Hey Riot, can you not change Nunu's kit and just give a VU?

Just saying, his kit is kind of fine at the moment. I mean, how many people play him is primarily based on how you promote him. People didn't pick up Zilean until his rework and even after I can't hear many talk about him. In fact, he's the type of support many Support mains are asking for (and I mean this literally). His support comes from his AS/MS slows or buffs that aren't tied to AP. His heal on his Q goes great with the healing support item or just weakens the large minion or it can be just used as a health/buff to Nunu. And his passive, I even see many say its fine as it is in his kit since his W still works on both himself and an ally meaning the passive will work perfectly. In fact, Nunu is probably one of the most thematic supports you've created that many just aren't using. And its primarily because you don't even try to get people to play older or other off META picks at all.

The real issue with Nunu is just his original model is flat out ugly and he needs some love. He's been needing it for quite some time.

Now, if Nunu becomes a prime pick for a while, then yeah you can nerf his stats or such but honestly he's a fine Support, great first pick for Jungle, and (lets be honest) I don't trust your rework team. You messed around with Graves to the point its hard to use him as an ADC, you nerfed my main support Taric's heal, pretty much made Soraka a glass cannon, and messed up with Mordekaiser.

Now, I will give credit to where its due. Warwick's update may be OP right now but I can see weaknesses and I like it. Sion was probably my favorite update. I liked Poppy's update but I feel bad every time I see her AD get nerfed. And Taric is actually pretty much fine (except for the heal). I like his new ultimate, his E is much better, and though I miss his W's armor buff for allies and debuff for enemies, I'm cool with a shield.

Back to focusing on Nunu, I've played a lot of Support Nunu and found his kit to be anything but bland. If you take the time to read it, you will see that he is what we need in META's where champions love to take up a lot of AS and MS. He completely counters and enhances this. Please don't change anything about his kit because there isn't really any need to change it. You might be like "oh lets take away his serious damage and %AS/MS take away for him to have a little more heal on his Q" because that's retarded and doesn't Support the team... He is a Support/Fighter which means you focus on what benefits the team before Nunu as a champion. And that's exactly what his kit does.

So, again Riot, please (please) takes him out of the roster for full on full relaunch because he's more like Heimerdinger or Karthus who only needed VU to keep them relevant in the game.

See, though you like that about him. They could make his kit focus on that even more. As it is now, he is pretty binary. Snowball, snowball, snowball. W if you need to and Q to heal. Other than that it's just snowballs..
