Very well-made guide, my friend!

In my opinion, as an Ammumu main when off-roleing Jungle, Conqueror is by far the best rune, no matter what (viable) items you are opting for. Not only does it give sustain, the Precision tree allows for more risky/bursty teams in 2v2s

Let me know what you think.

is good

nike

why ingenious hunter on electrocute page? the only item that Amumu builds that benefits from it is hourglass. wouldn't ultimate hunter or treasure hunter be way better?

Amumu can also build Everfrost (If you haven't already checked that out, try it!) which gives him a ton of utility. Having Everfrost available more often feels really nice.
Both Ultimate and Treasure hunter subrunes work well, indeed. I really think this is a matter of preference. As you become more adept with Amumu, you should get a good idea of what subrune here works the best. I'll look into adding a little paragraph about these options in the guide!

nice hocam.

muito bom gg

I got hyper fed with amumu one time and I could 1v3 lvl 9

Hi, have you seen the item changes for the preseason? If so, how much will the Demonic Embrace, Abyssal Mask and Force of Nature changes affect Amumu?

(23) |

I've not tested anything so I can't say for sure. Based of my observations,
I don't have any comments on Demonic Embrace, it's probably worth waiting to see.
Abyssal Mask will really only be a buy into AP teams. I don't think the MR debuff is going to be strong, the number is not mentioned.
FoN should become significantly stronger with priority.

Also, Cosmic Drive should feel really good for Amumu's AP build, even though he's not a fighter, the MS should help so long as it stays 30%+.

nice guide and bilds

So ive been playing amumu for a while and ive always loved starting red, raptors, and rift and playing it by ear from there. CAn you tell me why this is a bad idea?

Hey LordSquirrel,

Thanks for taking the time to look at this guide!
The Jungle Path section will be remade soon and I'll add explanations shortly after that.

Starting red is fine for almost all junglers but for ones especially reliable on mana (amumu) you would likely get a stronger start. You'll likely be able to get another ability (your W most likely) and not be able to use it, or in the case you started W, you will lose mana quickly.
Raptors and scuttle are both very good options for amumu, especially raptor since his E is a hard counter to them, and scuttle can help restore mana, but keep in mind that some junglers start blue as well and may come up against you. In such case, you'll be level 2 and probably not have a Q to even engage. So there's pros and cons to both sides. Red starts would have more cons.
Hence, I strongly recommend starting blue for the following reasons;
- A stronger start
- A sustainable clear
- and a safer route.
To add-on, the health buff is not a major problem for amumu until your third or fourth camp, and your fourth or fifth is red, in which you will have smite to cover yourself up.

I highly appreciate you taking your time to read my guide and give me feedback.
Please let me know if I have not addressed one of your concerns.
Thanks,
ak521

So i dont often go on this website so i didnt see the reply you sent me but ive been playing more amumu and starting red just seems the best for me. I never have mana problems and throughout my entire jg clear i almost only ever use one of my refillable potions. I start at red, raptors, scuttle and then soak 2 minions mid for level 3 and clear other scuttle. If the jg already took the other scuttle i clear blue and gromp and look for a top gank. If it doesnt look like its possible i clear wolves and head to krugs and look for a bot gank which is usually tough without ult. Ive done this clear almost my entire time playing amumu and it seems really smooth and works like 90% of the tiem and the only times it doesnt work is if i misplay and do soemthing stupid i shouldnt have. I PERSONALLY believe that starting red raptors is his best clear because he clears raptors faster then any jg that ive ever played. Its so strong. THank you for replying to me i honestly didnt expect one.

Hello again, Lord Squirrel;

I totally respect your beliefs and preferences! I've revised the Jungle Routing section. I may add your routing if it works well with me, too (haven't gotten around to trying it yet), but I also would suggest you take a look at the section once again.
One major point I have found while jungling is that by taking the red after, you will have the red buff you will have it when you gank your allies level 4/5. Of course, you can also gank them later when you take the red in its' second spawn, or you can gank without, but I personally love to have Crest of Cinders when I gank.

I will try my best to make time to look over your preferences.
Thanks for your time,
ak521
