Hi everyone, my name is Carson and I am a Masters Jungler and competitive player that believes Hecarim is the strongest jungle champion in the game currently.
I used Hecarim to climb in the early season because he has insane snowball potential that allows him to carry games really hard. In this guide ill try to explain how I play Hecarim and how you can too.
For visual learners, here is a gameplay guide where I explain decision making on Hecarim
Now, when you're playing Hecarim you want to efficiently clear your camps while looking for easy kills setup by your team. Standard path on Hecarim is:
The biggest mechanic to keep track of in Hecarim's early clear is to maintain 2 stacks of Rampage so your Rampage does more damage and is up faster.
During his first clear Hecarim is at his weakest. He can still duel other champions but has to be careful because early is when he is at his most vulnerable. If you are going to make early plays make sure you are doing it off of your laners advantage not forcing plays. Hecarim should be content to power clear camps and play for his 2 item spike of Trinity Force Sterak's Gage.
In late-game fights Hecarim can act as the primary engage for his team or follow up with other engages from his team. Once again Hecarim wants to use his movespeed and Onslaught of Shadows to attack the enemy carries directly to create space for his own team's carries to hit freely.
Hopefully this guide was helpful and let me know in the discussion section if there is anything else you would like to know!
