Nid heal better than Blood Boil? Are you serious? Nunu is still one of the best late game supports, his laning phase isn't as good with BB nerfs but he can protect a carry very well and makes their damage obscene.

Early on a kill lane presents problems, but once you get some HP Nunu can buy time for the carry to wail down with her superior dps.
