Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Nunu & Willump's superior objective control and tankiness to secure early river scuttles and deny Kha'Zix jungle tempo.
Focus on vision control around jungle entrances to prevent Kha'Zix from isolating targets and snowballing through picks.

Jungle Plan

Use tankiness to absorb damage and force Kha'Zix to engage first, then punish with (Q) and (W).
Maintain positioning near jungle camps and river bushes to avoid isolated burst trades.
Disengage promptly if Kha'Zix's key cooldowns are up or if lanes lack priority to assist.

Danger windows

Be cautious around level 6 when Kha'Zix can isolate and burst you down if caught alone.
Avoid fighting near isolated jungle entrances or narrow river paths where Kha'Zix thrives.
Watch for Kha'Zix invading after early clears when your health or cooldowns are low, especially if lanes lack priority.

Early game

Prioritize a fast, healthy full clear to reach first scuttle before Kha'Zix can contest.
Avoid early isolated 1v1 fights unless Kha'Zix is low or out of position.
Secure early scuttle vision to track Kha'Zix's path and enable safer counterjungling or ganks.

Power spikes

Exploit power spike after jungle item and level 6 by controlling objectives and forcing fights where you can tank damage.
Respect Kha'Zix's level 6 spike with ultimate stealth and increased kill threat.
Use your power spikes to force Kha'Zix onto the defensive and deny him safe farming or objective control.

Win conditions

Convert early vision and scuttle control into secure Dragon and Rift Herald takes to build team advantage.
