Which would be better on:

= Devourer, Warrior, or Cinderhulk + Stalkers, Skirmishers, or Trailblazers? = Cinderhulk + Stalkers, Skirmishers, or Trailblazers? = Devourer, Warrior, or Cinderhulk + Stalkers or Trailblazers? = Cinderhulk + Trailblazers. Stalkers, or Skirmishers? = Devourer, Warrior, or Cinderhulk + Stalkers, Skirmishers, or Traiblazers? = Cinderhulk or Magus + Stalkers or Traiblazers? = Cinderhulk or Devourer + Stalkers or Skirmishers? = Cinderhulk or Devourer + Stalkers or Trailblazers?

If it makes a difference, which ones are the most effective in Silver-elo gameplay - in terms of trying to get a win?

P.S. Would Cinderhulk suck completely on champs like Wu, J4, and Vi when compared to Warriors?

Thank you fellow summoners~

Warriors on Wu, Cinderhulk on Vi and J4

Depends on how you are building the champion overall.

Cinderhulk - tanky Warrior - early game AA/ability damage Devourer - late game AA damage Magus - AP

Devourer is really only an option on AA-focused champs like Udyr or Yi, maybe someone like Shyv who can farm to stack it really high. Someone like Vi or Jarvan will get more impact from the AD and ArPen on Warrior.

Magus is only an option on AP junglers, obviously.

To choose between Cinderhulk and Warrior/Devourer/Magus you'd have to evaluate your whole build. Cinderhulk's bonus health scaling isn't worth that much if you don't buy other items with health. Devourer and then going tanky might be a good option on champs like Udyr or Shyv.

As far as smites, when in doubt I go with trailblazer. Fast clears, objective control, sustain. If you're going with Decourer you almost certainly want that so you can farm camps faster. The slowing one is probably the second best option, as catching someone out of position during a hank or team fight is really strong. If you're going for the damage one you'd better be getting lots of kills only because of it.

There are no definitive answers, what you take is usually situational to your matchup and preference/comfortability.

Udyr I won't comment on, I'm a terrible godyr - though I assume item 3726 would be best. Nautilus I like item 3709 as I have a hard time landing his anchor. Skarner item 3723 Maokai never jungled with him XinZhao either item 3710 or item 3707 , depending on enemy team comp Amumu if you have hard time laning bandage toss, item 3725 if not Shyvana is my preference Shen Don't recommend jungling shen, his early clear times are slow af for a meta that's currently focusing the early and mid-game.

As far as Cinderhulk vs Warrior, Cinderhulk is better taken on champs with AoE damage or stuns going out - Wu, J4 and Vi are never going to have AoE damage (with the exception of Wu's Nimbus Strike), and it's never going to be constant. An example of champs who synergize well with Cinderhulk are Hecarim Sejuani , where those you mentioned use that warrior enchantment as an early powerspike.

Again, the jungle item choices are just my preference.

Get Devourer on Shyv as she scales with AS. You can still get a sunfire on her. Jungle Shyv is generally a better bruiser than full tank and she works great with bork and TF.

Vi could get cinderhulk but you need a little AD on her and I don't think TF is enough.
