Hi there, my name's Crystalfortress, and this is my guide to tanky AP Nunu & Willump for use in the top lane, as well as my first guide on MOBAfire! To tell you a bit about myself, I am an avid League of Legends player playing on the North American Servers and living in California. I am currently ranked in Silver V, however, I think (and hope) that you will find that my ranking doesn't reflect my ability to write guides. Please make sure to read the whole guide before you vote, and no matter whether you give me a positive or negative vote, make sure to give feedback in the comments section (I will try to keep an eye on it). In addition, I haven't had the ability to play this build much lately (haven't played top in a while), and thusly don't have much know-how to put into the Matchups section. If you can, be sure to include a comment about your experience with the build, including which champion you were against and how you fared, as well as any tips, tricks or strategies you would suggest. Now then, let's get down to business (to defeat the Huns?).

PROS Potentially game-changing ult STRONG AP scaling on Ice Blast & Absolute Zero Great utility from Blood Boil & CC from Ice Blast & Absolute Zero Solid sustain through his Consume & Visionary

CONS Absolute Zero channel can be stopped by some cc Only one non-ult damage ability ( Ice Blast) If you don't know how to use Visionary, can be mana hungry Not as tanky as some other top laners

---

---

I go six in offense because I already have 21 points in defence, and I feel that I prefer these to the advantages you get from going deeper into the utility tree. The cooldown reduction from Sorcery is nice early game, I like Butcher for last hitting, and Expose Weakness is amazing with your ult in Teamfights.

---

---

I like to go twenty-one points in defense because, while we certainly build a good amount of ability power in this build, your main job is still a tank. The defensive tree provides you with the ability to take more damage and the ability to ignore more cc so you can get into the middle of teamfights and ult more easily.

---

---

I only like to put the three points into Meditation because I'm a mana hungry newbie. If you are skilled enough with Visionary that you dont need it, you can put these points in either of the two other trees or into Fleet of Foot .

---

---

---

I use Greater Quintessence of Movement Speed in all of my builds, because more speed is always nice. Good for chasing enemies, running away, and avoiding skillshots.

---

I use Greater Seal of Armor to help out with defending against physical damage. I prefer flat armor over scaling because I prefer to have extra defenses earlier rather than later.

---

I use Greater Glyph of Magic Resist to help out with defending against magic damage. Flat magic resist allows you to mitigate more magic damage early.

---

I use greater mark of hybrid penetration on all of my AP characters because I find that the drawback of losing about two (i believe?) magic penetration is worth it for the massive amount of armor penetration you get, since most of your early game damage comes from your auto attacks. I also take one Greater Mark of Magic Penetration just simply because it is my preferred balance of magic penetration and armor penetration, sacrificing only a little bit of magic penetration for a lot of armor penetration. The balance of magic and armor penetration could be adjusted to your preference.

---

---

---

One could also definitely use Greater Quintessence of Ability Power. This would provide you with more offensive power with your abilities, but less movement speed. A perfectly fine alternative.

---

If you prefer, you could take Greater Seal of Scaling Armor rather than the Greater Seal of Armor that I use. It would make sense if you were against a magic damage top laner, but even then I prefer the ones I use because a lot of their damage early game will still probably come from auto attacks, and flat armor will help you mitigate more damage from minion aggro. Definitely a fine replacement though.

---

I use Flash 95 percent of the time on most champions I play. The ability to jump over walls, and reposition more aggressively or escape possible death is amazing. Also, Flashing then using Absolute Zero will surprise the enemy team in team fights, and allow you to potentially hit all 5 enemies. There is no better alternative on Nunu & Willump.

I like Teleport on nunu because you can use it to show up out of the blue in other lanes during the laning phase and gives you the option to split push later in the game. This one is not as mandatory as Flash, and can be replaced by others (listed below)

---

Ignite could be used against regeneration-heavy or lifesteal-heavy top laners. I would use it against Dr. Mundo, Aatrox, and maybe an Olaf or a Nasus. However, I like to build a Morellonomicon anyways, so it becomes a bit redundant late game.

---

---

This is your passive. Pretty basic, it just gives you a mana-free spell every five attacks. I use it to get free harass using Ice Blast every five attacks or free health sustain using Consume every five attacks. However, don't get so caught up autoattacking minions that you push your lane when you shouldn't.

---

---

This ability is really more handy for jungle Nunu & Willump, however, it does provide you with really good health sustain in lane. While it is preferable to use it with stacks of Visionary, 60 mana isn't very much, so make sure to use it whenever it's needed (especially if it's an emergency).

This ability isn't really that handy for top lane Nunu & Willump. While a temporary speed boost is awesome for escaping bad situations or running into the middle of a team fight when Flash is down, it doesn't provide you with anything handy in lane, nor does it provide you with that much more damage. Make sure to use this on your ADC in team fights and late game skirmishes.

Your awesome, %100 AP scaling, slowing, targeted nuke. Can chunk down enemies very low, especially with some AP and cooldown reduction. However, at level 5 it costs a whopping 115 mana, so always try to use it with stacks of Visionary, but dont worry too much about it late game since we build plenty of mana.

---

---

The ability that gives Nunu & Willump so much potential in teamfights. Proper use of this ability is difficult, requiring proper positioning and timing. Always try to use it after the enemy has used any abilities that might be able to interrupt it. However, another good idea to prevent its channel from failing is to get your team to bait the enemy team near a bush and then use it from the bush. They will suffer all of the damage, but won't be able to target you with targeted abilities, and may not even realize where you are. Also works really well with Flash to position right in the middle of the enemy team.

The Doran's Shield start is quite good against most top laners these days. Provides great health sustain, the block passive is great, since most of today's popular top laners are autoattack based, and the health provides help with trades and all-ins early game. The health potion is just a bonus.

The Doran's Ring start is really good if you don't fear the enemy top laner's early game. The ability power and mana sustain from the mana regeneration and passive allow you to harass better using your Ice Blasts. The Health is always great for all-ins, trades and surviving ganks. Two potions provide good health sustain.

I rarely use Crystalline Flask, because I find that Nunu & Willump has already got enough sustain from both his Consume and his Visionary, but this start could be put to good use against top laners that have A LOT of harass, like a Heimerdinger, Kayle or Kennen. You just don't see them much these days, though.

---

Boots are a good item to get early in most matchups, due to the boost in speed allowing easier escapes, chasing, and outplay potential. Highly suggested first back buy against skillshot reliant champions, but also good in almost all situations.

catalyst the protector catalyst the protector provides you with really nice stats early game, and is helpful for building into an early Rod of Ages. The health is nice for trades and all-ins early game, the mana is nice for helping you harass more with Ice Blast and the passive regeneration on level up provides you with a lot of sustain throughout the early game.

Blasting Wand is a pretty simple early game item. AP is your main offensive stat, increasing the power of Ice Blast and Absolute Zero. Buying one early provides you a lot more damage with Ice Blast harass and more all-in damage with Absolute Zero. Also is the second ingredient in an early Rod of Ages.

Spectre's Cowl is a good early item against magic damage top laners. It provides you with some magic resist to help you mitigate some of the magic damage and health to help with early game trades and all-ins. The passive is also really good against harassment, giving you some extra regeneration every time you get hit by an enemy champion. It's also one of the ingredients of a Banshee's Veil.

Glacial Shroud is a good early game item against physical damage top laners. It gives you armor to help stop some of the physical damage that they will be hitting you with, some mana to help your Ice Blast harass, and some cooldown reduction to allow you to throw out more Ice Blasts and Blood Boils. Also helps build into an early Frozen Heart.

Warden's Mail is a good early game pick up against enemy top laners that deal a lot of physical damage, especially if it's mostly through auto attacks. The armor stops some of the damage, and the passive slows their attack speed, causing them to do less damage. It's also the second ingredient in an early Frozen Heart.

---

I like Rod of Ages on Nunu & Willump because it provides you with so many excellent stats late game. Health is always nice for more tankiness, mana is good to allow you to harass with Ice Blast before fights, and ability power is handy to increase the power of your Ice Blasts and, most importantly, your Absolute Zero.

I use Sorcerer's Shoes because you deal a LOT of magic damage later in the game, including the extremely high base damage from Absolute Zero. These shoes allow that damage to bypass more of the enemy team's magic resistance. There is an alternative choice in Mercury's Treads that I will explain further in the ALTERNATIVE ITEMS section.

Frozen Heart provides us with a lot of stats that we love, and nothing that we don't. 95 Armor is huge for a single item, 400 mana helps a lot for late game harassment with Ice Blast, cooldown reduction helps keep the Blood Boils and Ice Blasts coming, and the passive is great against enemy ADCs. I suggest rushing this item after Rod of Ages against any physical damage top laners (most of them these days).

This item provides us with great base stats and an awesome passive. Health and Magic Resist are just good stats for tanks, helping you mitigate a a lot of magic damage, as well as a lot of damage in general. The spell shield passive is huge for Nunu & Willump, potentially allowing you to block a spell that would have ended the channel on your Absolute Zero. The other passive is just nice for sustain against harrassment. Get this before Frozen heart against magic damage top laners.

I like this item for multiple reasons. First of all, Ability Power is your main offensive statistic, so it's good for obvious reasons. In addition, the passive is really handy against most popular top laners these days, as they usually survive in fights through regeneration or life steal, but this passive reduces those. The main reason, though, is the mana regeneration and cooldown reduction, which allow you to spam your Blood Boils and Ice Blasts more easily. This is the main replacable core build item.

I use this item in most situations because it provides you a lot more offensive power. I usually buy it last or second to last because that is when the enemies are starting to get large amounts of magic resist. Allows your magic damage to cut through more magic resist. Especially good with the ult because it has an insane base damage, but is countered mainly through use of magic resist.

I would consider getting spirit visage instead of Morellonomicon if their team has no regeneration or lifesteal-based champions. This item provides you with less cooldown reduction, but still a good amount, good tank stats in health, health regeneration, and magic resist, and a passive that increases the strength of your Consume. Could also be used instead of Banshee's Veil if the enemy team has no channel-breaking crowd control. A solid item on Nunu & Willump.

I would consider using Liandry's Torment as a replacement for void staff, but only if the enemy team has built little to no magic resist. It provides a similar amount of ability power, some health, 15 magic penetration, and a passive that more than makes up for slight decrease in ability power (especially considering that all of Nunu & Willumps offensive spells slow).

I would consider getting abyssal scepter instead of banshee's veil in the rare case that the enemy team ends up with no cc that can stop your ult (very rare). This provides a lot more offensive power, but in my experience, I've always ended up missing the stats that the Banshee's Veil provides. You could also use the Spirit Visage in a situation like this.

Locket of the Iron Solari is another potential replacement for Morellonomicon. Use this if the enemy team has no regeneration or lifesteal-based champions AND, most importantly, your other teammates have not and do not plan on building one. Very situational, but another good option.

I use Mercury's Treads instead of Sorcerer's Shoes when the enemy team either has lots of AP champions, lots of CC, or one of their AP champions is getting fed. A fine replacement for Sorcerer's Shoes

Nunu has a medium strength early game, focusing mostly on farming, but also on harassing the enemy laner through use of Ice Blast, and sustaining through use of Consume and Visionary. If you are against a weak laner, you have pretty good kill potential at level 6, when you get Absolute Zero and could try to all-in against them. Other than that, just farm and annoy the heck out of them.

---

---

By the time the middle game comes around, Nunu & Willump should probably have a few of the core early items, if not a finished item, and hopefully may have a kill or two with the help of the jungler. This is the time when you can start to take your lanes turrets, especially with the help of your jungler ( Blood Boil makes taking turrets a lot easier). If you have the chance, you can roam down to mid, or pull a Teleport gank off on bottom lane. If Absolute Zero is up, it's very likely that you may get the kills. After you have ganked, you and the members of that lane can get a lot of damage on the turret, especially if you Blood Boil yourself and the carry. You are also very good at helping control and/or steal the dragon due to the potential of Consume. Make sure to use this to your advantage.

---

---

By this time, you've finished most of your core items, the outter turrets of both teams are probably gone, and teamfights are the main attraction. This is the time when Nunu & Willump really shines. Whenever a fight breaks out, use Absolute Zero as suggested in the ABILITIES and TIPS & TRICKS sections. After that, if you pulled it off properly, its just clean-up. Be sure to Blood Boil your ADC before any fights, and if their tank survived the fight and is wailing on your carries, slow him with Ice Blast and help your carries survive. You can also help chase down any runners by using your Ice Blast on them and Blood Boiling an ally. During Baron fights, try to secure the baron with Consume if you can, and also remember that ulting the enemy team right after baron is likely to just kill ALL of them due to the Baron's magic resist reducing debuff.

Keep in mind, it's been a while since I've played top, so this advice is based more upon how I expect the matchup would go than personal experience for the most part. This section will also be updated more as more people comment with their experience with the build. Also, this section is still under construction, and so does not have all of the common top lane champions. In addition, I will probably not cover all of the possible top lane champions, but only the most common ones, but if you have a champion you want covered, you can include it in the comments section.

4/5 Aatrox Aatrox can be a difficult lane for Nunu & Willump. He is extremely strong in all-ins and his sustain through his lifesteal allows him to pretty basically cancel out your Ice Blast harass. His knock-up can cancel your ult, and his passive is just plain annoying. Morellonomicon should not be replaced if you are playing against him.

5/5 Cho'gath UUUUGGGGHHH!!! Never lane against a Cho'Gath if you don't have to. His passive gives him great sustain, his ult makes him insanely tanky, he will push the wave, and, most importantly, he has two abilities that will cancel your ult!!! Play passively early game and be extremely careful with when and where you ult late game, or Cho'Gath will just stop it.

3/5 Darius Darius is medium difficulty. He has fairly strong harass, and really strong all-ins. Make sure not to stick around in lane with low health, or he'll just Noxian Guillotine you. Also, his Apprehend can cancel your ult, so watch out for that.

2/5 Dr. Mundo Dr. Mundo is fairly easy to lane against. Early game, you can really set him back with some good Ice Blast harass, since he won't have built a lot of tanky stats yet. Be sure to avoid his Infected Bonesaws, as they do a surprising amount of damage. In late game team fights, be sure to help peel for your carries, because "Mundo goes where he wants", and that usually means straight for the carries. He has nothing to interrupt your ult, so that's nice. Don't replace the Morellonomicon, unless you picked up Ignite.

3/5 Gangplank Gangplanks usually have a fairly passive laning phase, trying to get lots of extra gold by farming with their Parrrley. Just do the regular farming and harassing, being sure to warn your team when he gets level 6. Late game, his Parrrleys will do a lot of damage, so try to stay out of his range before a fight. Also, keep in mind that he will probably Remove Scurvy any slows that you throw on him during a chase or escape, so take that into account.

4/5 Garen Garen has the potential to really mess you up in lane. He can do a surprising amount of damage with his Judgment, his Courage will decrease the length of your slows, and his Decisive Strike can cleanse them. Decisive Strike's silence can also end your ult, so watch out. Also, don't stick around in lane with low health, or he'll just Demacian Justice you and you'll die :(.

3/5 Jarvan IV Jarvan IV is pretty weak in the early game. You can easily harass him while he has to farm in close range, but only all-in on him if he has low health, because he's pretty good in all-ins. Also, remember that his Demacian Standard + Dragon Strike combo can knock you up, ending the channel on your ult. Try not the get caught in his Cataclysm, because you have no escapes other than Flash.

3/5 Jax Jax is medium difficulty. He has no long range abilities, making him really easy to harass with Ice Blast. He does, however, have incredible power in all-ins, so try to avoid them, unless you have a major advantage. Definitely try to deny him farm and kills, because he can snowball really hard. Also, his Counter Strike can stun you, stopping the channel on Absolute Zero. However, he has to get into close range to do it, and unless his Leap Strike is up, the slow should keep him away.

2/5 Jayce Jayce is a one-trick pony. His only real strength is his poke with Acceleration Gate + Shock Blast, which is definitely strong, but you have the tools to fight it. Just always make sure to avoid them if you can (the move speed from Blood Boil helps), and if you do take one, make sure to heal up the damage using Consume. The only other thing that you have to watch out for is that he can interrupt your ult with his Thundering Blow, however, that requires him to be in close range, and he's pretty squishy. if he does interrupt it, he will take the full brunt of Absolute Zero, and then you can finish him off with Ice Blasts and auto attacks.

3/5 Lee Sin Lee Sin has a really strong early game. He can harass really well, his mobility is insane, and his Safeguard really helps him stop a lot of your harass. Once the mid-late game comes around though, you'll be a lot more helpful to your team then he will be. Keep in mind that his Dragon's Rage can stop the channel on your ult, but luckily it has a long cooldown, so should be pretty easy to keep track of. Late game, try to block the Resonating Strikes for your carries so that he can't engage on them, because if he does, he can very easily kick them back into his team. If he kicks you back into his team, then, hey, free engage!!!

2/5 Nasus Nasus is pretty scary for most top laners, his Siphoning Strike being the main cause of this. He can get really strong if you allow him to farm a lot, with technically infinite damage potential on Siphoning Strike. Luckily, his main weakness is early game harass, and Nunu & Willump definitely has a pretty good amount of that. Ice Blast him every time he tries to get some farm, all-in him if he sticks around on low health (be aware of the health boost from Fury of the Sands though, don't let him bait you), and ask if you can get ganks from your jungler. Try not to push the wave too hard though, because Nasus is pretty good at farming under turret, and you are likely to get ganked. Or just buy some extra wards and push him back so that he can't farm as well. He has nothing to stop you channeling, but still try to avoid mid-late game fights unless you've harassed him down a lot.

3/5 Olaf Olaf is not super common in the top lane these days, but if he does show up, he can be a pretty even match-up for you. Early game, try to harass him a lot, because his only way to respond is either using Undertow, which you should either avoid, or Consume through, or going in for a trade. If he goes in for a trade, let him hit you, then Blood Boil yourself, Ice Blast him, and run away. He'll almost certainly take a lot more damage then you, taking into account minion aggro. He has nothing to stop you ult from channeling, and late game you have a lot more teamfight power. But, here's the clincher ... you just can't keep him away from your carries. When he pops his ult he becomes an invincible man of the north, unaffected by your puny "crowd control". Blood boil whichever carry he's going for, and see if you can't distract him long enough for your carries to get out.

4/5 Renekton Renekton has an incredibly strong early game. He can do huge damage to you with his trades and harass, can sustain through it pretty easily due to Cull the Meek, he has great power in early all-ins because of Dominus, and he can push really hard. Try to Consume through as much of the early game damage as you can, and just keep in mind that you are much better late game. Also always keep in mind that his Ruthless Predator can stop the channel on your ult. Late game, you are much more of an asset to your team than he is, so long as you can make it out of the early game.

4/5 Riven Riven is a though match-up for you. She has a pretty aggressive early game, punishing you if you overstep the boundaries. She has pretty insane damage, mobility, as well as really good crowd control early game, meaning that she can dash in, mess you up, and get back out before you can even say "Swallow you whole!". Just try to Consume through the damage as much as you can, and wait until late game. Also, she has two abilities that can end your channel (the third jump in Broken Wings and Ki Burst), so watch for her when you try to ult. Luckily, both of them are pretty close range, so she would definitely have to take a lot of damage if she wants to end your channel. Late game, be sure to peel her away from your carries, or she will mess them up pretty bad.

3/5 Rumble Hey, another AP top laner!!! Not super common these days, but still shows up from time to time. His early game is pretty similar to yours, mostly just farming and occasionally harassing with Electro-Harpoon or Flamespitter. Just do your thing, avoid as much harass as you can, and Consume what you don't. He's also pretty similar in that late game his ult can be a deciding factor in team fights. He himself has nothing to stop yours, but always watch out for the line of fire bombs he drops down. Try not to ult until he has used his, otherwise he might ult on you when you're channeling, doing huge damage to you as you just have to stand there. Keep him away from your carries, also, or he'll barbecue them with Flamespitter.

2/5 Ryze Ryze is a top lane champion that has been gaining popularity of late. He has a medium-strength early game, usually not harassing very much due to large mana costs and short ranges, but has pretty good burst damage potential from the beginning. Try to harass him if you can early game, Consume through his combos that he may lay down on you, and let him run out of mana. Late game, he doesn't usually end up nearly as tanky as you, and his short ranges make him fairly easy to keep away from your carries. He can't end your channel ( Rune Prison is a snare, not a stun), so don't worry too much about him late game, other than keeping him off your carries.

3/5 Shyvana Shyvana is a pretty even matchup for you. Early game, you can easily harass her, because she has no long range abilities (other than the pretty weak, long cooldown Flame Breath), and she has no crowd control to keep you in range if she tries to all-in you. Try to set her back as far as possible in the early game, because in the mid-late game, she can be pretty scary. Her dueling potential becomes pretty crazy, and her Burnout makes it hard to keep her off your carries. Also, the displacement from Dragon's Descent can end your channel, so watch out for that.

3/5 Trundle Trundle is another pretty even matchup for you. Very similar to Shyvana in that he is pretty easy to harass early game because he has no ranged abilities and his crowd control from Pillar of Iceis only if you stay inside of the zone. Late game, he can easily outduel you, especially if his ult is up. Also, if it's a good Trundle, then they may be able to use the displacement from Pillar of Ice to end your ult. Keep him away from your carries, and try to ult after he's used the pillar.

2/5 Tryndamere Tryndamerehas some glaring weaknesses that Nunu & Willump has the potential to take advantage of. First of all, he's got nothing to end the channel on Absolute Zero, which is pretty nice. Also, as a close range, auto-attack based champion with no long range abilities, he's pretty easy to harass, and he gets nowhere without farm. If he tries to go in on you in lane, slow him with Ice Blast, Blood Boil yourself, and run. He probably used his Spinning Slash to engage on you, and his Mocking Shout shouldn't keep you close if you used both Blood Boil and Ice Blast. Late game, be sure to peel for your carries, as he can easily kill bot the mid laner and the ADC very quickly if he gets in range.

4/5 Wukong Wukong is pretty tough to go against for a Nunu & Willump. You can harass him pretty easily early game, but he's hard to keep off of you if he decides to go for a trade. His damage starts to get pretty intense mid-late game, especially Cyclone. Cyclone also knocks you up, ending the channel on Absolute Zero. If he starts standing still, it's probably a Warrior Trickster, so don't waste your time with it. He can be pretty hard to keep off of your carries, because he's got a long-range engage, and your Ice Blast is targetted and he can go invisible with Warrior Trickster.

1/5 Yorick Yorick is another top lane champion who isn't very popular these days, but when he is played, he is hilariously easy for Nunu & Willump. The main cause for this is that you can Consume his summons from any of his abilities, giving you health and preventing him from harassing you at all. He has nothing to stop your ult late game, and isn't really all that much of a threat to your carries (although you should still peel for them). Consume makes this matchup easily one of the most one-sided matchups in the game for Nunu & Willump.

• The best use of Visionary is to build up five stacks by last hitting minions, then use the free spell cast to harass the enemy using Ice Blast. This will significantly cut down on the mana cost of your harass.
• Whenever you and an ally are attacking a tower or pushing a lane, be sure to cast Blood Boil on that ally. If there are multiple allies nearby, the ADC is always the best choice. Can also just be cast on yourself for the same purposes if you are alone.
• The self-heal provided by Consume can be put to good use in lane by eating minions. This will help you stay in lane much longer, missing out on less minions, and thusly less gold and experience.
• Consume is also very helpful for making sure that you last hit cannon minions. Nunu & Willump isn't always the easiest character to last hit with using his autoattacks, and this can make sure you don't miss out on the large gold income from cannon minions.
• Consume can also be used to steal the enemy jungler's camps, including their buffs! If you plan to use this tactic, it is highly suggested that you ward the area before the enemy jungler has arrived and to try to get in and out quick when you go for it, so the enemy jungler and the nearby laners can't collapse on you and kill you. Be warned: very risky.

---

• While Absolute Zero's best use is most certainly against large groups of enemies, it is perfectly fine to use it against the enemy laner early game if it will get you the kill.
• Before going into the game, try to think of all of the enemy abilities that could possibly end the channel on your Absolute Zero (this includes silences, displacement, stuns, suppression, knock-ups, or any ability that makes you move, including terrifies, and Ahri's charm), and try to keep track of whether they are off cooldown and in range before you start to cast.
• Moving or casting one of your other abilities will end the channel early. While it is most often advantageous to let the channel get as far as possible, this can be used to your advantage. If you are channeling and the enemy you are trying to hit is about to leave the range of the spell, you can move and it will cause the damage to activate at the current charge level (better some damage then none). Also, if an enemy is about to escape at extremely low health, your Ice Blast is on cooldown, and they are in the range of your Absolute Zero, you can start channeling and then immediately move to secure the kill.
• Channeling from the inside of a bush is very effective for helping the channel finish and making sure enemies stay in range. Enemies won't be able to hit you with targeted abilities, skillshots will be harder to hit, they cant autoattack you, and unless one of them comes into the brush and reveals you, they won't be able to see the range of the effect.
• Using flash in conjunction with Absolute Zero (a.k.a. flash-ulting)can be used to engage on enemies in teamfights. They will be surprised, and you will likely end up right in the middle of the enemy team, allowing your ult to hit the entire enemy team. Be warned: if your team doesn't follow you in and you aren't tanky enough to make it back out again, the enemy team will just collapse on you and burst you down.
• Using this ability while the enemy team is trying to baron can cause tremendous damage due to the magic resist reduction debuff that the baron confers. If the baron is also low, you may be able to steal it with Absolute Zero + Consume.
