Nunu needs a remake. The nerfs to nunu's E hurt him a lot and he is no longer the best early game ganker. There is really no reason to pick him anymore over the new champions and junglers. Let's compare nunu to gankplank, they can both jungle and lane:

Self heal: Nunu has a heal that needs minions and heals pretty much for the same amount as gangplank's heal but gp's heal doesn't need a minion and removes all forms of cc, even suppression.

Steroid: Nunu's W gives attack speed and movement speed to ONE person but gp's steroid doesn't need a target and buffs your whole team's movement speed, attack speed, and damage.

Nuke: Both also have a nuke but needless to say i'm sure all of us rather get hit by nunu's ice blast than gang's parrrley.

Giant aoe ult: Gangplank's ult is global and cannot be interrupted. Eventhough nunu's ult deal way more damage, in level 30 or ranked games, you're going to need some sort of divine intervention or else you'll be lucky to pull it off once in a game.

Also, nunu's passive is garbage compared to gp's.

Nunu also suffers from a confused personality, as in, he is more effective in jungle but jungling with him hinders your build as he is essentially an ap champ.

I know there are a lot of champs that outclass each other in different situations BUT nunu and gangplank have pretty much the exact same kit and yet gangplank is infinitely better than nunu in every aspect. So, why would anybody pick nunu? What role does he fill?
