Introduction



NUNU AND WILLUMP just got released on the live servers and is the most fun to play champion EVER! I want everyone to enjoy playing the new reworked Nunu and Willump, and pentakill the enemy team for themselves, so I've made it my goal to provide you with regular updates on his builds and gameplay in all roles as well as tips and tricks throughout this guide. So do fave and upvote this guide so you can follow this Nunu and Willump Adventure Guide!:)

Pyke is intended by riot to be a support champion but I certainly believe he has an amazing kit for the jungle role and can even be flexed in the top and mid lane as a pocket pick.

Items

Item wise on Nunu and Willump you have two options: 1) build AP and 1-shot the enemy team, which feels great and makes a good highlight montage or 2) build tank and become an unkillable tank who is able to support your team through CC. Whether you decide to build AP or Tank in your game should be entirely up to you based on your playstyle, situational team comps and what you personally find most fun :) Below, I've listed two example item builds whihc you might find as a useful starting point if you have just instalocked the new reworked Nunu and Willump!

Abilities

New Reworked Nunu and Willump abilities are super fun and strong in my opinion! Aside from his W: Biggest Snowball Ever! he has no true skillshots and aside from using his ult cleverly he should be considered as an easy champion to pick up and play for players of all skills levels, as his playstyle requires more macro than micro game knowledge to be successful.

PASSIVE: CALL OF THE FRELJORD
Damaging enemy champions, large monsters, or structures increases the attack and movement speed of Willump and a nearby ally for a few seconds (prioritizing the ally with the highest attack speed).

While Willump hears the Call of the Freljord, his basic attacks cleave the immediate area for a portion of the damage.


Q: CONSUME
Willump takes a bite out of an enemy, dealing true damage to monsters and minions or magic damage to champions, and heals himself.

The heal is increased significantly when Nunu & Willump are low on health.


W: BIGGEST SNOWBALL EVER!
Willump starts rolling a snowball that grows in size and speed. Crashing the snowball into a wall, enemy champion, or large monster damages and knocks up nearby enemies. Reactivating the ability sends the snowball forward in straight line, damaging and knocking up minions in addition to champions and monsters.

The damage and duration of the knockup increases with the size of the snowball.


E: SNOWBALL BARRAGE
Nunu rapidly flings up to three volleys of snowballs for a few seconds, damaging champions and monsters and marking them Snowbound. Enemies hit by all three snowballs in a volley are briefly slowed.

When Snowball Barrage ends, all Snowbound enemies near Nunu & Willump are briefly rooted.


R: ABSOLUTE ZERO
Nunu & Willump sap heat from the area around them, gaining a shield and increasingly slowing enemies as they channel. Enemies still in the freezing zone when it reaches absolute zero take massive damage, increased based on the length of the channel.

Absolute Zero can be cancelled early, and channelling from brush or fog of war won’t reveal Nunu & Willump.

Gameplay


PLAYING AS NUNU & WILLUMP
Nunu & Willump traverse the wilderness in a flurry of snowy magic and yeti fur, locking down objectives and keeping watch for fellow adventurers. Make quick meals of jungle monsters with Consume after crashing into the camp with the Biggest Snowball Ever! Keep on rolling as you roam between lanes, pelting the bad guys with a Snowball Barrage to slow them down so Willump can have his turn. Once they’re nothing but slush, follow the Call of the Freljord to take yeti-sized chunks out of the nearest tower.

If you’re ready for the best snowball fight of all time, combine a frosty Snowball Barrage with your ult for an avalanche of disruption. Absolute Zero creates an icy no man’s land no foe can cross, protecting friendly folk by zoning the not-so-friendlies. When the snow finally settles, take a final chomp with Consume to slay a legendary beast and become true heroes to all the land.

Tips and Tricks


TIPS AND TRICKS
Stick around after ganking to take an early objective with Call of the Freljord. Willump and another ally will both get the attack speed boost, so be sure to wail on the tower a bit before rolling off to your next adventure.

Ganking with the Biggest Snowball Ever! is a cool move, but once you get the hang of handling, it’s also the fastest way through the jungle. With practice, you can round corners without slowing down and crash into camps to clear multiple monsters at once.

Try channeling Absolute Zero right after using Snowball Barrage. Fling a volley of ice to mark enemies Snowbound, then use the slow from your ult to keep them snowed in while your E winds down, ensuring they’re rooted in place for the big freeze.

Conclusion

NUNU AND WILLUMP is a super fun champion and has a completely unique playstyle that I believe will excel in the jungle as well as being viable in the top and support off-roles, I definitely plan on picking him up in my champion pool and can't wait to let loose of giant snowballs on the rift!
