nasus isn't nearly as bad as i'm hearing from this thread. It's still very easy to fail as nasus, and denying early farm does exactly what Busecatu said (took the words from my mouth). If you deny his early game farm you put him in a position where he has to either be a meatshield in team fights and try to catch someone out of position with his slow, or sit in a solo lane and try to catch up on farm. That being said, it's not exactly EASY to keep him from farming, with innate lifesteal and his kit (armor reduc and DPS total-shutdown), if you are (and you probably will be) a melee solotop. I honestly have a hard time judging Irelia's level of balance. Maybe i just play her right, but it's really hard for me not to completely own almost every time i play her. Her E+Q hits really heavy during pretty much all parts of the game and she's REALLY hard to kill if she knows what she's doing. I dare you to not go legendary if you play her.
