What do you think about support Nunu & Willump.

Is he viable?
What should he skill first, Blood Boil or Ice Blast.
Should he take Heal+ Clairvoyance or is Flash mandatory on him?
With which ad-carries he works best?
Against which comps he has troubles?
Which special items he has to build?

So many questions.^^

I belive that Nunu is still best as supportish tank. Making him full-support isn't kinda worth it. But Nunu is the most supportish tank. Exhaust is a must for lane-nunu but for jungler it's still movement spell.
In ranked games i try to use modern strategies, I have played for example Annie-support a year before it came famous.

My team used him a couple of times, before the Heal buffs.

I think he should get Heal + Clairvoyance and max Ice Blast first for strong early harass. He works best with AD carries that can really play aggressive and make good use of his slow to add to his poke.
Build would be a standard support build, a 'special' item might be Banshee's to be able to land his ult but honestly even with Banshee's that's not easy. In lane you can try to make use of the brush I guess

Support Nunu is scary strong with an AD Carry that relies a lot on autoattacks such as Ashe, Vayne or Caitlyn. Those also have a good synergy with his ult.

Get Flash+Heal on him.
CV is not gamechanging in normals and heal is of a much better use there.
You max Blood Boil, followed by ice Blast.

Just get standard-support items.

Hmm, max Blood Boil?
Didn't play him myself, guess you're right

Maxing Blood Boil first in combination with Vayne or Caitlyn, just scary...

But I think at some ad-champs Ice Blast does a better job. Especially, if a meele decides to lane with you.( Tryndamere for example)

And you should also skill Ice Blast if the enemy ad-carry dominates the lane. It shuts him down hard.

BTW: You know this?


Which runes would you take? I would use:

Runes

Domination
Electrocute
Predator
Fleet Footwork
Phase Rush

Okay, I had now Miss Fortune+ Nunu & Willump vs Vayne+ Alistar. Actually, we had no chance, because we had no jungler and they could push all the time. And we had a Nidalee which flamed all the time.

QFT, yes wayne I told you it is viable n_n. With the heal buff I think I would go for Heal + Clairvoyance as it really works great. Maxing Ice Blast or Blood Boil depends entirely on the situation as long as you don't max Consume you should be fine. ^^

Well I would take Heal to enable your AD carry to stay in lane longer and Clairvoyance(obvius). Maxing Ice Blast should be maxed if you're getting dominated IMO, to prevent towerdiving, blast enemy's health lower and prevent escaping enemies in ganks(since they are over extending), while Blood Boil should be maxed if you're playing aggressively and you are pushing turret a lot and want to get out quick if you're towerdiving. Consume should be taken atleast one point early game, its like free Heal.

A wise man gets more use from his enemies than a fool from his friends.
