And he feels REALLY strong right now. Holy crap i dumped on the enemy botlane. Repeatedly. The extra knockback on e is HUGE. It's basically double what it was before in terms of knockback.

His first clear would be rough but i learned that if i get a smiteless leash on gromp i can smite the blue for mana, which lets me get more rampages. Once i have blue i can just spam rampage through all the jungle camps and full clear with full hp. Hit a lane or kill enemy jungler then go b for machete and then swifties asap. Hit bot as soon as i hit 6 and double kill. I've been building warrior into dead mans/iceborn/spirit visage and just owning people. Man hec feels awesome to play. Definitely goin to be one of my main junglers this season.

Been doing the same all season with him. The added knockback to E (combined with R once you get it down correctly) is devistating to the backline target.

His early clear is a little rough and if the enemy invades your blue you're going to be behind but you can still smite gromp and survive on your base mana, just take it easy on how often you Q. Once every 2-3 seconds is enough. Make sure you finish gromp with your Q to refresh the cooldown so you can keep the lowered cooldown for bluebuff.

As a personal preference, I run ghost and rush CDR on Hec.

My normal build is to rush warriors/blue enchant and boots 3, then either Sheen or Glacial Shield (which I build into Frozen Heart, keeping Sheen around for Triforce) and use the rest of the slots for situational tanky or DPS items.

Good luck either way! Enjoy your new Freelo champ!
