Fiddlesticks vs Nunu & Willump

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Prioritize full clears and vision control before forcing early fights against Nunu's strong early gank pressure.
Use superior clear speed and scaling to reach level 6 and leverage (R) for impactful fog ambushes and objective control.

Jungle Plan

Execute efficient multi-camp clears to reach level 6 quickly and prepare for fog (R) engages near objectives.
Contest Scuttle only if lane priority supports it and avoid isolated river fights where Nunu can snowball engage.
Track Nunu's pathing to counter-gank his early ganks and trade cross-map camps when he shows on opposite side.

Danger windows

Beware early invade timings when Nunu can use (W) to gank lanes and force deep wards.
Avoid isolated river fights before level 6 where Nunu's CC chain and sustain give him an advantage.
Exercise caution during forced objective setups when Nunu combines (Q) and Smite for strong secure potential.

Early game

Start with a full clear to maximize tempo and avoid early river fights where Nunu's (W) gank angles are dangerous.
Only contest first Scuttle when nearby lanes have priority to reduce risk of counter-invade.
Reset for control wards and sweepers before setting up around dragon or Rift Herald to deny Nunu's objective starts.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) from fog to create sudden ambushes that can turn objective fights.
Respect Nunu's first dragon or Herald spawn when his (Q) plus Smite secure objectives quickly; prepare vision and counter plays.
Avoid prolonged fights before your level 6 spike as your dueling is weak compared to Nunu's early pressure.

Win conditions

Convert superior clear speed and level 6 ultimate into vision denial and fog ambushes to win objective fights.
Use counter-ganks and cross-map pressure to punish Nunu's early ganks and force him away from camps.
Maintain tempo control to deny Nunu free farm and secure scaling advantage for impactful teamfights.
