Something I picked up while watching a Pants are Dragon video though I've added some of my own why and what to do instead to the thought process.

As a jungler if you successfully gank a lane (get a kill or push the enemy laner out of lane) and your laner is low you will want to help them clear any enemy minions that are present so that your laner can go back to the Fountain to recharge and buy. This also has the effect of speeding (typically called shoving) your minions into the enemy turret to be killed forcing the enemy laner to miss getting the gold and XP from those minions and...

Step 1: You paid attention to their team comp in champion select or during the load screen, right? If not you Fd up. Because if they have anyone with a hook you probably have a better than 50% chance of getting invaded. Hooks are practically a guaranteed Flash during level one invades, though a Blitzcrank Rocket Grab is the most deadly as that damn thing can pull things through walls.

Step 2: Buy your starting items and quickly get your behind out to your jungle entrances. You can right click on potions and buy them up to the maximum amount super quickly if you are... Read More

So I think I found a build on Aatrox that I like. If you think you are going to be team fighting early then get Guinsoo's Rageblade after your jungle item + Enchantment: Devourer.

Death’s Dance makes Dark Flight and the bonus damage from Blood Price heal you so you can pretty much leave [[Blood... Read More

Will be interesting to see how the fraction of warding... Read More

I've been having some fun with Fiddlesticks in pre-season. I like him when my team needs some AP and we have at least a couple of bruiser or tank types in different positions. Braum support and Illaoi top? Hmm, Fiddlesticks seems like he could provide some needed CC and AP.

Between the fear from Terrify, a slow from Red Buff, a silence from Reap, and the damage from Bountiful Harvest, your early ganks are potent, especially if your laner has some CC of their own or brings a solid helping of damage.... Read More
