Nidalee's total bullshit so I just max Q first and outsustain her. I can't really seem to make her budge and pounce just destroys your ult, so yea, I just treat it as a free farm lane now.

She was annoying as fuck the one time I laned v her. Max consume, realize that you'll never catch her, and try not to let her all-in you, or you're dead.

That's basically counterjungling your teammate.

And stealing the big one and leaving takes too long to do it safely in the enemy jungle.

You should end up @ like 75-80% HP. Attack the large one twice, consume the small one, attack the big one a bit, but spend a lot of time kiting, you only want to eat as many hits as you need to eat in order to hit it enough to get it to just under 500 HP for your consume. So then you show up on lane before any creeps are dead, last hit 2 melee minions, eat then last melee minion, ding 2 and smack the opponent with your formidable yeti paws and snowballs.

How do you kite melee vs melee? It's not like you can get free hits on the golem.

You only need to get the Golem below 500 HP, so you don't need to constantly smack the golem or get free hits on it. Just hit it/get hit by it just enough to get it to 500 HP, run around when you don't need to hit it, so it doesn't get to hit you, and then eat it when Consume comes off CD, that's what he means by kiting it.

I just did 2 games in a row solo top vs. Xin Zhao using Mogwais build and I have to say it wasn't very fair. In the first game I had a pretty consistent 50 CS lead over Xin, and in the second game after Xin died the third time he ragequit and I apologized to his team.

Point being, Mogwais build works v. well. That grail really makes the build, it lets you grab the chalice early to solve your mana issues and turn it into something powerful late game.

I just kite the golem from far left to far right within it's leash distance, striking the golem once each time I change direction. This results in taking no dmg for over 2 seconds each pass and leaves you extremely healthy like 80%+ after the consume and golem heal.

Probably fair. Would hurt jungle Nunu the most. Harder to do low level ganks.

Not surprising. Nunu top ruins almost any melee-ranged autoattackers - especially if he is unprepared mechanically and mentally. He does have some weak match ups, such as Vladimir.

I wouldn't consider Vlad a bad matchup tbh. You can shit on him pretty damn hard before lvl 7 and get quite a sizable lead by the time Vlad is anywhere near a threat to you. Even if you somehow misplay/get camped, maxing Q gives you just as much if not more sustain than Vlad.

Is the Ice Blast nerf going to make Nunu unviable for competitive play? I honestly doubt it, but I am curious nonetheless.

Nunu still very good. The nerf just makes it so you can't maintain Ice Blast debuff with max cdr.

Nunu's competitive viableness comes from infinite sustain in lane + being a big fucking dick with enough mana regen, being able to give a lategame AD carry a free PD, and being able to (almost) maintain a massive move and attack speed slow on any target. He also has massive damage potential from his ult, making him a big cc magnet.

I haven't lost to a vlad since I started running split pen marks and focusing on smacking him upside the head with my yeti paws.

You think the split pen marks are better than pure mpen?

depends on the matchup. vs. most bruisers, you don't want to be in their face, so split pen doesn't do shit, but vs. mages @ top lane, you frequently end up way ahead @ level 4 by Ice Blasting and beating them down with blood boil. you'll notice that I have 2 nunu pages that I use these days, 1 with flat MRes glyphs and SplitPen marks and 1 with scaling MRes glyphs and MPen marks.
