That is. Nasus strength isn't late game, but mid game. Late game nasus can still be melted by an adc with good kiting potential, while landing a few Q's on tanky targets. His main strength is the auto focus (u force the enemy team to focus the tanky top laner and waste resources on him) because of the fear of his Q.

Mid game nasus instead, is an unkillable unescapable killing machine with a Q that hits for tons of damage because nobody has built resistances and ADC's don't provide enough damage against him. No other champion can outduel him mid game.

Is he worth banning? Well if my teammate says "don't ban nasus I main riven/pantheon top" sure I will ban him because people counter him with stupid squishy early game bruisers that will feed him after 150 farm under tower and will have 0 influence compared to him.

Otherwise not, just ensure your team has enough CC, an ADC good at kiting him (vayne,lucian) and a decent top laner tanky enough to not feed him and useful in later stages of the game (renekton, jax, ryze, malphite,kayle, mundo, etc)
