What you say about nasus is false, hes a very strong top lane even if he is denied farm early, and that only happens if your up against someone like teemo he harrases you with AA every 3 seconds, nasus can easily stop anyone in lane and can outrade people due to his w slow and attack speed debuff. I beat a riven in solo top lane before, at level 1, stand next to minions and bait her q to push the lane, u may drop to half health, but with regrowth pendant start, you will regain the much imediately, and the lane is pushed close to your tower, this is,in my opinion, where nasus succeeds the best. Due to nasus passive lifesteal you can keep creeps out of turret range and farm, if the enemy is not a ranged he cant harrass you very well without taking turret damage. I kept the lane frozen there, and i can farm against the Riven, by about 10 minutes, everytime she tries to farm or harrass me, i just q her, and she Es away, she cant beat me now, i got first blood on her in 15 minutes and started snowballing immediatly.

Well played melee champs with gapclose cc and ranged poke can beat nasus, for instance pantheon is a great choice, u can stun nasus, q poke, and if u land a stun his q is blocked, another one is Jarvan, E/Q into him, AA, walk away, but a well played nasus can beat him back later in the game if he doesnt get first blooded.
