AD vs. ArP runes,

Devourer vs. Warrior

Any special tips while playing them?

Apparently their W scales off of 50% attack speed or something.

Always stay moving.

Always choose blue or red smite, never purple.

It is possible to clear 2 jungle camps with only 1 activation of W.

Know how your ultimate works. Cast it on the closest ally to where you want to make your stand. Try not to use it on your front line as the enemy champions can exploit your ultimate for a free heal.

You can hop walls with your q. Practice your positioning for doing this.

Don't be greedy with your ganking.

You have to be aggressive early in order to get your stacks. Buy wards to ensure successful escape routes on your invades.

For jungle items buy either of these two items:item 3715 item 3706 Blue is safer. Buy this if you plan on banking heavily or if you foresee a lot of interactions with the enemy jungler and you don't think you can outright kill him in a duel). Buy red if the enemy team is tanky or if you plan on dueling the enemy jungler and killing him.

Enchantments are as follows: item 3718 item 3707 Going devourer is incredibly risky and 90% of the time is the worse choice the reason being is that your first item is often a Bork and you will shoot really fast but will only be dealing a paltry 25 additional AD damage. If you get devourer buy triforce first. You will need the sheen procs to improve your clear times.warrior is better because the extra ad and the armor penetration. It meshes better with your Bork item.

Tell your team what your ult does before the game starts - remember, it affects things like baron, dragon, and minions, but not the turret.

You can't mark while fighting a champion, but you can mark before and have the mark 'complete' during the fight to keep them from getting any warning about upcoming ganks.

All of your abilities are semi-targeted projectiles - yes, even your w (which will get stuck on a wall if it can't go around it). Your e is two projectiles, first the slow + debuff and then the damage, which means yasuo can and will block everything you do and destroy you.

For jungling you probably want 5.something armor pen runes (minimum amount for the least armored jungle monsters, denies 'wasted' stats) then attack speed. Get CDR in masteries. For laning, all armorpen, since you're going to be getting attack speed in masteries and ad from your item.

W is 50% bonus attack speed, not 50% total or base.

A stack is roughly equal to 2 missed jungle camps if you're grabbing it from the enemy jungle. If you lose more farm than that in the process of running to it, then you shouldn't bother. Especially if it's somewhere unsafe. Mobi boots can help with this, and ganking.

Don't suicide for stacks (with some exceptions). Sacrificing a teammate (if they're a support and already worth no gold + levels behind) might be worth it for a kill stack. If they're a carry ... no.

Avoid killing scuttle early. If your opponent is clearing fast, it's more likely to pop the mark onto them.

What do you build after Tri Force? Last Whisper? Zeal item?
