Warpath: This passive helps
Hecarim have a little extra damage, especially with
Ghost and
Devastating Charge activated.
Rampage Q: This will be your main ability for maximizing damage. When you get max stacks(2), this AOE attack will deal about 50%-75% damage. This also goes perfect when you have
Sheen or
Trinity Force.
Spirit of Dread W: Right here is what will make you such a threat while in lane. When
Spirit of Dread is activated, you are granted with lifesteal AND spell vamp during these four seconds. Plus, the DOT along with this grants spell vamp. Ridiculous sustain.
Devastating Charge E: Lets say that you want to gank the other lane that is being pushed around. When activated, your movement speed is drastically increased for a 3 second duration. Along with the movement speed buff, it grants a knockback which can be used to push a chasing enemy back into your teammates or away from them.
Onslaught of Shadows R: League of Legends very first AOE fear ability, and an excellent chasing/ambushing ult.
Onslaught of Shadows does AOE damage, AOE fear, and a huge dash that can go through walls. Great gap closer for those teamfights that I know you look forward to.

x3: I like the early movement speed to dodge skills shots from the opposing laner. The 3
Health Potion give you 450 effective health for longer lane life. If you don't feel confident with this, you can try either
Doran's Blade or
Doran's Shield for extra offense/defense.
-
: Great sustain on top of
Spirit of Dread. AND the fact that you get a free ward that can be placed at red for ganks or at dragon for map awareness. 23 attack damage and 30 armor doesn't hurt either.
-
or
or
: I mainly build
Mercury's Treads for the tenacity so you can keep moving. If the team comp is AD heavy with minimal CC, then run
Ninja Tabi. If you feel that you are just steam rolling the other team at this point, go with
Berserker's Greaves.
-
or
: This is where some thinking comes into play. If you want more damage and don't fear of being killed quick, then build
Sheen before
Aegis of the Legion. If you are being pushed around a lot and cant get in there do damage, build
Aegis of the Legion before
Sheen. I normally go defensive first due to the fact that you have
Wriggle's Lantern for deal that extra damage.
-
: This is the bread and butter of all the items for
Hecarim. All-around stats, 25% chance for slow on hit, and (my favorite part) increases your attack damage by 150% for the next attack, which is perfect when proc on
Rampage.
-
: Great item to help raise your MR without sacrificing damage output.
-
: This is a great way to round off your stats for endgame.
I like to run
Hecarim in top lane to maximize his farm and level. If you notice that your counterpart has disappeared and on his/her way to bottom lane, you might get there last. That is a good moment for you right there. You can use
Onslaught of Shadows to either get the opposing team off your teammates or to turn the tides in a lopsided fight. If you meet up for just a straight up brawl, open with
Onslaught of Shadows then try to use
Devastating Charge to pick out the squishy or "need to die". Try to activate
Spirit of Dread to maximize the AOE damage.





All in all,
Hecarim is one of the best chasers in the game. He has great durability, can still deal massive amounts of damage, survive teamfights with ease, and has top class ganks.
