A Pitch Fk'in Black Dark Horse pick : JG MissFortune ...

I've tried this and had very surprising results.

Lots of mobility (Passive is a built in item 3117 buff for christ's sake) and quick jg clears makes her a really strong ganker pre 6. And shes HILLARIOUSLY fast if she picks up some item 3117 but its really not needed i pref item 3006.

It also alows her to rush her 1st 2 items before getting boots. (Mind you she'll be really slow if she gets his so you must know how to use her passive well.)

And once she hits lvl 6, you can scare the crap out of people with low HP by ulting them under the turret while still in the jungle. This is EXTREMELY satisfying.

Shes kinda weak vs monsters pre lvl 3 so that may be when shes her weakest. Picking up a trailblazer will help but once she hits lvl 3 its really not needed, so i pick up a stalker's blade to help her kite / gank.

If you're haveing problems keeping your hp up while clearing i'd probably get a trailblazer. But then again if you're having that prob you probably shouldn't be playing MissFortune jg.

She kinda does has a prob with aggressive JGs, but I found this can be a blessing in disguise. 9 out of 10 games they'll invade (even if they don't have strong early game).

They'll think "MissFortune jg that's just stupid." Just ward the hell out of your jg and ping for your team to counter invade then GGWP.

EDIT : Yesterday (March 26, 2015) I played against a team with lee sin JG and I immediately called the invade. I ended up with 2 kills before the 2 min mark and carried the came from there on.

Picking up and early item 3022 as your 2nd or 3rd item can help you kite them around your jg till your teammates come and clean up. It will also help slow peeps when ganking and keep your HP above dangerous lvls after clearing your jg.

Its also good to have laners with good CC because (other than a 30%-ish aoe slow) she has none.

Note: the earliest Dragon kill i've had with MissFortune was lvl 4 with trailblazer and 1 hp potion. Mind you this was on a bot game but still... it proves she can get an early dragon as good as other junglers.

Imo the hardest part of playing JG MissFortune is finding a team to play with...

You often get kicked multiple times before finding a group that'll let you play this build on team builder.

And in blind pick people would rather dodge then try something new lol.

I'm afraid to ask to play this on draft...

Last time i tried this was back in patch 5.1 and that was before they nerfed the jg camps so imma test this out again soon... May be better or worse for the current meta.

Please at least try this before you dismiss it or at least give evidence why you think otherwise...

no flamers plx <3<3<3

I've played this b4 in both regular draft and Nemesis. Not in ranked unfortunately. Its pretty decent and if your team needs more sustained damage yet doesn't have enough CC for a melee carry jungler pick (for example, you have Maokai top, Orianna mid, Caitlyn ADC, Soraka support, which makes it risky to go WW or Yi) you can definitely use it to good effect.

In ranked I'd play her as an Arpen type champ with MissFortune item 3153 item 3143 item 3723 item 3071 item 3006 item 3035 as her build, probably going health crystal 3rd (after BoRK/Warrior) before LW, finishing up Randuins first or Cleaver first depending on how fed I am. This is so that she can get stronger incrementally and doesnt have to save for a BF sword. In Nemesis draft I got fed incredibly hard and first bought a BF sword, which I don't expect to happen at all in a ranked game. I'd probably replace Randuins with a Maw and zerkers with Tabis if I felt that I could avoid most damage and could output more.
