Opinions on a Tanky Jungler?

Ignoring the fact that two of them are incredibly cheap and I should have them anyway, I'm trying to decide between Zac, Rammus, and Amumu.

I realized I don't have many tank junglers, at least since Maokai started being a top laner, and I'd like to hear some opinions. Not too interested in how strong the champion is or how much they cost, just how fun their kit is, or how interesting their personality is. I'll probably wait until next Tuesday to see if any of them get on free week before buying them.

It's worth noting that I've always had issues when it comes to ganking as a jungler (When every other jungler ganks, their enemy's as good as dead; when I gank, I'm just a slight annoyance, if not a free kill), so that'd probably influence my decision some.

EDOT: Apparently I can't see the results of my own poll unless I vote myself, so consider Zac as having 1 less than he has.

If your using a Tank Jungler, you must have the support of your team, because they will be the one providing the damage. That's kinda the reason you may be little more than an annoyance, because tank Junglers don't have the damage to kill the enemy out right.

If you have your team, then your focus as a Tank Jungler should be Lock up. Rammus should be a good option for this because of his taunt. Also a pretty good option against an AD heavy comp.

On the flip side, Either Zac, or Amumu, would have better team engage ultimates. Which would be helpful in the mid/late game.

Zac might be a middle ground between the two, but it's really a matter of what you want to accomplish, playing said champion.
