The different builds/Introduction
2. Lane Amumu for 3's - In my opinion Amumu is the best tank in 3v3s because of his high damage and good cc. You can use this for laning in 5v5s but it is not as good as jungling. (Switch out Lucidity boots for Merc treads)
3. Amumu Jungle Ap tank for 5s - Use this build if your fed once you buy your sunfire cape. If you are fed you can burst their squishies from full to zero.
Smite - If your jungling
Flash - Escaping, Juking, Positioning for your ult or Bandage toss
Exaust - If your laning
Ok
Ghost - If you suck with flash
Exaust - If your jungling your going to want an escape or chasing mechanism
Heal - If your jungling at a low level this will help
Teleport - If your solo top this will help in 5s but I would still go with Flash/Exaust (Switch it out with Exaust)
Bad
Basically everything else
Using the AP build in 3v3 is completely fine if you are looking for more damage in team fights especially since towers do less damage in 3v3s.
Archangels Staff - A good switch with Guardian Angel if you are not good at conserving mana
Zhonya's Hourglass - Switch with Randuins Omen if you dont need as much Armor or the slow is not needed in teamfights
Mercury Treads - If 2 or more of them have stuns
Thornmail - If they are lacking Magic Damage Switch with FoN
Banshees Veil - If they have weak or no physical damage switch this with Randuins or Gaurdian Angel
5v5
Amumu
Thornmail - Look above
Banshees Veil - If they have few spells that they can waste to break Banshees (Switch with FoN) or if they have weak Physical Damage (Switch with Randuins Omen)
Boots of Lucidity - If they have 2 or less stuns/snares/Fears/Taunts
Aegis of the Legion - I am putting this here to put possible items you can switch it out if you get past your full build (Which is rare)
AP - Lichbane or Zhonya's Hourglass
Tank - Zhonya's Hourglass or Rabadons Deathcap
and get the one you dont choose for themselves. (Though the second only happens rarely)
Start with cloth armor and 5 hp pots but DO NOT GET A RANK IN ANY SKILL. Go to your blue and wait with your team there. If the enemy team tries to counter jungle get tantrum if its a 5v5 otherwise despair is decent. If your team will win the fight go in and kill them. If they wont start at Wraiths-->Wolves--Double Golemns-->Blue-->Wolves. Then work your way down to double golemns
If they dont counter jungle or you win the teamfight with despair go to blue (Try to heal a bit before starting it if you were in a teamfight) have your mid leash and just pop despair with a hp pot and take it--> wolves (with a hp pot if you were a teamfight)--> Wraiths hp pot --> Red hp pot--> Double golemns (Hp pot if at less than 4 bars)
You must give it away

If they demand it
-
Ryze
Alistair (But if you have two tanks you have a problem)
Morgana
Fiddlesticks (Early Game)
If you have a Soraka in skype/ventrillo who is willing to give you mana you can give your Blue to a AP carry that isnt capped on CDR
The Bandage toss method - The most know way for Amumu to iniate. Bandage toss in (preferably on one of their squishies) and ult once the rest of your team gets into the teamfight.
Bush iniation - Have your whole team Hide right next to you in the edge of a bush that the enemy team will enter. Once their whole team appears in your sight use flash or bandage toss to position yourself so that your Ult can hit every person on their team with one of their squishy carries withing focus range of your team.
Run in and Distract them (for AP build only)- You may take a bit more damage before the fight happens but if you cant run in and FOCUS their AD carry with your spells you can burst them down from full to 0.
Once your in a teamfight you need to stick to the players with the highest damage and spam your spells on them. NEVER CHASE WITHOUT YOUR TEAM. If an enemy starts to run and the rest of their team stays in the fight your team will die without you.
