Is AP Nunu better than Tank Nunu?
In our Season 3 damage simulator AP Nunu does 900 combo-plus-autos damage at level 18 against 1900 HP / 75 armour / 50 MR, which is +216% versus Tank Nunu, with 5,619 effective HP (-53%). That is a damage comparison, not a verdict: Anywhere the channel gets interrupted, which is anywhere with a stun. A cancelled Absolute Zero is three seconds of standing still for nothing.
When should I play AP Nunu?
In choke points and around objectives, where a channel started from fog cannot be walked out of. Blood Boil still hard-buffs your carry regardless of build. Ice Blast slows hard enough to hold a target inside a full Absolute Zero channel, and at that point the ultimate is the single largest number in the game mode.
