I'd just like to say, Teemo is one of the biggest bags of shit I've had the pleasure of laning against. It's k, I just farmed and was more useful later on, but annoying nonetheless.

Yeh, I don't like RoA on Nunu top.

I do really like gp/10s into frozen heart, and then shurelya + raduin's gives 40cdr. I've noticed a lot of people going chalice, but I don't really experience much mana issues.

Also, hooray for solo baron.

wat how do you not have mana issues on nunu? the entire lanephase is spamming spells that cost mana.

my laning phase as nunu basically consists of last hitting and spamming snowballs on cooldown. a big part of why Nunu is so good top is because he can spam snowballs that not only hit hard, but prevent the other guy from trading and is on a ridiculously low cd. in order to spam snowballs though, you need chalice.

If solo top Nunu has one core item, it'd be Grail.

Before you get chalice you are reliant on your passive to spam

Also, nunu absolutely wrecks Teemo. Heavy ap damage against a ranged ad champ and no hard cc? Yes plz

I dunno man, I was, and then he just started autoing me and did so much damage my level 2 Consume couldn't keep up. Dat poison scary, but I think it was just a cheese rune/mastery setup to have a fuckton of damage or something.

Do you think the OP's build is efficient for jungling with Nunu?

It's outdated and comes from when hp quints were broken and jungle creeps were stronger

Flat hp quints? meh

How about the item build? That's more what I meant. I should have specified, sorry.


Oddone just played jungle nunu in IPL. Build was 3 gp10 into aegis/shurelia/zeke for aurabot nunu. That seems like an efficient build for the lower farm you get out of jungle compared to top lane.

He also does a semivariant of the Smash build, but with Shurelia instead of anything chalice related, thus costing less money. (jungle nunu isn't trying to harass someone out of lane, so he's not as ridiculously mana hungry.)

2-3 GP10s -> Glacial + Shurelia + Aegis -> FH.

Doesn't do the revolver/wota, but I think it'd be great if you can afford a wota after the FH.

I've seen people do this on alot of jungles before anyone even thought of playing nunu top, with the smash build. Glacial first could prob be substituted for a negatron or something if AP was getting fed tho

Spirit visage, perhaps?

grail has mr... Grail+Mercs is usually sufficient magic resist to survive fights np, especially since Nunu has one of the highest base hp in the game and consume gives you some more EHP if there are minions around.

I meant for the jungle build, which isn't usually looking to build Grail (too expensive)

Wit's end is pretty good in the jungle I think.

EDIT: Aegis too.

haypot plays a lot of jangle nunu and he runs some like, BoM, Philo, Oracles, HoG opening into Aegis/FH/Wit's option with BV/Randuin's/Locket finishes.

so no X-man claws, spending too much on too little that actually halps nunu. the reason Wit's is useful is because of the lack of good MRes options, with Wriggle's, he has too many good armor options to go for it (plus the sustain is redundant).

I spam snowball off CD but still do not run out of mana... I auto-attack the wave down like a boss though, and my mid wards river so I'm safe vs. most junglers. Had some bad experiences with Malphites who walk up to me from lane like a boss and R my face, but generally you can play like that.

If that were the case he would be better off building chalice and replacing his runes

Gandhi won't allow me to play any other jungler than Nunu atm.

I go full tank out of the jungle. I rather enjoy Sunfire, but Aegis and Frozen Heart (Glacial Shroud) are both really strong early buys. Tank Nunu doesn't get much out of CDR past lane phase, but he has really high base HP so FH and Aegis both go well on him. Sunfire gives you a bit of added damage since you can stay glued pretty easily to a priority target, but struggle to do much with it.

That said, you spend much of the time just playing peeler for your carries, so Sunfire's usefulness is often diminished.

I've tried Wits and MBR but neither really did much for me.

Banshee Veil can be really useful on Nunu as you can double the amount of CC they need to waste to block your ult, making it that much harder to reach your carries. It also helps you to run up and slow something and set up a strong follow-up or counter-initiate.

Given general team comps I usually just end up with Mercs + Aegis + Scaling MR runes for my MR and then FH and Randuins.

Worry mostly about maximizing the damage your carries do / minimizing what they receive rather than trying to do the sick deeps with your ult.

Nunu is a good early Oracle holder.

Don't need randuin, get the last few % from masteries. (do you really need ANOTHER AS slow? If so, you can still get randuin i guess.)
