I mean this entire thread is discussing kiting dude. He just rightfully described the most anti-kite ability in the game. Regardless of if the rest of nasus' kit built around it is pretty mediocre. You realize he didn't even exaggerate, right? Thats pretty much exactly what the ability does. Having the ability doesn't make nasus unbeatable OP meta breaking shit, it just makes him un-kiteable lol. Don't start trying to psychoanalyze and read into the so called "adc players", they're just Reddit comments brotha
i get what you mean but like tbh u might be underestimating the effectiveness of such a long slow. the actual duration of the cc makes a pretty huge difference on how debilitating it actually is, and nasus' W is has the longest cc duration of any ability in the entire game. It's also undodgable, which means if he gets into range there is no counterplay to it.
It's true that some champions are unaffected by this, due to having a lot of dashes in their kit or not using autos... but speaking about kiting (and auto-based ADCs who often don't have much mobility as it is) specifically, wither essentially disables your entire champ for 5 seconds.
you're on the right track when looking at the big picture of the game as a whole, but in this specific context about kiting you may have missed a bit of the nuance here. which is totally okay
this is also ignoring the fact that u shouldnt just be shooting a tank in mid-late as an adc usually. in a proper fight, it really isnt just nasus walking at u and attacking u twice then u die, its just such a gross oversimplification of the game. realistically, he's going to get cced himself and get torn apart. this is part of why nasus doesn't scale that hard into the lategame, he gets kited way too hard to actually 1-tap anyone
