yknow i called it a while back now that you released all these god tier ad items. so you have a champ that specifically targets god ad? must. smash. with. NERFBAT!!! now that people take him toplane you decide to gut his jungling ability instead.

very nice.

FYI outside an ad meta rammus performs rather poorly and gets counterjungled the fuk out of him by any fast clearing jungler.

edit: CrestKnight dropped a nice suggestion

increased damage to monsters with W to help him clear jungle. since many rammus junglers time our ults with 60 seconds to clear a camp get a second camp then gank and and have ult up again

It's not going to kill him, it's just that now he'll actually have a cooldown on his ult early game. They did the same thing to Maokai repeatedly.

too bad he needed it most of the time to clear ffing camps in jungle just to keep up

I've never felt the need to ult jungle camps as rammus. When I jungle him, most of my gold comes from kills/assists/holding lanes.

the ult change only really hurts lane rammus, which i agree with, i would have time to back and buy, and Q homeguards back to lane and ult the big wave again while also being unfightable to melees while i cleared the wave.

however he does need a jungle buff, which i would recommend W (defensive ball curl) dealing increased damage to monsters being a good direction for it.

??????? and who used the ult to clear camps? maybe 30+minutes in and im just waiting for the next baron or something on the map and im not really ganking anymore. or were just waiting on revive timers to make something happen. i very rarely used ult for clearing camps. (which was exclusively for blue/red)

Why would you play the ARMORdillo other than as a counter to the meta of a full AD team? I wouldn't pick Rammus into an AP team just like I wouldn't pick Galio into a full AD team. They both are niche picks IMO. Plus Rammus has some amazing early ganks, which kinda offset his poor clears.

Everything has counters, especially so in niche picks.
