How do you beat nunu in mid as Leblanc

Demi Mise··1 votes·905 views

I just laned against a nunu in mid as leblanc at first i thought it will be easy because he is a melee and I can just constant harass and q w poke him down and chase him out of lane, but I was wrong and got completely obliterated by him. I started the game by constantly auto-attack him when he goes for cs and w him when its available and I was pushing him out of lane until level 2, he eats one minions and healed all the damage I done to him and his snow ball poke is so annoying, I end up out of mana to poke him and too low health to fight him. Then after my first back I never stood a chance against him because he just constants snow ball me and eat minion to heal the damage I do to him. Every time I go back to lane he just harass with his snowball and force me out of lane after 3 snow balls and I end up being 3 levels and over 60 cs behind him at 10 minutes, till the point even enemy support is higher level and more fed than me. I even rushed abyssal scepter to counter his snow ball poke and I still stands no chance. Please offer me some tips to play against nunu in midlane or top lane as leblanc or other champs thanks.

yes morellicon is my first item then I rushed abyssal scepter, I had ignite as well. despite having grievous wounds, he got ahead of me before I got morellicon and kept a 3 level lead. He got so strong to the point where he can take my full burst then snow ball me out of lane, I never reached late game as my team forfeited at around 25 minutes.

well as a Leblanc if u lose early u are basically a non factor. he beat u by being able to not let u kill him.

im sure u didnt expect nunu mid so when u saw it u didnt have an idea til lane started.

You should have just pushed him under turret and roamed. Nunu can't CS under turret for shit.

Problem is that Nunu has a good range on his harass that does retarded damage for a big slow. He has massive lane sustain and is a dedicated tank to boot. Overall, he's not a good matchup for Leblanc.

This is the kind of lane where you should just play passive in and farm. Trying to trade is worthless because any damage he does auto wins the trade since Consume heals him for so much. Leblanc roams better than Nunu, though and while he's annoying to lane against, he doesn't have much kill pressure unless you just stand there letting him get you to 20% health.

If he spams his abilities then he runs out of mana super fast. 5 autos lets him cast his next spell for free, though, so if he's autoing creeps a lot and just throwing snowballs for harass, stay back, farm with autos or Q and waveclear with distortion. Roam and gank other lanes and get them snowballing, which in turn will help you snowball.

good range? his range is terrible and that is part of the reason why he sucks.

Get some CD,nuke the wave with W R and roam bot/top,he has 0 pushing power your r will be up when you come to gank,if he takes 1st mid tower you and your bot take btm one,he cant push you in your 2nd because he can be 4maned easily,and he has no escapes...you have 2.Abuse your mobility and roam power and get other lanes/youself fed,it doesnt matter if you have 20-30cs less if you are pushing his btm inhib tower at lvl 12

its not common so i dont think youd have to worry about it. but leblanc is weak to both poke and sustain and also if she cant kill you in lane you basiclly win. which is why i play ap ezreal into her an if she jumps to me E out the way an return W Q poke. if she can never kill me and i can farm safely then i win the lane.

Try clearing the wave on arrival and go roaming. Roaming is king mid lane.

I guess Leblanc can't do too efficiently without using the ult though.
