People be hatin, we trollin, picking trundle to counter yorick...
We be RIDIN DIRTY!!
But seriously.. I don't think trundle beats yorick. If you both can equally farm and can ignore one another harass... sounds like an even lane to me.

 

[Mogwai]

I think I'm going to transition into playing top lane nunu every game.

 

[DallasPhat]

Grab promote and push for days MOGWAI.

 

[Mogwai]

orrrrr I could not and actually body people rather than feeding every game.

 

[PhantomX]

Top lane Nunu can really ruin some popular tops. I'm pretty sure he murderizes GP, and Salce swears that he owns Ryze too. I'm curious how he would do against Shyvana.

Riven poos on solo Nunu though.

EDIT: Dphat, the thing is Trundle has a couple windows where he CAN beat Yorick in top (assuming 1v1s), whereas Yorick can never really beat Trundle.

 

[Mogwai]

I don't see how Riven's gonna do anything, but then again, I don't see how anyone's going to do anything. I'm just going to throw snowballs at them until they die and if they hurt my feelings, I will eat a creep and it'll be k.

 

[Sinz]

What are your rune pages/masteries for top nunu?

 

[Mogwai]

I dunno, just theorycrafting about it now, gonna put it into practice soon.

but probably 21/0/9
mpen reds, ap quints, defensive seals/glyphs or maybe balls out AP/level seals/glyphs

 

[PhantomX]

Riven maxes shield and uses shield in reaction to your snowball's slow projectile speed. Then at level 6 she kills you, and laughs if you try to use your ulti.

 

[Mogwai]

dunno, need to play it. I can see the areas where she's potentially a problem, but nunu's incredibly strong top on paper.

 

[Wave⁂]

I take it you probably wouldn't build balls out straight AP Nunu?

 

[Mogwai]

I take it you probably wouldn't build balls out straight AP Nunu?

balls out straight AP nunu would be useless later on, so obviously you gotta get some tanky **** at some point. Dunno how balls out you can afford to be in lane, needs testing.

 

[PhantomX]

I think WotA rush and tanky, maybe mid game DCap is what you see on him. WotA + consume is silly.

 

[Coney]

It's a lot of fun. Early revolver = 3/4ths health off one consume.

 

[Mogwai]

I like the idea of cata revolver roa wota tanky, dcap when you can afford the offensive investment.

 

[PhantomX]

Why not just hold the cata and build it into BVeil later?

 

[A Pimp Named Slickback]

I would save the catalyst for a banshees instead of roa



Ninjad

 

[UTDZac]

Pete learning the hard way scrimming with CLG.EU that you can't team fight as an AD carry. Got caught three times. They lost three team fights. GG

 

[Mogwai]

people don't like RoA enough. RoA's ****ing crazy, especially if you're trying to tank out with resists afterwards. like, the pure stat efficiency on the item is completely absurd, whereas banshee's is all about the shield, which is situationally very useful but depends largely on the comps.

 

[A Pimp Named Slickback]

Also I think GP would be a strong counter to nunu top

 

[Mogwai]

Also I think GP would be a strong counter to nunu top

Really doubt it. GP's like a weak version of Pantheon early in lane and Nunu completely bodies Pantheon if he specs and plays correctly.

 

[PhantomX]

GP gets destroyed by Nunu top.

Also reason I say Bveil is because you are Nunu. I know RoA is good for APs that wanna build tanky, but in this case more channel time = more ****.

 

[A Pimp Named Slickback]

Why? I would think the ability to return harass, the ability to remove snowball rebuff, and dueling strength would give him a solid advantage

 

[fkacyan]

I think Shyvana would manhandle Nunu. Start boots +3 pots + W, stick to him through snowball all day.

 

[Turazrok]

Dphat is the only one who taunt me specific champs iirc. :/ skarner udyr wat up.
Oh wow wtf my page loaded weird as ****. Where did page of Posts come from?

 

[Mogwai]

I doubt it, but what do I know.

 

[PhantomX]

But he can snowball you before you reach him, while speedboosting himself, and slowing your AS, which decreases all your DPS... and then he can heal huge chunks of health. I don't know much about Nunu's mana issues, but if he can keep his mana up Shyv would lose that for sure.

Shyv could probably just megapush and then leave though.

@jamal Nunu snowballs hit harder than gun (not counting crits) and are on a lower CD, and he can heal a lot more more often for much more. And post 6 GP has nothing to interrupt Nunu ult alone.

 

[FluxWolf]

Pretty sure AP nunu is bad.. id think using him for his utility later on would be better (since u will NEVER get ur full ult off except vs very bad players)

full tank nunu = wtf later game loll

and ive tried promote + bloodboil b4 LOL its ****

 

[DMG]

Nunu beats GP in lane because GP manawise gets boned if he wants to do anything about Nunu. Your W CD is too high to just be able to go in whenever, his snowball will be up constantly. His heal is also stronger and will scale with AP/spellvamp. You get outhealed out harassed (also in part because of Nunu passive) can't go in on him etc. You burn through mana while he gets free spells and will likely be going catalyst/something along those lines to keep his mana up even more. Just don't do it, don't see Nunu and go GP and lane vs him. Go jungle at that point lol

 

[Turazrok]

What do you guys think of Munro jungle? Saw it on solomid, but I only ever did that to troll jpak :/

 

[fkacyan]

At base, Nunu starts with 213 mana with a 42 per level growth. Regen is 6.6 with an aditional .5 per level.

His mana costs are 60 for Consume, 50 for BB, and 65+10*rank for Snowball. Slow on Snowball lasts 4s.

Shyvana has absolutely no costs on anything. You're looking at maybe four snowballs if you're not even using Consume / BB early on, and Shyvana can heavily deny Nunu last hits by superpushing into the tower so he can't easily buy more sustain. Then she can go and take doublegolems / wolves while he shoves your creeps back off of the tower.

Nunu's Snowball starts out as a 20% slow. Shyvana's W is a 30% increase at the start, and she also starts out with 10 more base movespeed than Nunu.

Maybe I'm wrong in this analysis (I've NEVER seen Nunu top), but Shyvana's ability to push will hurt him HARD early and once she gets some MR going his harass will mean literally nothing, and she can easily prevent him from farming.

 

[Bartolon]

Irelia beats nunu in lane ofc.
Better nerf irelia.

 

[DMG]

Irelia is a lesbian

[Turazrok]

Irelia beats nunu in lane ofc.

Day 1 of coming to this thread and I already like what I'm seeing

 

[fkacyan]

Benching Elementz?

Better buff Heal

Buffing Heal?

Better nerf

Spoiler

Clarity.

 

[Wave⁂]

So I started reviewing Tribunal cases.

I wish I had a gun so I could shoot myself.

You're making the yeti angry (by ignoring his passive and mana regen in his spec)

does anyone use that program that switches the recommended items shown for certain characters to what you want?
