Has anyone had success jungling with Kha'zix yet?
(Updated with results of new build below)
Honestly asking; i played a few games last night (1 as Kha'zix), and i had a horrible time. I went with the recommended items of Talisman and Flask (Mistake #1), started Krugs w/ leash and went to red, where i was executed (extremely embarrassing, i play a lot of khazix). The whole game i had to back after 2 camps until i got hunter's flask, by which time i was too far behind to do much.
If anyone else has had success, please let me know what you did.
My plans for next games:
- start machete + 3 pots (why does Riot recommend Talisman for Kha'zix!?!?)
- go Q->W->W->E, maxing W, because pre-6 ganks are basically impossible now and i need the sustain
- Try to build
->
->
. Youmous def seems strong right now; the Tiamat nerfs mean that it doesn't seem worth rushing
anymore.
This is just my prospective plan; i'll update tonight when i'm able to test this out.
UPDATE: Just had a pretty successful game with him, i'll explain how i did:
-
0/18/12 masteries, with Thunderlords Decree, and AD/Armor/CDR rune page (my standard for Khazix)
-
IGNORE THE RECOMMENDED ITEMS and started Machete + 3 pots
-
Gromp w/ leash + smite --> Wolves --> scuttle --> blue --> fail gank (they spotted me, i got out, recalled) (yes i actually had enough health to gank!)
-
Buy poachers knife, a pink, and some pots, then clear red side. At this point i am sustaining well enough to look for ganks.
-
After poachers knife, rush
, a very efficient item. Didn't upgrade poachers until afterwards, not sure if ideal to skip. got Warriors as 2nd item. -
Tried to go Titanic after that, but game got out of hand late and couldn't get the gold. Not sure tiamat items are worth picking up until late, anymore; will experiment with other items later.

Results: 9/4/7, did fairly well, but bot lane got demolished and Garen started getting fed. Definitely a promising build path for Kha'zix though
