Introduction

if you haven't played Maokai before you shod proberly test him in privet or solo-cop.
Maokai is actually a combo hore that can be quiet power full if you youse it right.

first you inisiate with w/lock and put sapling behind the target so you hit him with impact and explosion then q/slow to pick up the kill...=)

Masteries

So for Maokai I go for a tanky build with some points in offense. I take all the armor talents, and all of the standard AP/Health tank talents. I believe this is the most effective because it gives you that tanky edge while allowing you to use your moves and be very potent at the same time. Again, this is not set in stone and if it doesn't work for you, try something else that you think works better. Overall I feel like this does the job well for Maokai.You shod spec full in sapling first then lock if you don't wanna follow my masteries exactly. =D

Pros / Cons

Pros:
Can take some damage
Has a grenade-like sapling toss that is funny as hell
Really great initiator
Amazing team support

Cons
Mana dependent / starved (Especially ultimate)
Not the greatest champ for a solo lane (Requires someone else in lane to be the most effective)
Annie can burn your ***...

Some people may argue with me on his solo lane capability, and while its POSSIBLE, I believe him to be the most effective laning with someone.
