Spirit Visage is a great item because of everything it gives. (Not just to Mundo, any champs with heals)
but lets talk about how it helps Mundo;

CDR - there aren't many items suitable for Mundo with CDR especially not the amount SV gives you for so cheap. You say it only gives a few seconds off ult? Well when you combine it ith CDR blues, and offensive CDR masteries it's going to be a noticable difference.

Health - Sure, it's not much health but it's still going to synergise with your ult and your passive.
Increased healing and regen - Works on cleaver, works on ult, going to be much more noticable later though, granted.

Magic resist - His MR doesn't scale with level so why you would pass up 30 MR from this item is beyond me. Combined with mercs and you are one hella strong Mundo, flat health doesn't cut it when you can mix health and resistance (keep in mind most people pack MP so you need some MR)

Anyway you're making it sound like you're ONLY buying one item. I normaly have highest cs so buying SV and boots on my first trip back is not uncommon. It's just a short journey from that to a kill in the lane and a snowball into late-game.

No some people are just so in love with SV that they are stuck to it and consider it absolute core..

but I think after the mundo changes (the ultimate nerf)... Sunfire > SV..

That makes no sense, they increased the CD so won't it make sense to get CDR?
Also I'm not saying Sunfire is bad I'm saying get both lol.

Adonikam, I did not mean it offensively, what I actually meant was that depending on the players playstyle they choose SV over GB.

Considering the increased CD on the ultimate, I personally choose to just maximize my health and the healing I get from the ultimate as opposed to reducing the cooldown by a couple of seconds. Spirit visage is decent, it used to be great.. but now Sunfire just is so much better, a ton of health..armor and you can farm like mad.

@Dante
Your argument falls flat. SV both maximizes healing from ult and reduces the time between each ult.

GB is more effective than SV. I know how much you love high ELO players, so take a look at Edvin in EU searz.... he has 97 wins and 31 losses (75.8%), solo 5v5 2.1k rating

He builds mundo with sunfire first and at times he doesnt get any part of SV... he usually chills with a kindlegem and upgrades that later on after he gets FoN, Rand and PD (or even a B.F sword)

check out his match history :D.... just wonder why he would not use SV, if apparently its the best item for mundo. Its up to player preference tbh...(as i mentioned before)

I don't think it matters which one you get first, if the game's over before you have 2 items (3 including boots) then you should play a different champion lol.

Hey, that's not nice :(

My comment still stands. SV is even better now that his ult got nerfed. For the same reasons you said it wasn't..

How was it not nice Searz you big baby!

I would like to point out that he still GETS Spirit Visage. It's just the ordering which is different.
