How to Beat Diana as Nunu & Willump (Jungle)

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.

The magic damage that Nunu & Willump deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Diana deals primarily magic damage (79.71%), additional magic resistance may be required.

Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Diana, ranking 3rd (versus 22nd for Nunu & Willump) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.3 versus 2.7) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Nunu & Willump Jungle versus Diana Jungle matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Nunu & Willump player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Diana player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

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 Diana

  • Dodge Crescent Strike, or move to safety if you are affected by Moonlight.
  • Pale Cascade orbs only last a few seconds. Avoid Diana and engage her after the shield dissipates.
  • Diana can play very aggressively if she uses Lunar Rush without Moonlight, but you can punish her by slowing or stunning her when she has no way to get back into position.
