Fully Upgraded Jungle Item Vs. Ravenous Hydra on AD Jungler

TaylorGaylor·1/29/2015, 8:46:57 PM·2 votes·715 views

I'm starting to think that the +50 AD +10% CDR +10 ArPen is definitely NOT worth (1500 more gold and) rushing and not better than Ravenous Hydra. I'm thinking about going Machete + Potion + Potion to start and then rushing Tiamat and the 800 gold life-steal thingy. As soon as I buy Hydra the jungle because completely defenseless against me, my clear time goes up immediately, and the game overall, feels as if it becomes smoother.

Perhaps I should consider rushing the Stalker's Enchantment and THENNNN rushing Hydra..?

Idk. What do you think?

(I usually jungle with Shaco, but I know lots of junglers rush a Hydra, including Rek'Sai. So it's definitely not a bad strategy.)

Is the enchantment even worth buying at all??

It's about cheap stats very early. There are no other items that give 45 AD, 10% CDR, and 10 arpen for 1500g.

Hydra makes the jungle into easy mode. I'd like it if they could somehow rework THAT into the AD jungler item.
