How to Off Meta: Dr Mundo Support

Greetings forum people/things, today I would like to present you with a fairly functional off meta build that some of you will enjoy

Most of you are probably questioning how a guy with 0 abilities to boost allies could be a support, and that is what I intend to explain

Part 1: The Kit

Mundo has a very straight forward kit, and 3 abilities that make him actually a fair threat as a support

Passive- % max HP regen, basically lets you eat skillshots targeted at your ADC with less risk than them taking them Q- Does 20% max HP damage at rank 1 (with 80 damage minimum) and a 40% slow for 2 seconds, that makes him an excellent harasser with how short its CD is with the HP refund as well, generally speaking its the ability you max first W- Minimal damage + small tenacity (being buffed to flat 30% at all ranks next patch) just lets you safely eat skillshot CC for your ADC, max it las E- AA reset, bonus AD, bonus MR when using abilities, its early damage is actually quite high on squishy supports/ADC who you can get on thanks to your Q slow spam, max it 2nd R- Massive self HoT (50-100% max HP depending on rank), basically lets you stand directly in front of your ADC and eat everything, or ping your JG to do a tower dive with little to no risk

Overall, it makes him both a good tank and excellent lane harasser (remember ezreal support? Yea like that but with tank stats)

Part 2: The Build

item 3302 will generally be your support item, lets you heal your ADC and gives you HP, technically you could do item 3303 if you're a sniper with Q's for more gold but the stats are almost worthless item 3109 will be your first real item, extra armor and HP, plus more defense for your ADC, you'll easilly have the HP to take any damage redirected to you with 0 issues item 3190 large shield for everyone around you, considering your last 2 items will just be whatever tank items are needed for the opposing team, you'll have a fair chunk of HP making the shield quite good

Your boots/last 2 items vary depending on the other teams threats, build MR or armor accordingly although item 3065 is usually safe regardless

Part 3: Rooooooons

Something like this https://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/rune-page-planner#&rune=Sorcery:8:70:37:40::Resolve:45:49:::Shards:3:4:4 They cant dodge your comets because of Q slow, the cloak makes you turbo mundo for ult, transcendence since you rarely build full CDR, scorch extra poke Font of life is the spicy rune for you, since you can almost permanently slow people with your Q's, your allies attacking will get healed constantly off them Overgrowth and the rest of the last runes are a personal choice, its really more up to you, slightly stronger healer/more hp/hp on hit

Part 4: The Playstyle

Q, Q, Q, Q, Q, Q, Q

Make the opposing ADC hate even going near minions out of the fear of being hit by another cleaver Stand in front of your ally just to eat skillshots if they can't dodge them Press R when diving/engaging/low hp and be near immortal since most people forget executioners exists

Final Thoughts:

Is Mundo the best support? No Is he a functional support that will catch people off guard with how much damage he can pump out? Absolutely

I recommend playing with a friend as the ADC or at least normals first before you even think of utilizing this madman strategy in ranked

Support Ashe does everything mundo could do but better. Cleavers are minion blocked, so theres no reason for the ADC to not just stand in their minion wave and win trades by default when your ADC tries to last hit or trade and forces the entire minion wave to aggro them while the troll next to them does absolutely nothing to help.

There's no shortage of decent supports that can do a ton of damage in lane by mindlessly pressing Q
