i mentioned in the jarvan theorycraft thread that jarvan plays best as a metagolem and someone asked, 'meta golem? whats that?'


this, my friend, is metagolem.





its a specific build for tanky deeps. there are several characters in the game that are crazy powerhouses when they build metagolem builds. lets name them.


jarvan 4
xin zhao
garen
wukong
lee sin
nasus
gangplank
olaf
trundle
yorick


the list goes on and on. note that the only things mandatory are trinity force, atmas, mercury treads, and either warmogs or frozen mallet. you don't have to get both. oh and its usually mandatory to build a force of nature as well, but what kind of strange golem has 2 chest pieces? also flash is mandatory.


this has been a helpful insight from caucheka. and now you know, and knowing is half the battle.

also this is a little old and the enemy team was bad but still...

I knew about the whole tanky DPS meta with Atmog and Trinity (well, everyone prolly did), but I didn't know about the meta"golem".

There's one thing wrong with the picture. You're supposed to get either TF or FM, not both. But the picture looks better like this and I guess that was the point.

Also, a lot of metagolems use Ghost over Flash, or at least a few. Trundle for example needs da Ghost.

Instead of a Warmog's Armor/ Frozen Mallet, I prefer Banshee's Veil, Randuin's Omen, and a Force of Nature

And If I'm playing GP and doing well, grab an Infinity Edge before going tanky.

If it matters, this works really well on Gragas if you build him AD tank since his Body Slam scales with AD and provides many an opportunity to proc sheen.

Would probably work well on Lee Sin too.

ok let me reiterate.

this is a specific kind of tanky deeps. you can build tanky deeps anyway you want but this specific build works on all the champions mentioned in the op.

Yes, that specific build works with Gragas, and I can see it working really well on Lee Sin.
