How to win the jungle race as Nunu & Willump against Sejuani · Matchup data reviewed on patch 26.15
Read from Nunu & Willump's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Sejuani.
| Stage | Read | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 Clear | Even Skirmish | Dead-even at the first buff: Consume chunks monsters, not champions — clear safe and protect objectives, while the Arctic Assault knock-up into a Permafrost stun chains you into her gank follow-up. Whoever arrives with more HP and cooldowns wins — track their clear and choose the moment, not the coin-flip. |
| Level 2 Skirmish | Even Skirmish | Neither side cleanly wins level 2 — the Arctic Assault knock-up into a Permafrost stun chains you into her gank follow-up, but the snowball is gank pressure, not duel pressure; keep avoiding the 1v1. Trade only from full health; the first mis-step decides this, not the kits. |
| Level 3 Route | Even Skirmish | Even at the opening scuttle: you still don't win duels — convert W ganks and smite fights instead, and as the first scuttle timer lands neither of you can force it. She can't duel without the stun chain — dodge the Q engage and trade freely, and contest the first scuttle only with the health lead. |
| Levels 4-5 Macro | Respect Sejuani — Path Opposite | Do not trade windows with Sejuani here: she uses 4-5 to set up Permafrost ganks with a laner, since her own damage is not the threat. Path opposite, keep your entrances warded, and answer the map, not the champion. |
| Level 6 Breakpoint | Respect Sejuani's R | Glacial Prison turns any pick into a team kill, which is the whole problem: a cross-map Glacial Prison stun starts a fight you cannot refuse. The projectile is dodgeable — strafe the cast and her engage evaporates, and spend Absolute Zero to equalize rather than to open. |
| First Item Spike | Liandry's Spike | Completing Liandry's Torment puts a max-health burn on every Consume (Q), Biggest Snowball Ever! (W) and Snowball Barrage (E) hit, so camps and waves melt and brawlers who try to out-sustain you lose a chunk of health every trade. Sejuani's first item is a durability spike — she does not start killing you, she starts being impossible to remove. |
| 2+ Items Scaling | Respect Sejuani Late — End Early | The full-build comparison goes to Sejuani: she is unkillable frontline with a cross-map stun that starts every fight. Play for picks and objectives, and end before the fight has to be fair. |
Start your clear at the Red or Blue Buff camp utilizing your Consume true damage to maximize early clear speed without needing a heavy leash. Sejuani clears steadily with Winter's Wrath and Fury of the North keeps her health high, so she paths without recalling.
