Hey guys, My name is DCoded and I have been maining Hecarim since the start of Season 5. I feel that this champion has a lot of potential in Solo Q if you take the time to learn him.

Pros

Great Early - Mid game
Great Sustain with W
Your E gives you insane movement speed

Cons

Mana Hungry Early
Lacks hard CC
Slows counter him hard

Smite Essential Spell for Junglers


Ghost Gives Hecarim more movespeed, and more movespeed = more damage


Teleport You can take this if you want those sick tp homeguard ganks


Ignite Viable on hecarim but there are better spells


Flash Just dont take this spell on hecarim, Its trash on him.
