind this page is 216 games from patch 16.13.1, and Kled wins 56.9% of them. That is 6.9 points above even, so Nasus is one of the matchups Kled can lean on.
Kled threatens Chaaaaaaaarge!!!; Nasus counters through Wither. Then it becomes Chaaaaaaaarge!!! against Fury of the Sands, and the one still holding it sets the terms. Resources split the two: Courage for Kled, Mana for Nasus.
Both Kled and Nasus threaten mainly physical damage, so one resistance covers the lane. Before items it is 410 HP, 35 armour, 28 MR for Kled; 650, 34, 32 for Nasus. At full build levels the gap widens to 2418 HP versus 1838, favouring Nasus. Movement speed: Kled 345, Nasus 350.
Both champions are melee (Kled at 125, Nasus at 125), so the lane is decided by cooldowns rather than reach.
216 games sit behind that figure, and it moves whenever Kled or Nasus gets tuned.
