1,033K'Sante
690Nasus
K'Sante heavily out-damages Nasus by 343 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Nasus should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting K'Sante's sustained damage advantage take over.

1.9K'Sante
0.7Nasus
K'Sante brings significantly more crowd control than Nasus, with 1.2 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes K'Sante far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights.
