Not a bad guide, and I'll have to try out the jungling later, but I do want to point out something in your item list. You list Thornmail as being pretty low priority, but the 30% damage return is based on raw damage, not damage after reduction. So, if someone like Tryndamere hits you for 1k raw damage and you have 50% damage reduction from armor, you take 500, but deal 30% of the full 1000 (so, 300 damage) back to him. |

With a lot of armor items and DBC, you'll have a huge amount of damage reduction. Combine that with taunt to make an enemy champion attack you, and you can shred just about any AD/attack speed focused champion easily. I've seen a Tryndamere go from full health to nearly dead just from thornmail and defensive ball curl (and my piddly auto-attack) in the span of one taunt. Hmmm,thats actually a great point,normally you can destroy squishy ADs with just the normal build,but with Thornmail,you can probably destroy Crit-based Champions like Tryndamere and Critplank.Thanks for the advice!

It's not just crit-based champions though, it's any champion that has a strong auto-attack. Thornmail reflects raw damage, not damage after armor, so you being a tank and having high damage reduction doesn't hurt how much damage it reflects. In fact, it's even better for Rammus, since you can force them to attack you instead of a teammate. Of course, it's nowhere near as effective against an AP-heavy team, but against a team that stacks a lot of AD, you can easily do a ton of damage with it. |

I know its not just crit-based,Im just saying it'd really effective vs people who crit alot as opposed to say a Tanky AD like Olaf or Renekton,Regardless thank you. Rate my guide if ya liked it :)

I remember reading this guide some time ago, wanting to sign-up just to upvote it. Great, helped me a lot when my team made me go solo top. 
If you're interested in my Sejuani Guide, tap here
It's about getting her to deal damage in teamfights, while tanking a bit of punishment. There is a part for every game mode, so feel free to observe, rate and comment! (signature made by Iordania)
