Fizz vs Nunu & Willump

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Prioritize early jungle tempo and river control to disrupt Nunu's fast objective starts and gank paths.
Use Fizz's high mobility and burst to punish Nunu's weak isolated dueling and capitalize on counter-gank opportunities.

Jungle Plan

Track Nunu's position and lane priority to counter-gank his early ganks and disrupt his tempo.
Invade Nunu's jungle when he is on the opposite side or after he commits to early objective starts to steal camps.
Use vision and river control to contest dragon and Rift Herald only when your lanes can support or after successful ganks.

Danger windows

Early levels before 3 when Fizz lacks his full combo and is vulnerable to Nunu's ganks and objective pressure.
When Nunu has vision control and can approach with (W) from fog, avoid isolated river fights.
Forced smite fights around dragon or Herald when Nunu combines (Q) with Smite; only contest with lane priority or numbers advantage.

Early game

Execute a fast, efficient first clear to reach level 3 quickly and unlock your full burst combo for early skirmishes.
Contest the first Scuttle Crab only if nearby lanes have priority to avoid getting caught by Nunu's early ganks.
Avoid isolated river fights before level 6 where Nunu's (W) and (E) combo can heavily punish you.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks Fizz's full engage and escape combo; use this to punish Nunu's weaker dueling and force skirmishes.
Level 6 (R) grants strong burst and pick potential; look for all-ins or roams to snowball advantages.
First completed AP assassin item significantly increases kill threat; pressure lanes and objectives more aggressively afterward.

Win conditions

Convert early jungle tempo and successful ganks into immediate dragon or Rift Herald attempts to deny Nunu's objective control.
Use superior dueling and burst to invade and steal camps when Nunu is on the opposite side or after his ganks fail.
Leverage level 6 pick potential and mobility to pressure across the map, forcing Nunu into reactive play and securing teamfight access.
