Hello,

So I've been playing Malphite Jungle because I think, After lvl 6, He's "da" boss. Jokes aside, I always have tons of fun with Malphite on top, however, I've become much better with many other champions at top... And Top is always asked first on chat, so I've decide to try something else with Malphite mainly because the junglers I'm good at ( Udyr and Rammus), are not that fun to play (at least to me).

Anyway, I went a little bit off topic

My current Item build is:

Hunter's Machete >5 Red pots> Boots> Rush to Wriggle's Lantern > Ninja Tabi or Mercury's Treads > Sunfire Aegis > Randuin's Omen > Frozen Heart > Spirit Visage > Thornmail.

^^^ That's what I play most the time, but I was Thinking that, may be, this other build would be better for Malphite jungle.

Hunter's Machete >5 Red pots> Boots> Rush to Wriggle's Lantern > Mobility Boots > Rush to Trinity Force> Sunfire Aegis > Randuin's Omen > Frozen Heart > Spirit Visage >

What do you think, guy. would it be viable?

EDIT: Trinity Force + Mobility Boots DOES ACTUALLY WORKS ON MALPHITE JUNGLE

All these 3 games, were using The Trinity build+ Mobility Boots and Spirit of the Ancient Golem on the last one.

It's working a little bit better than I expected, I'll keep researching on the next few weeks, and if I keep on my win ratio like this... I'll probably make a guide :D

dont get Wriggle's Lantern especially on Malphite, spirit stone items are all better, im assuming youll want the golem one because you want to be a tank

i personally dont like Malphite as a jungler because hes slow and mana costs are a bit high

I'll try the Spirit Stone. I'm just trying out to see what works with him.

Yeah Malphite is not a perfect jungler, but so far I'm having tons of fun with him.

I've played some games with the Trinity force and... It's working out. The Mobility Boots + Trinity Force gives him tons of freedom to roam around, caught someone off of position and get a free kill, and it's great to get to huge minions waves that are pushing hard. Plus, with the Sunfire Aegis it really give more Burst Damage than I expected.

I'll keep updating with the result of the Trinity Force

I think the biggest tip would be NOT to play Malphite in the jungle since his clear uscks and he needs gold so he doesn't just get blown up. Plus he is only really played in specific team comps top or as a counter pick because of his crazy attack speed slow.

Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut, if you really insist.

> Spirit of the Ancient Golem
> Ninja Tabi
> Randuin's Omen / (or if fed) Sunfire Aegis

That would be a general core. Since you would usually be picking malph into ad comps, if however, you are stuck against an ap comp.

> Spirit of the Ancient Golem
> Ninja Tabi / Mobility Boots
> Locket of the Iron Solari / Spirit Visage / (or if fed) Abyssal Mask

But that build is no where near as optimal. ^

You could also potentially go for something crazy like a Rammus jungle build.

> Madred's Razors
> Ninja Tabi / Mobility Boots
> Randuin's Omen / Sunfire Aegis

However, since I never play Malph jungle I can't really support any of these builds with any back up information or experience :3
But generally, only try the 'odd' rammus style build if you need more jungle clear and they have minimal cc.
Happy jungling. C:
