Nunu Jungle Build

Nunu Jungle Guide | Patch 26.17

Nunu thrives as a snowballing jungler with unmatched objective control. At 50.8% win rate across 13K+ games, his early-game power and late-game scaling make him a top-tier pick for ranked queues.

How to play Nunu?

Nunu excels in the early game with strong ganks powered by his passive, *Call of the Freljord*, which grants movement speed to allies. Start with *Consume* to sustain and clear camps efficiently, prioritizing *Big Camp* (Red/Blue) for early level advantage. Mid-game revolves around securing objectives like Dragon and Baron with your ultimate, *Absolute Zero*, which can turn team fights or secure kills. Late-game, Nunu’s strength lies in his ability to peel for carries or engage with his ultimate, though his lack of mobility means positioning is critical to avoid being kited.

💡 Tips for Nunu

• 1.Start *Consume* on your first camp to maximize sustain and clear speed, then switch to *Snowball Barrage* for damage.
• 2.Use *Snowball Barrage* to poke enemies during jungle pathing, forcing them to burn summoner spells or potions.
• 3.Prioritize securing the first Dragon or Rift Herald to snowball your lead early.
• 4.Save *Absolute Zero* for team fights or objective steals, as its cooldown is long and its impact is game-changing.
• 5.Coordinate with your laners to set up vision around objectives before attempting steals with your ultimate.
