Just picked up Nunu & Willump in Wild Rift and need a few pointers?
Don't worry, just read on for our guide and you'll be a master of the jungle in no time!
Runes
Despite his childish appearance, Nunu is one of the fiercest junglers in Wild Rift. His Biggest Snowball Ever! allows for great ganks from the river or lane, with no escape. This build aims to optimise this, so that your laners can get ahead.
Phase Rush is a fundamental rune to this, as it allows you to stay within contact of your target, once the snowball connects.
In red, Brutal offers a good stock of offensive stats so you can have an impact in the early game, while Hunter - Titan in green gives you a significant amount of extra HP if you manage to successfully gank multiple lanes.
Finally, Pathfinder in blue is a must for ganking and clearing camps faster.
Skills
Here is the optimal skill order. Max out the abilities as outlined in the graphic below, though make sure you rank up your ultimate whenever you can.

We've put together a list of the most important items for Nunu & Willump, ranked by their effectiveness. Items in bold are must-have items that you'll opt for in most, if not all, of your matches on this champion.
Tips & Tricks
- A relatively inexpensive ability in terms of mana cost, Biggest Snowball Ever! can also be used to move faster from camp to camp.
- Consume is an instant-cast spell, which you can pair with your Smite to steal Dragons or Baron Nashor from the enemy team, without them being able to react.
- Hiding in a bush before triggering Absolute Zero can surprise pursuers, as you'll be able to quietly channel the ultimate.
