I honestly think she's one of the most underrated junglers in the game rn. And yes, I know that basically all junglers turned weak thanks to this patch (8.10), but I still want to try her. Any suggestions on builds? Runes? Jungle path? Ability order? How to use abilities? (I haven't even tried her yet, but I want a good idea of what to expect when I start)
Thanks :)
anmyauntieonpo2 votesunless you're playing in bronze where people dont understand anything, you're going to likely lose with her on these new jungle changes. She can't fight for scuttle which she needs early for her marks. she's worthless.
as far as builds go. you want to always go red smite. Your jungle item depends on the situation. If their team comp is pretty tanky or they get alot of armor or you wanna focus the tanks and be frontline for your team, you want to go blood razor enchantment(yellow) into black cleaver or BotRK 2nd item. If its a normal team comp or you want to play back line you want to go warrior(red enchantment) into either shiv or rapid fire cannon. Some people go Runaans. I think the other two options are better. After your second item you can upgrade your boots, or earlier if you have equivalent gold. Berserkers Grieves mostly, but situationally merc or tabis. You want to finish out your build with Infinity edge and situational stuff. Phantom dancer is also an item you can build if you're front-lining. GA, Zeal Items, BotRK, Armor Pen, even Merc Scim. Just finish the build out situationally.
as far as abilities you take w first point for first camp. then you max q, then max w. Your Q is your main damage dealer and can act as an escape or gap closer. Your W you want to activate in every fight or on as many camps as possible. You need to be inside of your W during this time. Also be single target focused because the 3rd attack does more when you activate your E. It also slows them. Your R acts kind of like tryndamere ultimate but for everyone and you have to stay in the area of effect. Once its finished you also gain health back. So save your Q for when its about to end to finish them off. Also when you are ganking make sure to mark the target you are about to gank before going in.

they, them, just plural
PiggyTheAstro1 votesHere's my suggestionL don't.
I bought kindred about a week ago, thought I'd enjoy it since I like other marksmen jungles but no, they are ridiculously weak early game, no sustain, tiny amount of mobility and a crap ton of RNG, I don't like my journey all the way to the enemy base to get an oviraptor taking up 300 pages if it was put into a book. The jungle changes killed Kindred, I was expecting some compensation buffs, but it was miniscule.
I read patch notes AFTER the patch comes out (call me a weirdo all you like) but I'm pretty sure ranged AD itemisation is getting hurt, so RIP Teemo top and Gnar top you shall not be missed by everyone except me, Urgot... Well... You were real good son... maybe even the best.[cass-cry]
Wait, wouldn't Urgot get better because melee top would get more popular? IDK, haven't read the patch notes.
