Yeah, some games you're just going to lose =(. The worst part was that our Alistar was talking shit. At least it was only -6 because he was like 1600 and I'm 2400.. 38 minute queues never end well. you gotta duo queue with people who are like ~1366 elo to lower queue times.
OMG I'M 1366 ELO. WHATTTT

Season 2, Dominion, Spectator and Replays all lined up for Sept/Oct pretty much I believe. They might want to get other servers (like Korea) up before then. Not sure.
Spectator and Replays are kinda already in the client anyway.

China server and Taiwan server just went up 100%, Korean server coming soon.
Replays are later I believe. Spectator, Dominion, S2, and more lined up for this fall.

Copy/paste from page 21
Cloth + 5 pots opening
Flash/Smite
0/21/9 Masteries
Armor Pen Marks Flat Armor Seals Attack Speed Blues Flat Attack Damage Quints
Skill order
QEQWQR
R>Q>E>W
Like 3:55 clear, gets real dicey on blue, without a leash I seem to always be left with like 50 hp, but its pretty easy from there. Open to suggestions. I think i could shave a few sec off that time.

I bet aspd reds/quints would make a faster time, q spam with passive and whatnot. Definitely going to be more damage than the flat damage/arpen.

Get someone with an AoE spell to leash wolves and clear wolves before doing blue. Save yourself 15-ish seconds.

I had a game at 1500 with people so set on their roles, "I NEED TO JUNGLE", "I NEED TO ROAM", and "WE NEED TO DUO LANE" that we seriously had no top lane. I got sent mid and NO ONE WOULD TAKE TOP.
"Holycrap cow we need someone to cover top!" "NO I"M ROAMING"
"Uhhhh ok can one of you guys bot go top please?" "No we duo'd and want to lane together"
"Uhhhh ok trynd can you please cover top??" "NO I"M RUNED FOR THE JUNGLE"

Some1 was jungling for our side without smite, so I just 2v1'd top and raped both...

lol, I do a leashed golem start on WK, and can get red buff alright, but his hp plummets, even after wriggles (AD gain is too low so he actually doesn't even sustain with wriggles). That makes his mid-game really weak because he needs some tanky items but also needs damage to do anything. I tried fucking around with non-wriggles openings but I couldn't get them to work either. Also tried changing around runes and masteries and juggled them around but I still couldn't solve his reliance on health potions.
EQEWER, R > E > Q > W 0 21 9 My page 3 for Runes Smite/Flash Cloth + 3 hp pots
Some things to realize about WuKong: - His early jungle is atrocious. Up until you have Madred's and a higher level E for additional AS, WuKong is really subpar. - Ganking is definitely WK's strength. Solid gap closer and he shreds armor. If lane allies have CC, this is even better. - The nice thing about WK is that he can gank and fail but never actually get counter ganked thanks to his W. You just have to ward the Rivers/Tribush to know when the best timing to W is.
Starting route is Golems, Wraiths, Wolves for fast level 3. This is the safe route and I typically only have to use 1, maybe 2 pots at most. If enemy team doesn't have redonkulous early game presence (like Garen + Blitz), I try to go Wraith steal, Wolves, Wraith, Golem. I back, Boots, 1 ward, and a few more pots then try to gank a lane (usually top, hinder top solo means more than bot imo, which is usually just a farmfest). Like I said before, obviously chose a lane where your allies have CC. You have great burst potential, just no way to slow/stop enemies from running or Flashing away. If enemies do Flash away, consider it a success but try again if possible. Gap closing skill is awsum, so why not? If either solo lanes need you to hold lane while they base, this helps you immensely. Mostly because it's free gold/exp at no cost to your health obv. At level 5, you can successful Blue, with or without Madred's but use Smite here. Base, Madred's, then get Red. Gank some more. Level 6 ganks are his strongest because he suddenly has an AOE Knockup. Makes tower diving some ezpz stuff.
Item build I just go the standard Tanky DPS: Cloth, Boots, Madred's, Wriggles, Merc, Phage, Zeal, Trinity. From here, most of the time it's just more survivability, Banshee's + Atma's. If I do decide to go balls out AD, Ghostblade would be my pick. Just so much synergy between WuKong's Kit and GB stats/active.
And to defend myself from Dizzle's douchebag comments, WuKong is definitely a champion that is capable of Jungling but not viable. I don't solo lane, so I try shit like this out when I have time. I would obviously never pick Jungle WK over say Noc in a serious game. He's just fun to play. Lastly, for the record, we didn't lose the game because I played WK. I ganked fine and stay up in levels with enemy jungle. Dizzle also went some trololol build cause he didn't take the game seriously and our team fights were just not there. WK is fine in jungle.
Edit: I have been considering AD Quints but never actually tried them because I'm too hesitant (read: lazy) to change my rune pages.

On a really dumb losing streak. Would calm down by playing vs. AI, but slightly afraid I might loose that too, given how shit my last 5 games have been.
