I'm not entirely sure why he has less than all of the ranged carries except sivir (who I think has 450 but you know the like 1000 range skill shot nuke kinda makes up for it ) Because his E+Q + auto-attack is such a fast and devastating combo, letting him close the distance and unload on you instantly.. And that's assuming he doesn't launch a smoke-bomb while he's at it to slow your retreat and get another shot in. The synergy of Graves's skills is incredible; a very well thought-out champion, perhaps a bit too much so. Hence the nerfs to range. | ||

Prepatch pheonix udyr with mostly utility spec and movement quints clears full jungle in 3:20, and all the offense masteries suck o him. Tiger udyr is a different story though. Rammus I'm not sure about because just getting spiked shell and going 21 offense might be interesting in the wriggles builds. But juggernaught veteran scars and even mercenary are all really nice when you're going warmogs as well. I'm talking about tiger udyr since i haven't played phoenix in ages, maybe I should try it out, do people still only get 3 points in phoenix as a norm for the early game? I can't not see it justified to run 21 offense, you're like the old udyr which levels faster than solo lanes as long as you have jungle to clear. Skarner is debatable, I'd say it depends on what runes you're running and who your opposing jungler is (as if, the more offensive jungler the more defensive you build skarner). | ||

The synergy of Graves's skills is incredible; a very well thought-out champion, perhaps a bit too much so. Hence the nerfs to range. Last night, I had a hilarious where I (as WW) would suppress a Graves at sub 40% in teamfights, he BAAARELY survives the suppress + Q due to his passive, then proceeds to R+Q+auto me for 80% of my life in his dying breath. Happened 3 times in team fights. If Graves has a Soraka you can forget about trying to kill him in team fights. I find it weird that they're essentially turning graves into a short-range bruiser with huge burst, instead of slightly tuning down his burst and keeping his range untouched. | ||

But if AD/AP have already been picked, it's unlikely that people will swap them, and instead just have the AP take it in the bum anyway. | ||

Skarner is debatable, I'd say it depends on what runes you're running and who your opposing jungler is (as if, the more offensive jungler the more defensive you build skarner). Phoenix udyr maxes R > W > E > Q (3 in Q vs 3 in E is debatable). 21 offense is pointless as phoenix because you clear so freaking fast anyway, and points 10-20 in offense doesn't do much for him. Meanwhile the health, move speed, damage reduction, and Juggernaut are all insanely good for Udyr for the entire game. For almost every other jungler you have a suboptimal rune/mastery set to clear jungle faster, but Udyr is so fast that you can build him normally. EDIT: points 10-20 gives you crit/lethality, lifesteal, and flat armor pen / AP. None of those stats are are particularly good, since you'd rather have attack speed instead. If you plan on using tiger then yes, 21 offense is the way to go, but phoenix is considered stronger right now in jungle. | ||

Not going 21 offense on Phoenixdyr isn't an issue of not needing the speed--ArPen and Crit/Crit damage aren't huge stats for jungling speed anyway, and other 21 offense junglers take them because they're really cost-effective masteries for autoattack DPS later on. Wit's/Phoenix Stance do magic damage so both of those masteries do nothing for him. | ||

What's the 13 in utility for? I was thinking of something like 9/10/9 + 2, like http://thefwcentral.com/lol/#&trees=0-3-0-2-4-0-0-0-1-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-2-2-4-0-0-1-0-1-0-0-0-0-0-0-1-2-0-1-4-0-1-0-0-1-0-0-0-0-0-0 | ||
