I know it's been awhile since you've updated the build or had a comment but I just wanted to say that I love the build and the idea. I think the new preseason and some of the changes will be very kind to Nunu. I also think this build can throw a curveball in champion select because one one is thinking, "That's Nunu support." unless you're last pick. I'd like to see some unfavorable enemy match-ups added, I ran your build against a Caitlyn the other day and lets just say Traps can hurt, lol! Don't let your build go, give us a pre-season update soon! :)

Oh yeah, one last thing. I feel like vision is even more important compared to traditional supports because with Support Nunu because you really need that element of surprise with the whole snowball thing. At least you don't have the whole Beep Beep fire alarm, I'm comin' through Sion Ultimate sound. :)

Thanks for the interest! I'll spend some time with Nunu and feel out some updates for this guide!
Expect to see them Soon™

Can I just ask why not gathering storm and adaptive force for secondaries?

I upvoted, but just curious though because wouldn't adaptive damage better a lane than ms?

Nunu Doesn't need a lot of raw damage to be effective. For all intents and purposes, he is still a tank and is going to be most effective when you can focus on his health and sustain so you can deliver your poke and CC without feeding kills. This is complimented by the fact that health is one of the cheapest stats you can build on a support's income.

The movespeed from his runes is there for roaming and scuttle control. The bonus damage from celerity is noticeable sometimes (if you get a really big hit on a rolling snowball), but it is purely coincidental with the ability to roam and be there in the first place.

I just wanna say thank you for the idea. I really had fun with Nunu Support. But i have one question. Would'nt Ancient Coin be better because you are faster to roam.

The Roaming Aspect is actually less important than how you expect lane phase to pan out.

Relic is generally better for tanks so you can provide some additional heal in lane (for you and your Marksman), Guaranteee Cannon executes, and be a little extra healthy/tanky. Relic Also mitigates some of your CS cannibalism from Consume [Q] when you need to heal. Coin is better if you anticipate AVOIDING engages and just want to collect coins passively.

Relic tends to win on Nunu, because he is an engage tank. Even when playing passively, you eventually need to turn and cc, and the extra health can matter alot. However, if you are staring down a very punishing lane to engage into, you can take coin and just play it safe.

Great guide i like it! :)

Chapters are a bit messy tho this guide will help you with that! :)

I removed some of the snowflake spacers and reformatted some sections. Let me know if there are any others that still seem messy. Thanks for the input!

You know what, it looks great!

The only thing i can say that looks just a lil bit "messy" might be the introduction. Like maybe add some images, or text colors to make it more "alive" if thats how you say it.

Except that the chapters arent done and "i think" you will add more, so far it looks great :)
