Nasus works really well for me against champ that uses mana for their harass move and melee champs. Let them win lane for the first 2 levels and suddenly, you will find yourself farming in front of your turret for 15 minutes straight.

With turret right behind you, Melee are somewhat screwed (If they decide to come in for a trade, you have innate sustain and they don't + turret. They lose more if they fail to insta you) and if they decide to dive before 9, Wither is more than enough to get them killed if they don't flash out immediately since you are hard to take down.

If they use mana, they will run out of it before you even get down to half since you will heal all of them back with your passive (and early Wriggle if they're AD. 30% early Life steal is just mean.)

However, Range AP-manaless type are a major pain. Your Wither -AS doesn't really work on them. Their constant harass also prevents you from freezing lane easily. For example, Akali constant Q is capable of outdamaging your sustain. You know that if you get too low, she will burst you down. Kennen constant Q without your minion shield also works. If your jungler doesn't appear once in awhile to make them too scared to constantly harass you in front of your tower, you're screwed.
