Please buff amumu

I personally feel like ever since his W damage got dropped and he got his new passive, he's felt pretty terrible to play.

He's basically just an R-Bot now. Same reason Annie is getting re-worked.

His W damage is basically ignorable unless you build full AP glass cannon Amumu, and even then.... you're still just an R-Bot. You're just a AoE Nuke R-Bot instead of an AoE CC tank R-Bot.

His jungle clear is not great. His 1v1 potential is next to nothing, which keeps him from counter jungling. His build path is this awkward middle-ground between tanky and damage amplification to synergize with his passive, so he doesn't really compare in tanky-ness with other tanks, and he doesn't compare in damage with mages. He's in this weird in between spot where maybe he might want to be an AP bruiser...but not really because his kit doesn't support the playstyle.

Literally the only time I ever pick him is if my team has a support or mid lane Brand, because Brand + Amumu is straight up broken.

other than that, I'd pick just about any other jungle tank before I picked amumu. Sejuani accomplishes a lot of the same things, but does them better. Zac same thing, does basically everything amumu does but better.

Very very sad, considering he's my absolute favorite champion, both to play and lore-wise. Almost 300k mastery on him, and I was playing him long before mastery was even a thing - so probably much higher than that.

I miss my mummy. he needs a rework to make him current, but in the mean time maybe a small buff to his W damage would help him keep pace with his fellow CC tank junglers. until then I guess I'm stuck playing stupid slime man or pig lady.
