Smash, what's your whole opinion on the nunu vs fizz matchup, have you had a chance to play against it?

No one plays Fizz top in my games, so no comment really. Can't see Fizz winning though.

Sorry, I think my post got buried, mind if I ask again?

I know you play it top, but do you think this can serve in the jungle? Double GP10 with defenses and 9/21 mastery is pretty jungle standard, and 9/0/21 can even work since his jungle is already super safe and strong. Don't know if you can do Grail and Glacial Shroud out of jungle, though.

I feel like, if so, it can make Nunu a super duper flexible pick, filling 3 roles (4, if you include mid lulzy shit).

I think it could work, but I have a hard time jungling with nunu because I tend to just hurdedur farm in the jungle when my ult is on CD due to my recent mumu spamming.

Yeah, I just never liked my general jungle build on him (mixture of Shurelya, FH, Wit's, and Aegis depending on teams), and figured if I could make this work, he might be my third pick for jungle behind Skarner and Naut.

I played it once, if you build enough MR that he can't combo you, lane is over for him because you can sit there, snowball and auto him whenever he comes for CS, and outheal his harass(only consume without the heal debuff)

I've played irelia twice now and kinda got dumped on twice. One time, granted, I fed fb to a jungler dive, but second game she'd just wqe me and take like 30% of my hp away between consume cooldowns. This was around level 7 and I hadn't backed by then (she had but only had tabi and pots). I tried to snowball her as soon as I saw her run to me but stun would go through and she'd whack me twice or three times with true damage while I was running away. It got easier when I got chalice and shroud but even then trading was impossible so I just resorted to snowballing on cd and farming as safely as I could.

I've tried Nunu top a few times now. It's absolutely hilarious and a lot more fun than expected. Thanks for a great build.

I laned against a swain who last picked after he saw our team comp. This was ridiculously hard. We had jungle ali who never came top but post-6 I think swain could 2v1 us anyway. Am I playing wrong or swain just an odd pick that wrecks me?

Isn't banning Nunu just a really smart and safe play? Think about it this way:

You Get First Pick and pick: Nunu. This tells the opposing team absolutely nothing about your plan. He can go in 3 spots (at least).

They will probably play it safe with an 1. AD/Support Combo, or 2. Support + a jungle (who better not be bad vs. nunu), 3. or sup + a safe mid. In any case, at this point during picks/bans you have a huge advantage because next you can do a lot of things.

1. Counter their bot lane with a ADC + Support, leaving you with the ability to counterpick top/jungle + mid hard.
2. Pick a jungler that counters their jungle (who could go top still in most cases) + a support or ADC.
3. Do whatever you pleases. All the time there is always the threat of Nunu going support, or top, or jungle still.

Then they finish their team, they can't pick any top lane that nunu can crush, so that severely limits their champ selection, you might be able to Counterpick top or mid.

This is exactly why they nerfed other Support's ratios. Not saying I like it, but its how it is.

Noobs like doomtrobo are just making Nunu top seem weaker than it is so we're okay.

When you guys go for jungle nunu how do you play him? I've been opening boots 1 ward/pot and warding a buff really early and looking to get way ahead of their jungle. I've been copying smashs build with 9/21/0, is this alright or do I need to change what I'm doing? Just feels really hit and miss relying on counterjungling so much.

I build my Jungle nunu full retard, because it's always fun to see how people react to it.

I start boots 3 pot. 9/21/0, or 9/13/8(ms), runes are mpen/armor/mrflat/AS quints. First item should be philostone, 2nd item kage's pick (or hog). Then I build bilgewater cutlass, then hextech revolver, gunblade. Triforce (or lichbane), Abyssal, frozen heart etc etc.

Yeah, I get that feeling as well, but as long as your teammates have half a brain, you basically have a free win because you're won lane as fuck and the enemy top is worthless. And you can chunk people pretty well with Snowball, so there's that.

That's just Nunu's niche, though. He's a control jungler and a counter jungler. Your ganks are good but not great, since it relies on the enemy to be susceptible to slow ganks (no blink/dash, pushed far forward), and your laner has to be able to take advantage of AS/MS (less useful on mids, for example). Your job as a jungler when playing Nunu is to just make sure the enemy jungler is useless, and then show up to countergank. You're not a primary ganker like Shaco or Naut.
It's your boy Guzma!
