My thoughts on New-Nu

Honestly, this is actually a Solid Rework. I think the last time I felt this way on a rework had to be Swain (Swain & Pyke being my two favorite Releases of 2018 so far) Sure he feels Far different from Live Nunu as I'm still trying to use W to buff my allies instinctively (His new W is his Giant Snowball, keep forgetting the Ally Buff component is on the Passive).

  • His [Q: Consume] is more versatile than the Live rendition & still makes him an easy Champion to Jungle with (they even boost damage & sustain if they fall below 50% HP). Also Willump just straight up eats minions when using Q. It's like watching a Tahm Kench use his [W: Devour], the minions disappear.

  • [W: Biggest Snowball Ever!!!] is one of my favorite things about this rework. As someone who has played ALOT of Sion, this ability just comes natural to me personally. Only difference compared to Sion's Ultimate is that Nunu's W is far easier to control and somewhat easier to land. Also this ability hits like a Snow Plow if Nunu builds full AP, I've watched people on my team get deleted by this ability.

  • [E: Snowball Barrage] is the only ability I find hard to use. So far, It kind of reminds me of Eve's Hate Spike since you have to tap multiple times to get multiple volleys out.

  • I like the fact that they took the time to improve on his Ultimate [R: Absolute Zero] instead of scrapping it. The shield he gets gives him a lil bit more time to channel still retains the ability to channel without being revealed.

  • Nunubot was always my favorite skin, but they even improved that skin with Nunubot 2.0 Nunu even pulls up the Original Nunubot as a Joke in-game.

In conclusion, this is by far one of my favorite reworks of the year & the Design team did a hell of a job bringing Nunu up to date.
