PBE Nunu Changes- They Be Big Changes And Are Definitely a Buff (Unless You Are Lane Nunu)

(Potentially more while Moobeat continues to look for them)

These changes are very interesting to me. The Q Feed the Yeti buff is incredibly powerful and seems amazing in my eyes. Nunu will have a crap ton of health if Consumes every Jungle Camp on the map (including enemies I assume), giving him a total of 48% Bonus Health on a timer if I am reading this right and it means for him to consume each of the normal camps in each jungle (12), each epic monster (2), and the Scuttle Crabs (2). That's also 160 out of combat movement speed, which is a lot! However, it seems Nunu is forced to eat eat eat or else Willump will starve and be inefficient. Overall, I like these changes. They buff Nunu and secure him into the role that Riot really wants him in (Top Lane Nunu is bad for game health when good).

Hey guys, just saying, Nunu can have 1600+ HP without any items at 8 minutes into the game.

He's probably not going to be able to get that high of a number consistently

very interesting to see them trying to enhance his jungling though, maybe when he gets a more comprehensive rework in the next decade we'll see him really stick out as a utility jungler

I hope they keep this mechanic around. I have been trying it out on the PBE and, later in the game especially, he can have ungodly amounts of health. Like, Dr. Mundo has nothing on this guy! Later on, the buff lasts for about 6 minutes each large monster. The 48% Bonus Health dream would require you to run as quickly as you can across the map, spam eating everything without interruption, but it would be possible for about a minute and a half or so after spam eating.

I mean, this puts an all new meaning to Gourmet Race. I have never been able to get full build with this yet, so I will try and do some rough calculations for maximum health you can gain with this with a build centered around it. item 3009 item 3083 item 1409 item 3068 item 3065 item 3742 9% Health Runes 350 HP Masteries (Scar and SoA)

EDIT: Ok, so, if I calculated this all correctly and I predicted correctly what order the game calculates things in (Bonus Health->Bonus Health % Increase->Base Health->Consume Total Health % Increase->Runes) then Nunu can have a grand total of: 9091 HEALTH! That is, for about a minute and a half after an eating spree, upon which it will slowly decay back down by about 3000ish health over the next couple minutes.
