i've heard people say this is the best skin in the game

(i am not using lcoed screen)

after i use my w and crash into monster and/or enemy chapions my screen will lock.

only way i have found to remove the lcok is to:

1: manually lock my screen

2: unlock it

3: press on the map then it might be free again

4: repeat 1-3 untill it is free

any1 found a way to resolve this? happens 10+ times a game.

Hey, I’m pretty bad at League and I’ve never made it out of Silver. I play a lot of Nunu, mostly AP, and I’m trying to get better at him.
Most guides I find are pretty basic, so I wanted to ask some more experienced Nunu players a few things:
What are your favorite jungle paths on AP Nunu? When do you go for 3 camps into a gank vs full clear?
Are there any W tricks or weird gank angles I should learn?
Who do you guys usually ban? What are the worst matchups for Nunu?
Which matchups are actually easier than people think?
How do you deal with junglers who invade you early?
Any tips for landing better Rs or getting more damage out of AP Nunu?
What’s something you wish you knew when you first started playing Nunu?
I play tank sometimes too, but AP is definitely what I enjoy the most.
I’d appreciate any advice, especially less obvious stuff that you only learn after playing the champ for a long time. I really wanna improve, so feel free to point out things I might be doing wrong.

What do you think it will be?

Basic gameplay and short playthrough aside, it was just amazing to play my one of my favourite characters in league lore in the Freljord setting, which I find more interesting than Demacia, Ionia, Noxus and Piltover/Zaun. The music was peak and they really captured the love and friendship of Nunu and Willump. Love the cameos of other league characters too.

I've died so many times in the early phase of the game because I'm so squishy. Many player I've watched uses Hextech or Solari as their first item. I know building tank items early on causes you to not have any damage but isn't that the point of Nunu to initiate and let hour team mates take the kill?

hello, long time ago I used to play nunu a lot, then I stopped after the items rework.

now i want to play nunu again! is there any guides or anything to start?

Hey, it’s been a week since that feature was removed (for those who don’t know, it’s the F keys during Nunu’s W), and I’d like to share my thoughts on this issue : how I feel about it, what my gameplay is like now, and what steps I plan to take in the hope of getting that feature back.

I’d also like to introduce myself as a Nunu player who’s been playing this champion for about 3 or 4 years now he’s my OTP. I don’t want to use the screenshots I just posted to imply that everything I’ve said is correct, but I do want to start a discussion and see how you all feel about it, because as a Nunu player who has reached Challenger twice and is now back again to try to reach that rank once more, I’d like to share my thoughts regarding the removal of this particular feature.

My Feelings

Let’s start with how the champion feels after playing him for a week. In many games, I felt how this feature used to let me freely make decisions about how I should position myself relative to the snowball, which target I should prioritize to make the most of the insights I’d gained such as whether a champion lacks a dash or a summoner spell and use that information to choose my target, position my snowball correctly, and choose the best path to attack the opponent.

Regression in Micro and Macro Gameplay

I felt this strongly this week; when I use a specific snowball, my gameplay becomes more static; I focus more on the entire map, watching to see if a certain character is moving very quickly and, based solely on that information, trying to determine whether they’ve used any abilities or not, still without any certainty (not to mention that I don’t want to keep looking at the snowball because I can do so much more at that moment, just like before when I used the F keys and could drastically change how I play). I felt that the ganks I attempted were, in many cases, unsuccessful because I wasn’t absolutely sure whether the enemy had a specific ability or summoner spell, and I was just wasting my own tempo on that particular target (It might sound like silly talk, but I’m saying this as someone who would really like to climb as Nunu again and go for Challenger like I used to, and I’ve started doing full clears of the first camps more often so I don’t waste my time on ganks that would have been successful back then because I could use that function, but now it’s it turns out I can only consciously say that this champion has a certain ability and that one doesn’t which is a coin flip).

Full Potential and Tempo in the Discussion

There’s not much more to it than that, but as I’ve mentioned in many posts, this is a regression in micro and macro gameplay. As Nunu, I used to be able to exploit and use this champion to its full potential, showcasing incredible things you can do. You can still achieve amazing things, but removing this feature clearly falls short if you can’t have a chance to know whether a particular snowball you’re rolling based on the time it takes, the time it takes to reach the lane, and the time it takes to leave it which can range from 10 to 15 to 20 seconds, depending on the situation you’re in (so the lose of tempo and saying Nunu can ignore tempo is the most copium thing ever that i can debate on it)

My Progress as a Player Thanks to the F Keys, Document In Progress

I feel a certain sadness at having to say goodbye to this, but not forever, because I plan to create a document and a petition to restore this feature, showing the sequence of events from the very beginning and refuting Riot’s arguments with counterarguments about why this feature should remain in the game even though only a small handful of people used it , it showed how a player could learn a lot because thanks to it, I learned to perfectly time all the cooldowns of specific opponents’ abilities, and by doing and repeating this, I trained my mind to know when a given champion would have an ability ready and what to prepare for.

Final Thoughts

Thank you for reading this rather long post (I thought it would be shorter, lol), and this removal won’t discourage me from playing the champion I love with all my heart, it will only strengthen my desire to play him now and fight alongside you all to get Riot to restore this ability for us. This isn’t a fight just to challenge Riot, but to restore a feature that will let us once again experience how incredibly we can execute actions thanks to that key foundation we had and maybe will have again. Good luck, my Notai brothers.

please im desperate

I made a Change.org petition asking Riot to bring back F-keys during W

A lot of us have been complaining about the 26.19 change, so maybe this helps get their attention.

Appreciate any signatures.

[I was writing a reply to another post in this sub about the recent “bug fix” but I ended up writing waaaay more than I thought I would so I decided to make this post.]

After seeing the bullshit AI reply someone got when they tried to get an actual answer out of Riot regarding this “bug fix”, I feel like Nunu’s win-rate hitting 35% is the only thing that would actually get Riot’s attention.

Riot WANTS Nunu to be disproportionately weak. They have absolutely no desire or intention to “balance” the champ at all, why else would they nerf him under the guise of a “bug fix” right after they replaced his keystone rune (phase rush) with one that offers a fraction of the utility AND when they already nerfed his AP scaling and cooldowns earlier in the same f*cking season!

Personally, I think the only reason Riot even did this “bug fix” is because a day or two before it was “patched” I saw a video on this sub of someone using an F key to target their own champion while they’re in W and that allowed them to move their camera seemingly unrestricted. I don’t think it’s this person‘s fault for publicizing this discovery at allll, I think that if Riot didn’t want players moving their camera while they’re looking at themselves and are in W they should’ve dug into their spaghetti ass code and gotten their hands a little dirty instead of doing a quick fix that obviously removes a long held aspect of skill expression for the champion. But they didn’t because (and here’s where I go full conspiracy theory) there is a genuine desire to get us and everyone else to stop playing Nunu.

ANYWAY, we either gotta band together and build a serious campaign to get Riot’s attention (definitely sign the petition against the “bug fix”, but I think we need something more) or find a new main (but NEVER a new favorite🥺)

What do yall think? Am I crazy?

This is one of the laziest changes I’ve ever seen a mechanic that didn’t ruin the game for anyone, but actually added a better playstyle to a champion whose entire power relies on snowballs hitting specific enemies. I used those F keys for at least a year to time my snowball perfectly and know whether I should go for a specific gank or if it wasn’t worth it at all or to choose a target. (I’m talking about using my snowball at that specific time while using F keys to change my direction, of course).

Not only is this champ very difficult to play (High Elo only), but he’s also incredibly lackluster because he’s one-dimensional when it comes to ganks, and he’s super easy to counter with any champ. So now, when you’re about to launch a snowball and can’t even use the F keys to see who’s a better target or what the enemy has wasted, you’re just praying that this particular target will be perfect to hit relying on a coin-flip to see if it’ll work or not. Well done, Riot make Nunu more weak when he is already in a bit of not a good state.

They didn’t intentionally nerf Nunu just so people could use different camera angles to look at different lanes, XD. Nunu has a lot of bugs: for example : the snowball’s hitbox is VERY large, and there are situations where, if you’re next to a wall, the snowball will go to the left or right instead of in the direction you want it to go, or the snowball bug where, because Nunu is too fast, he can turn the snowball 180 degrees in the opposite direction :) (That bug ruined a few games for me) and ect.

I’m really disappointed that a mechanic which simply demonstrates your skill with a particular champion has been completely removed from the game, preventing him from using it to strategically decide on flanks for ganks. Champions like Aurelion Sol are allowed to use it during their W, but Nunu isn’t allowed to use it during his W? It’s crazy that they’ve thrown out such an interesting mechanic and on top of that, nerfed Nunu. There’s also a specific bug with Sylas : if he casts Rek’Sai’s R and that R doesn’t finish casting, it instantly resets his R, allowing him to USE IT AGAIN.

BUG FIXED AS OF 26.19!!

To the original post > https://x.com/askinganymore/status/2100684463059472683

Basically instead of F key-ing to gather intel when rolling down the snowball, you bind Select Self, tap the bind once then move the camera like you normally would! To center yourself again, you must hold the bind again.

You can find the option in Hotkeys > Camera Control.

Am I the only one who was not aware of this mechanic????

"Pull the fur outta your earholes, Willump!” ☃️ Nunu and Willump show off their unbreakable bond in this champion splash art for Legends of Runeterra from Riot Games.

Splash art needs to capture attention and tell a story in just a single illustration.

When splash art also doubles up as card art, the challenge becomes balancing that with readability for in-game use.

This art from the team is the perfect example of getting that balance right. 💪 Artist: Gabriel Rubio https://www.artstation.com/artwork/rzJVa6

Hi yall. I’m having a consistent problem in games where my teammate that I camp or I gets a 700 gold bounty when I go full AP. Some games I don’t die and we win. Other games I or my teammate die once and it feels like the game is just over. I know I can’t control my teammate, and I also know the answer is “don’t die”, but I’m curious if others run into this issue. It’s only really been a problem since I decided to play as AP Nunu and it feels very hard to not die ever

Once I die once it snowballs quite quickly from there
