I was wondering a little about top lane Nunu & Willump (normal games, not ranked). How would you build him? I would suppose that tank is the superior way, but I was thinking a little about some tanky AP build or some fighter-esque kind of approach. Would it work at all? Especially wondering about the fighter approach.

i believe you build him AP actually. you do something like, 2 AP items, and then pure tank IIRC

AP Top lane Nunu is a stupidly hard counter to champions with no/little poke because you just E them to death due to his passive and build AP and then CDR/Health with frozen heart/spirit visage. It's pretty much jungle Nunu without SoTAG.
Fighter would be funny with his W and BotRK.

Basically MOBAFire.

If I went top with Nunu I would probably build a death cap first then a Rylais if I'm ahead, or if I'm behind I would rush a Rylai's then a death cap


Then I would just build tank items on him.
I stole this Sig idea from SoapSuds

Where is your awesome Liandry's Torment? Also, Rylai's is rather meh, you already slow on every ability you do, so the slow would only have dimishing effect. I would rather get Rod of Ages.

Fighter Nunu & Willump could potentionally work as he has an MS buff + (nearly) permanent slow. But yeah, no real gap closer still hurts. Try out this: http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/build/feral-flare-nunu-382319 for top go Blade of the Ruined King instead of Feral Flare.
He is gonna kill you!!!

Having playing Nunu top, I kinda know what to build on him. I usually go RoA/Abyssal + Sightstone (I usually build sightstone after catalyst or blasting wand). RoA/Abyssal give you the tankiness and damage you need. Sightstone is great for objective control, you can still counterjungle with your Consume and the extra ward coverage helps your team A LOT. After that, just build full tank with items like Locket of the Iron Solari, Frozen Heart, etc. You can build mercs, tabi, or sorcs if you're fed for boots.
