As someone that mainly plays Support and a couple of ADCs, what's something I can get not-Bronze 5 in Twisted Treeline with?

lolalytics seems to think Taric, Brand or Xin Zhao might be decent? I can sort of play those 3.

So what's the best skill build for jungle Amumu? A friend told me to max W first then Q then E, but I've seen guides that max W->E->Q, as well as E->Q->W or E->W->Q.

All of these seem viable but is there an "accepted" build, does it depend on the matchup, or what?

I can play Kayle as much as right click on things and ult before I die - but don't play it much.

After failing with some champions I "know", I got my TT gold this season by solo-queue spamming Morgana. I haven't touched Morgana in years.

Closest guess, but the correct answer was toplane Ornn.

I go E>W>Q, because I use the E for jungle clearing, then W once I've got going and won't have constant mana issues from using it.

saying 'just gonna test something out here' as soon as the game starts is the best possible way to freak your entire team out. i do recommend it

Turn on your ult and walk at people, mostly. He's a pretty straightforward champ. He's getting the next full rework though so anything you learn about him now is going to be irrelevant in a few months.

W max seems terrible, the damage increase is pretty weak for every rank up, there's no decreased cooldown with ranks, it provides very little damage in ganks and E is significantly better for killing camps that aren't red/blue buff/dragon. Q max is really strong for ganking, E max is fine for farming. Depends on how you want to play Amumu and how receptive your lanes are for ganks. I pretty much always Q max, then E, then W.

max e. even if you gank a lot your ganks with ult are so potent that being able to farm often and being able to guarantee ganks should be enough to keep you going strong. and as for accepted build... most people like to get cinderhulk. you can go ap amumu if you know what you are doing, but that requires you to be on top of your poo poo and it falls off past 35-40 minutes so beware. AP amumu always gets liandries, usually right after jungle item. you can build that on tank amumu too just because it is the best amumu item.

E-Q-W is my order but Q-E-W works if you want to play amumu as an aggressive jungler, personally my style is closer to meteos style jungling so i like the E-Q-W for farming, but adjust to your own playstyle preferences. sorcs for damage, otherwise mobis most the time on amumu, unless you are playing against an all-1-damage type team comp, in which case pick the boots that beat that. rod of ages is too slow as a jungle item but some high elo players like to tinker with it when they play amumu because theoretically it is super good... it does not work out that way. iceborn is alright on him, abyssal mask is amazing, and rylais is pretty good. amumu is very flexible in item builds so unless you are going AP, just tank up to counter their team.

you always want to gank early as amumu because his ganks are very strong, you will burn a flash most of the time. if the enemy has a no mobility lane camp that lane because they will get extremely salty. and remember: if you have valour in your heart you will get morellonomicon. abyssal + morello + blue buff = 40% CDR, and virtually limitless mana. also, morello is the most winning amumu item that is not complete random poo poo(infinity edge amumu has the highest winrate item because if your amumu is building infinity edge you already won the game)

Like if you ever see a buy history where someone inexplicably buys a mana crystal and nothing else it’s either ornn or level 15.
