Love panth in jg, I start W and go red with the lifesteal jg item, then warriors and mobi boots (or merc treads if you want) and then Black Cleaver, Yomuus, and then tank. If you're way ahead against MR, Maw is a viable option. Your level 3 gank against a pushed solo laner is 95% guaranteed flash/kill. Generally I don't open with W on a gank, it's better to catch someone with a mobility move if they try to escape, or save it for disengage if you get counterganked. W passive used to work on drag/baron, no longer the case, but still it is absolutely vital to jungling without getting too low.

THat seems really fragile just when Panthers is falling off. cleaver youmou and warrior is also a really expensive core for a jg. Maybe things have changed since I last jungled regularly but I used to go warrior -> brutalizer -> tank. Maybe warrior cleaver tank?

Give me your favorite non meta yet still effective picks like xin top, I think it's partially so effective because it surprises people. Anyway xin with lane gold is a monster initiator and a big lane bully too

Malphite mid all day every day. Every teamfight after 20 minutes, you kill two people with your combo to open the fight, die, and then your team cleans up the 4v3.

Servaetes I'll try it your way first. Attack and move speed are fun. Why ga first after core? And do you use smart cast or regular on his ult, feels like it might be hard to judge how far you can jump without the indicator

Holy hell, that rift herald looks like it shreds towers like they're made out of paper.

It only does that much damage on its first strike, and the damage on every hit is determined by its hp apparently

I'd see myself holding onto the Baron recall forever, only firing off rift herald for a base tower or a nexus tower. That's kinda dumb how much damage it does on the first boop

yeah baron recall is too tasty to give up quickly but I bet a good strat would be to take first tower, wait until your team engages a 4 or 5 v 4, then release the kraken on the inner and base turrets, could probably take both unless your team gets completely bodied. Seems like stopping it is going to take more than one person, since although it doesn't target champs you will just get wailed on by the split pusher while you're trying to kill the bug

Turnrate is a dumb thing that doesn't exist. This game ain't dota, it ain't balanced like dota, the similarities between the two games end at "lanes with minions in them that you kill for money"

uh what are you arguing against, i never said turnrate exists in league in fact i said that it has zero turnrate. i'm really confused

anyway warwick is really cool and fun and i'm glad to play him. i really like his rework definitely more than any other rework since sion. i dont really play sion anymore but his rework owned.

his ganks are pretty good even pre six and after six well boy oh boy he is really good. if they don't flash the fear they get eaten, if you come up behind them its like whoa! whats this big wolf bat thing doing behind me! and then bam they're dead. its super weird to me to not finish a jungle item right away, but tiamat into tank then finish hydra, cynderhulk, etc seems like its a really good build path. is bork still good on him after youre tanky enough?

there was this cool part where i knew the other team was baiting baron so I hit E, ran into the banana bush with my team behind me, and got dog piled by all five members. i died but it took a good ten seconds or so during which twitch was shooting green stuff all over the other team and we won and got baron and turned the game around. E is a really really good skill and i like it a lot. after trying both W max and 3 points in W, max Q, max E, max W i like the latter better. i think that was saffron's order? sorry servaetes.

did yall know his Q does percentage health damage?? i didnt until last game. it is really good to max by midgame because of that i think. i still cant get it to follow up reliably, not sure what i'm doing wrong, i usually click it when i'm out of range and then hold it when i get near and it still doesn't follow them sometimes.

can you play warwick top? i wonder how his matchups there go. maybe i will try it out in flex queue and report back. thanks for reading my post, gowby out.

It's cool, I tried Q maxing over the weekend and it's good. Really all three of his base abilities are incredibly strong and I bet one of the three is gonna get hit, probably the percentage damage reduction on E.

Hashishin, the ur-toplane autist plays toplane WW, so you might wanna look at his profile

I hope they don't nerf him! Is his winrate or use in competitive unusually high? He seems well balanced to me. Yeah I'll check out hashinshin, top lane ww appeals to me
