Nunu & Willump lore:

Once upon a time, there was a boy who wanted to prove he was a hero by slaying a fearsome monster—only to discover that the beast, a lonely and magical yeti, merely needed a friend. Bound together by ancient power and a shared love of snowballs, Nunu and Willump now ramble wildly across the Freljord, breathing life into imagined adventures. They hope that somewhere out there, they will find Nunu's mother. If they can save her, maybe they will be heroes after all…

Nunu & Willump tips:

  • Consume allows Nunu to stay in a lane against ranged opponents.
  • You can choose to interrupt Absolute Zero early for partial damage if an opponent is about to run out of range.
  • It's often beneficial to delay the casting of Absolute Zero until the initial round of disables are used. Try to hang back before rushing into a team fight.

Playing Against Nunu & Willump

  • Interrupting the charge up on Absolute Zero will lower the amount of damage your team takes.
  • Using Summoner Flash is a surefire way to escape Absolute Zero.
  • Biggest Snowball Ever moves very fast but cannot turn as quickly, so don't try to escape it by running away in a straight line. Instead, make sudden, sharp turns.
