did this build change with the new patch? I know Thornmail got buffed with its passive.

Dang dude thanks for the On-hit idea I'll give credits if it turns out that I can make a near-meta build with the on-hit stuff, vouchies

So ravenous hunter is just going away and is being replaced by Treasure Hunter which just gives extra gold for the first takedown on each champ. Are you going to make a new build to replace the ravenous hunter one you have now?

extremely helpful, used it for arams lol worked perfectly

I'm on the Rammus mains Discord and everyone says Sunfire is better and that Deadmans is not worth building anymore. What do you think about this?

+1 for Frillen

I can add that Rammus is very flexible, you can play any build into him, as long as it has a minimum of resists, if you wanna check some other more off-meta but better to snowball builds, make sure to check mine (sry for advertising in your comment section)

132 master players played ranked with Rammus over the past 2 days and these are the item winrates.

Don't trust Rammus mains. Trust data.

After the bramble nerf tragedy of 2021, what do you do in terms of first buys? I know Thornymale doubles the damage on your engage, but between the better engage of thornmail versus the 125% damage increase to jungle monsters that a full Bami's mythic gives, I'm just not sure which is more important for Rammus. I've experimented with full clearing until I have the gold for either a full Thornmail buy or a full Mythic, and my clearing doesnt take much of a hit for it but clearly I miss out on gank opportunities. Because bramble is just 35 armor and a lackluster grievous wounds passive, should I even bother combining two cloth armor until I have the gold for a full Thornmail? Or do buy bamis to sit on for a while and full focus on getting a full Thornmail? Thanks for always keeping up with the guide over the years, you've helped me find my true love in Rammus and his sultry six voice lines, you are an "Ok" dude in my big book of rammus

Emm, Okey...

I haven't been playing a ton since the Bramble nerfs, and all my games have been short, so I only got to finish 1-2 items and haven't really bothered getting Bramble.

I think rushing a jungle item is the most reasonable plan atm to compensate for slow clearing. But don't try to powerfarm in higher elos, jungle exp and gold are nerfed too hard. Only way to win is to gank a lot and enable someone on your team to carry.

I still rush and before I start to worry about Bramble - and only if they have a lot of healing or sustain, or Thornmail late game vs auto attackers.

seems to be performing better than at the moment though. Stay up to date on Leagueofgraphs.com item stats by elo.

, and are also performing really well.

great tips man, thanks for taking the time

My pleasure, good sir gayweedlord!

I love Rammus and I love this guide! Thanks alot for all the useful information and tips for climbing!

I love this kind (of) feedback!

Hey, I don't see any thornmail in the item section. Is there a reason for this? Do you not build that item?

I finish it, but rarely before , and often - and mostly just for the increased anti heal.

Do you have any thoughts on any new builds with the now released Rammus changes?

It's pretty hard to find items that provide more value for at the moment than , , , and . and are decent alternatives to force of nature, but pretty much all the other items are unmatched.

Predator might be a thing tho!

Hey Frillen, so I was just thinking, now that ravenous is a pretty dead rune now as it no longer helps give a healthy first clear and the omnivamp is pretty underwhelming now going from the usual 10k+ healing to now like 2k, I was thinking that riftmaker might be a pretty good item to compensate for the loss in omnivamp and the cheap shot damage loss for running the sorcery runepage. It is more expensive, however I think it might just be a better option when you are ahead early, but obviously when even or behind, it's probably still better to get chemtank. Let me know your thoughts!

Riftmaker is not good early or mid game, but if you go deadmans, gargoyles into Riftmaker 3rd or 4th I'd expect it to be a a very strong late game mythic.

The problem is that nothing really competes with chemtank and deadmans rush at the moment.

yeah you're right honestly. I played 1 game with riftmaker and it felt nice to heal a lot and do some extra damage, but chemtank deadmans is pretty strong. I guess I just gotta adjust my playstyle until ravenous becomes viable again. I swapped over to sorcery secondary and it feels pretty good with the extra movespeed. I'm still making wits end rush work as well which is nice, bramble into wits into chemtank, although once I get into diamond I feel as though I should probably switch on over to straight up tank.

this has helped me so much, especially the part about focusing on the krugs, ive gotten 4 full S grades and two S- in less than 24 hours, im now one S or S+ from mastery level 7 with rammus

I wasn't sure if I should continue our older comments or make a new one, but I made a new one!

With the new changes to jungle coming Rammus is probably going to be hurt even more than the champs with fast clear right? :(

At first glance it doesn't look very fonky. It's a bit of a struggle to keep tempo early already, so seem like we might be going full support Rammus soon. Who knows, maybe the new ult is gonna be so OP that we'll be fine. Or worst case we're gonna suck for a few patches and hope for a buff. It goes up and down!

Hey Frillen,
first of all, I can't really tell why I wanted to read this guide but I'm happy I'm curious enough to read just anything even though I'm main . I really learned a lot thanks to your detailed information and experiences. It's awesome!
If I was asked what I would change on this guide, I'd probably say "Nothing much, maybe add some more pictures, just small stuff to improve the readability but that's all, really."
In other words, this might be one of the most detailed guide's I've ever seen, so all I can say is really: Well done and I hope your guide will help many people to master . :)

Cheers, Wicked Cherry.

Thank you! I hope you have a great weekend :)

Sure no problem. I usually point out in guides what's missing but since your guide is really close to perfection.. xD I think it's also important to say what's good and since you really seem to have put so much work into your guide, it's crucial to cherish your hard work.

Thanks you too! I'm just taking a slow weekend for once, just reading some guides, you know.. :b
