it depends on the runes. most flat vs scaling balance out pretty late, so it's better to get the flat for a lot of things.

iirc flat armor yellows are the thing
flat cdr blues the thing
etc

i don't think scaling quints are considered good though.

mana regen reaches the flats really early though, so mana regen/lvls are almost unanimously agreed to be better than flat mana regen.

Nah, she'll never reach level 6. Same reason Kassadin isn't broken in Draft Racing.

Also Mogwai said every single thing I was gonna say about Janna
Blitz grab + Ignite + Q + Explode = 3/4 Teemo's health.
:x Hitting level 6 would make it REALLY broken.

But I guess "good" is more accurate...

I like MRes per lvl on junglers since your first few levels you don't need MRes anyway.
u can just get attack speed blues if youre jungling for a safer jungle

cause junglers are so early game dependent, the better you make your early game, the better your late game will be.

SO my last game pissed the hell out me

Went 20/8/7 Udyr

My partner ashe went 5/10/26 (I kept ksing by accident but she didnt mind as long as they died)

Shaco was 2/16/2 ( He assisted team by telling them where i jungled and i died 5 times by that)
Had a lablanc who went ad....
Urgot rage quit


we lost.... Literally me and ashe doing the whole 5v2 while the other 3 sucked and Shaco kept telling me go ttank and dont jungle thats why he started helping the other team

My Udyr build is usually
wiggles lantern > ninja or merc boots > trinity force > madreds > then either armor like sunfire cape +banshee > replace the wiggles for bloodthirster

With Udyr you want to prioritize Magic Resist over Armor. Udyr has natrual dodge (which is like armor in a sense). Wriggles already gives you a good chunk of armor too (so does ninja tabi if you buy those). The champ doesn't get much MR at all, especially if you don't have Mr/lv blues (runes). I almost always get a Negatron early when I play udyr, and almost never upgrade it. Having that +48 MR helps a ton. Then later when all is going well you can upgrade to FoN (better option) or Banshees, sometimes QSS if they have malz, morde, or ww who ults you a lot.

you are lucky u can even win games with annie

i have to play janna to win any

and even then it will usually end up 4v5

because someone like jazriel decides to press the frontiers of human stupidity and rage at someone for dying or making a dumb mistake. the offended summoner will of course rage and leave, and the jazriel-esque individual will then type in all chat "report the leaver" until 20 minutes arrives

So, quick question on Rammus.
What's the optimum set up for a jungling Rammus?

I keep seeing Cloth Armor and health drink, but whenever I try it, I feel like I'm not netting gold fast enough to keep up with the other team. I've tried starting out with Health Pendant, and after a single run through the jungle, I'm able to snag a Phil. Stone, and that certainly helps out with the gold issue, but I feel like it also might be holding me back by preventing me from buying other items that might be more useful to me early to mid game.

Right now, I'm having a ton of trouble with armor + health, so what I'm doing in jungles is shooting for the Phil. + HoG set up, then quickly getting my boots, and then either Sunfire or Banshee's based on the make up of the other team champions. After both of those, I typically start working on Warmogs, and then finishing off with Reverie and Randuin in any order.

I'm pretty sure there's something I'm simply overlooking or forgetting about. Any tips?

Cloth and pots is safer while health pendant rushes into P stone right off the bat. If you get a REALLY good leash for Blue, pendant is nice. But if you just get a caster AA or some weak leash, I'd probably stick with cloth. Have Poppy or someone gay come leash it and beat it to a pulp with another teammate.

I see.

What about my skill level ups?

I typically go W > Q > W, then E (R when available) until E hits level 5 before jumping back to focusing on my W. Is that the optimum approach for jungle Rammus? Or is that also based on the other team's make up?

As for my item build, is that typically solid?

Oh, and starting off with Cloth Armor; Would that flow well into Tabi, since it's built off of Cloth Armor?
I mean, if necessary, I can always sell it mid-game for treads, but that leads back into my "getting gold too slow" problem.

This is annoying to think about, lol.
