Man, counterjungling is fun. As a relatively noob player (currently unranked, but want to go into ranked once I can play every role decently), I tried Jungle Nunu, and I must tell you that it's really fun :D. I'm practicing jungle now, and I want to improve, so any tips are welcome!

Pros Amazing jungle sustain Pretty fast clear (very fast against single target) Great scuttle/dragon control Counters devourer junglers (AS slow, counterjungle potential) Good roaming potential

Cons Horrible waveclear (only AoE is ultimate) Not a good duelist Not a good engage tank

I play Nunu as a tanky jungler. I rush sightstone, boots (item 3117 if I have enough money), and red trinket, and counterjungle whenever the enemy jungler goes out to gank. I ward enemy jungle, then if I see them on the warded side I go to the other side and counterjungle. I take scuttle crabs often. I take dragons often, usually as soon as it comes up. I get Dead Man's Plate to help with my mobility. Extra damage and slow is nice, too.

My mid-game build usually looks like this. Nunu item 3725 item 2049 item 3117 item 3742 item 3364

Situationally, I get the following items. item 3065 if they have any meaningful source of magic damage, since the passive is amazing on Nunu with his Q, Consume. item 3800 if my team needs an engage. Stats are subpar, though. item 3512 if I need to waveclear. I do have Cinderhulk, but this item lets me to go somewhere else and make an impact. The stats are good, too. item 3110 if I still need more armor and CDR. This items helps me to solo dragon much more easily. item 3050 if I have a fed teammate who can use the AP/Crit chance buff.

To conclude, Nunu jungle is a good jungler to counter Devourer junglers, who need to farm and take scuttle/dragon early.
