Amumu build.

[quote=SkidmarkD]Hi,[/quote]

[quote=Alcasea]although not completely unviable full AP amu will just be focused down when he initiate. HP/AP in the sense that you only build liandrys torment is probably nice and would yield damage and still being able to initiate flawlessly. MR+Armor/AP is just plain stupid in S3 as HP is much much much more cheaper now and more useful all around. although, you can do an HP/Resistance/liandry would be the most optimal. also there is nothing wrong with your build ^^[/quote]

[quote=Joshified]Building ap on [[Amumu]] is only when either, you are so fed that you can just kill everyone :3 They only other time I would build a solid ap item, is if you are that tanky that 1. You aren't being focused at all in team fights and 2. You are lacking ap damage and have another tank champ or 2 (like [[Shen]] or [[Galio]]).[/quote]

[quote=NicknameMy]You can also go the magic penetration build. [[liandry's torment]]+[[sunfire cape]]+[[abyssal scepter]]+[[sorcerer's shoes]]+[[rylai's crystal scepter]]+Whatever. Do ridiculous amounts of sustained % HP dmg while still beeing tanky, especially if your last item is something like [[randuin's omen]]. Together with your mpen makrs (possibly even glyphs+quints, but others are better), mastery and your passive you penetrate around 100 MR.[/quote]

[quote=Darcurse]Liandry'S and Abyssal are ok as damage items to make you a tad scarier. Don't think about getting any more in a serious SR game.[/quote]

[quote=NicknameMy][[Sunfire Cape]] and [[Rylai's Crystal scepter]] both add tankyness aswell. Maybe just trade out boots.[/quote]

[quote=NicknameMy]i meant trade out Sorcerer's Shoes for Mercury's Treads.[/quote]

[quote=Joshified][quote=SkidmarkD] It might even be more viable than my full tank one, considering people (always) run when the jungler comes ganking. More dmg = more certainty of getting the gank. And less need of diving to get it. Add to that Rylai's slow..... Still need to check the trade-off vs survivability, but I'll be trying it out real soon. [/quote] The problem I see with damage [[amumu]] is that he can be focused down so much easier. If you become a high damage threat, chances are the enemy team will just destroy you first then move through to the carry instead. Lets use your scenario of ganking. Lets say.. you bought [[Haunting Guise]]/[[Rylai's crystal scepter]] instead of a tanky build like [[spirit of the ancient golem]]/[[randuin's omen]] and go to gank bot. IF the enemy is pushed all the way to your tower then you are in a pretty easy position to obliterate them, but lets say they are about mid way and see you coming before you can catch them. A squishy [[amumu]] who does lots of damage then has to back off, while a tanky [[amumu]] could probably just dive the enemy bot lane and allow his adc to deal the damage for him. I am personally a fan of building extremely tanky on most junglers, as it is primarily your job to start the fights for your team and get out alive. Maybe swap up the boots for [[Sorcerer's shoes]], but I would personally find [[boots of mobility]] to benefit you and the team more.[/quote]

[quote=NicknameMy][[sunfire cape]] + [[abyssal scepter]] are your first items, which are tanky. Tanky items which also give you damage have the highest priority here. After that, you are free to get [[liandry's torment]] and [[rylai's crystal scepter]]. Don't forget, they also give both HP. You could also put your mayor defense item between those two.[/quote]

[quote=Joshified]I like building tanky because I love diving turrets. I hate how people think turrets are safe, so I take it upon myself to teach them all just how wrong they are C:[/quote]
