Jungle Plan
Prioritize efficient clears and reach level 6 quickly to leverage your (R) for objective fights and skirmishes.
Contest Scuttle Crab only when your lanes have priority and can support you against Nunu's (W) gank angles.
Use your mobility to cross-map and counter-gank Nunu's early pressure, especially when he commits to ganks or objective starts.
Danger windows
Respect Nunu's early (W) snowball ganks from fog; avoid overextending without vision.
Be cautious during isolated river fights where Nunu can use (R) to zone and burst you.
Avoid low-health clears and forced Smite fights early, as Nunu's sustain and objective control can punish you.
Early game
Start with a full clear toward a safe reset unless a lane offers reliable setup for early ganks.
Avoid fighting for first Scuttle Crab unless nearby lanes have priority to support a counter-gank.
Track Nunu's early ganks and pathing to anticipate his river moves and avoid being caught out in isolated fights.
Power spikes

Level 6 (R) allows you to force objective fights and pick offs; track its availability to engage decisively.
Nunu's first dragon or Herald start with (Q) plus Smite is a strong spike; contest these objectives aggressively with your team vision and presence.
Win conditions
