Ivern questions for ivern mains
Been playing a lot of ivern lately and I love him. I have a couple questions.
I usually invade just to ward to find what buff/chickens their jungler is starting. Then go opposite and steal his other buff. Sometimes this invade costs me my flash, and one time I died(but it was my fault I was cheezing with their support and their team came). Even after burning flash I often win the game.
Q1. Besides asking team to help invade/ward (which I do, and sometimes they co-operate and sometimes they don't.) What is your method to your lvl 1 route. do you just guess where they start?
I find the jungle item a waste for him. only time I miss it is if I try to solo dragon without dasie. (not often) I will sometimes upgrade it too green for wards then I can get red trink. I don't like to upgrade it past but I have tried both 
and 
and I find I like cinder better.
Q2. Do you usually finish your jungle item at all? and if you do what do you build it into.
Q3. Do you build ap? if so what?
Sometimes I get way ahead and second or third item I could afford a cheese carry item. The couple times i have though i bought 
one game and 
another. i felt no benefit from it and if anything it hindered me.
Q4. What items do you rush? I love rushing 
but almost all guides say 
is essential. I don't even find it worth purchase most games. my build usually goes rush 
then , 
or 
and then 
after that usually zzrots just cus i love it then i go tanky. Second or third item i may get 
if its needed. (ashe, malz)
Q5. Is kind of a game by game basis so i don't expect a strait answer or even one at all, but basically how do you use your w (bush) in teamfights. Do you try to set up walls for your team early and hope the teamfight stays where it is?(often backfires and bushes become usefull to the other team) or do you use them mid fight? If the latter do you use them on your front line or your backline?
Q6. I have looked this up and it seems to have no definite answer. Does iverns shields count towards damage mitigated in the end stats? if so i don't think its right cus mine is usually lower then i expect. (last game a zed had the most on our team and idk how a zed mitigates damage.)
