So i just played a couple games as hecarim
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.
