well, don't get me wrong, I usually regrowth -> PhiloHog on Irelia too, but it's not because of terrible farm, but rather because I farm so well that I can get them both earlier than 8 minutes and then farm up until 20 minutes and then go ****ing crazy on the opposing team. Her kit just makes last hitting so easy.

That's about the same time I normally get them. Okay when I say terrible farm I mean sometimes I may only get 2 or 3 creeps on occasion but with any other champ I have no problem getting 5-6 per wave and harassing. I'm too scared to harass with Irelia. R>W>Q>E? Am I doin it right?

E>Q, but other than that, sure. Assuming you can whack them with your active W a few times, Irelia can put out Annie-level damage at level 6. I think too many people are content to just sit around farming with Irelia when she can seriously just jump on people with W -> Q -> E -> smack em around 1-2 times and then W -> Q -> E -> RRRRRRR + Ignite and kill people.

Hey I am really struggling with jungle Udyr. How exactly do you team fight with him? I would just melt hard. No matter what I would do I would just get wrecked. =(

Do I go in first or last? How do you sustain like a boss? What items do you build? I am just so sad =(

Jungle Udyr btw.

1 sunfire and banshee on a normal basis

Always start with stun!

Yeah, they redid the art b/c everyone said it looked ********.

They did something similar with Lux and her old color scheme.

ESPY mad b/c she isn't a pony.

oh snap, were you the mundo I was laning against in the in-house? if so, honestly, not really. Mundo's numbers are just so sad nowadays and he can't really keep up with your run-of-the-mill top laner anymore because they all hit harder and sustain better, which is sooo, soooo, sooooo, sooooo, soooo sad and stupid.

Lmao, yeah that was me. There were a handful of really fun plays at top :)

I felt like I was doing well overall, but the absolute lack of jungle presence from our jungle karth really hurt considering how much time you spent pushed all the way up to my tower.

Oh well. I absolutely love playing mundo. Ill work on it some more. I was kinda surprised at how tanky you were at level one with just a regrowth though.

Jungle Karth never has presence... especially against a counterjungling Lee Sin and a CV, haha.

yea, I run x/21/x with extremely tanky pages in top lane, so I end up a lot tankier than most nabs who grab pointless Quints/Seals/Glyphs like Mana Regen/CDR/HP, etc.

OMG Wit's End is such a good item. Why didn't I start using it sooner...

On another note: are their any drawbacks to building Wit's End? I've been building it on my Udyr and my Warwick for the attack speed and MR it gives.

If you are building Crit Chance then obviously Wit's End isn't the most optimal choice. It's really good on bruiser type champs cause it keeps you alive and does pretty good damage.

It's good on champs that have on-hit sustain and are tanky or scale with attack speed (Udyr Pheonix Stance, WW gets more healing). If you do crits you want damage moreso than attack speed (though you want a good mix of both).

It doesn't scale with your abilities or other attributes beyond attack speed. For Melee characters its a great choice because it's good damage and survivability rolled into one package. But for your standard carry going IE, Phantom Dancer, Bloodthirster and the like it's going to be less than ideal. A character like Ashe survives on good positioning and support from her team, and likes AD and crit chance to scale into the late game.
If you're AD carry is Kogmaw or Teemo (though let's be honest... Teemo is basically a bruiser) it's going to be good though because their typical builds abuse on hit effects that scale off of attack speed.

Your first sentence caught me off guard. I am assuming you were basically answering my question of the draw backs as a whole and not directing it at my Warwick or Udyr, right? Everything else you say I also agree with!

Thanks you two =D
