Hey Thicc,

I'm not a Nem player, but I'd say your damage build looks fine.

For your attack speed build, I don't think I'd get Asi (though it can be helpful for boxing and it fits your "attack speed" motif). I would mostly want to rely on the shield/heal for that burst of sustain/survivability, and get other damage items that have power and/or pen to get as much potential as possible. In that position, I think you might find Stone Cutting Sword to be helpful. The added MS will be nice, and since you can weave basics in-between ability use, you can get some nice stacking.

The situation where I would say Asi would be a more solid choice would be if you chose to go the route of Qin's Sais somewhere in the build. THEN you want as much AS as you can fit, to get the most out of the passive proc. But you're not building Qin's (which is fine)...so thus, a bit less focus on Asi. At least that's how I'd consider it.

Putting both The Executioner (good) and Titan's Bane (questionable) in the same build would be situational at best, and not the best example for a stock build. Remember that her ult steals protections, which is basically protection reduction. 30% is significant, on top of the 36% you get from Exe at max stacks, plus all the extra pen you may build. Although getting TB on top of that would make you a certified tank killer, you're going to see less returns against squishier gods. Instead...I'd probably drop Qin's into that position. Or leave it open for other situational items...

Speaking of situational items, none are listed. I always feel presenting 1 single build isn't the best. Give an example build, list some situational options, explain when to use those options and what you'd sub out. That gives the best direction.

And finally...PLEASE don't get crit on Nem. BLEH.

Putting Titan's Bane and Executioner in the same build without Qin's Sais is terrible. Especially on Kali, Baka and Nemesis.

You don't need Hastened either on Nemesis if you know how to play her properly.

Should be seeing items like Void Shield, Bloodforge, Transcendence, Stone Cutting Sword, etc...

Is attack speed Nemesis that good? I've always built her with abilities more in mind and never tried her focusing on attack speed.

I am a Nem player and I agree with everything Bran said. I'd also bring up having more defenses, but that's personal preference for me.
