Bro. This is a sick tank build. For anybody but rammus. He's my main as well and well your item build is seriously lacking armor. And there's no thornmail! What the **** dude. Thornmail is an absolute must.I go ninja tabbi, thornmail, randian's, sunfire, frozen heart, then warmog. And lvl ball curl fastest with taunt second. This gives you about 87% redused physical and the resist from ball curl is enough to guard against mages for the most part. Try this out some time. I don't wanna be mean or nothing. I will try your build and if it works better than mine I will epic appoligise. But I'm not a fan. I just went 11/4/8 with my build. So anyone who wants to try it should.


I sorta disagree, thornmail should never be a core build. A lot of champions, ranged or not do have magic abilities, they may not be AP carries but the thornmail doesn't do anything to counter them. I take thornmail when I face heavy AD teams which is not very often. As for the rest of your build, I like it but I don't find warmogs necessary. Yes the health won't kill you but Rammus isn't a tank like mundo, he can't just stack HP and be called a tank. The health regen is a big plus in warmogs but my build has about 90 health regen without it, so yes you can take warmogs, but definitely not in a core build. You said ball curl will defend against mages when in reality it really won't, ball curl doesn't run none stop and it has a fairly large cool down, yes 150 MR is amazing but when that 6 seconds is up and your surrounded by mages, good luck. In my opinion you should reconsider your core build. In my opinion a good armor/mr balance is exactly what any tank needs.

Awesome build/guide mate :). I just tried it out and i got 4/5/10 in a 3v3 normal. Good balance between m-resist and armor. Mostly guides Rammus just build armor and fails big against AP's. +1 for this build.

note: get abit more into this build (what item to first buy when building Omen etc etc.) i went HoG for sure ;) +5 gold

I have been calling Rammus a rollie-pollie before I even discovered mobafire existed and to be honest I didn't even know your build was there :P If you really
want me to change it i will though.

Well, it's a good build, so making it more detailed might give it really good ratings, dunno if you care about ratings, but a lot of people do. :)

Nice build - I'd also recommend Thornmail, since it makes Rammus able to **** up AD carries like Ashe, Caitlyn etc.

Not as a core build item, just against some quite AD heavy teams.


Thanks, I seriously need to rewrite this guide and make it a lot more detailed. I will most likely add thornmail into "Other Viable Items"
