Thornmail's Thorns sends 20 plus 6% bonus AR plus 1% bonus HP back at an attacker as magic damage when you are struck by an attack, and Entwine applies 50% Grievous Wounds for 3 seconds to an enemy champion who attacks you or takes damage from you.

Nunu & Willump Strengths

✓Fast, hard-to-avoid ganks with the snowball
✓Strong objective securing with Skill 1 plus Smite

Nunu & Willump Weaknesses

×Damage falls off late and momentum fades
×Ult is easily interrupted by hard CC

Early Game

Fast jungle clear with the Skill 1 consume is your main strength. Once you have a few levels, roll the snowball (Skill 2) and gank early. Get your laners ahead.

Mid Game

Secure Dragon and Herald with Skill 1 and Smite together so they cannot be stolen. Keep pressure on the whole map with fast snowball rotations.

Late Game

Late game, with your damage falling off, play as a peel tank protecting your carries. Fully channeling Ult from an unwarded brush as an ambush, the so-called 'Empire', can turn a fight at once.

Teamfights

Crash the big snowball into the middle of the enemy team to spread CC and start the engage. If an enemy assassin closes on your allies, protect the carry with the Skill 3 root. Peeling is also part of your job.

⚠️ Common Mistakes

Starting the snowball in enemy vision

Avoid starting the Skill 2 snowball while an enemy ward can see you. Your movement is obvious, easy to dodge, and invites a counterattack. Clear vision with a Sweeper lens and roll a full-size snowball from river blind spots or deep in the jungle.

Nunu & Willump Patch History

NunuPatch 7.1h

Nerf

Consume Bonus HP damage ratio: 6% → 5% Bonus HP regen ratio: 12% → 10% Snowball Barrage Snowball damage: 10/14/18/22 → 8/12/16/20 Nunu & Willump's payoff for stacking HP shrinks on both ends. Consume converts less bonus HP into damage and into regeneration, so a tanky build recovers more slowly while rotating through camps. Snowball Barrage loses 2 at every rank as well, cutting the pressure he brings when he shows up in a lane. Building HP is still the right direction — it simply scales more gently than before.
