Maokai #1 tree, beats rock (but not when rock goes sololane, he gets more fed, dat bastard ).
I don't know if you could call him original tho, what with TOO making him more and more well known. But he's got some tricks with his W (and saplings to give him vision), free wards, good clear times, insane ganks, huge utility and peeling, he allows you to troll Karthus, Cait, Zilean, etc. with his ult, and is all around badass standing in the middle of the enemy team rooting Tryndamere and slowing Nasus, all while never dying and protecting his carry from half a screen away.

Energy Regen/lvl on yellows is decent, rest is meh.
Edit: decent as in best in slot yellows for Kennen in my opinion.
currently rooting for myself.

Hey I'm just getting into jungling, I have pretty good game sense so I do well.

I want to pick up a decent hero for jungle, but not a boring one, someone preferably a bit rare to see, I can deal with not being tier 1. I don't really want to play lee because everyone does, skarner is boring, nocturne is too common too.

Basically whats a cool char that CAN jungle ok, I like weird stuff.


Lee Skarner and Udyr are probably the top 3 junglers in the game atm.

If you want someone not jungled that often, try Trundle. Decent clear time thanks to Contaminate and he has pretty strong ganks.

Malphite can jungle, but his ganks are not strong until lvl 6. Pretty mediocre prior to that.

Then theres jungle Trynd. Trynd is pretty stupid atm. Never jungled him, but I think the only thing that doesn't make him top tier is his clear time. Not too sure on that though.

Really? I've been playing Maokai all this week and I think his pre-lvl 6 ganks are infinitely stronger than Skarner and I think he's a stronger ganker than Udyr as well pretty consistently.

of course his pre 6 ganks are better, his ganking tool is not his ult.

Once skarner hits 6 if he comes to gank your lane and has flash chances are you dead

I know, that's what I mean. His ganks definitely are not weak before lvl 6 like he's saying.

Derp he said malphite xD

Well TSM lost that one. I don't get why they focused Swain on that last fight tho (edit: the one at baron), they hadn't the nuking power to prevent his ult from kicking in and we hurting them less than Nid/Vayne anyway.

Also, 1000th post and vulture. I'm planting more saplings than spider mines these days tho.

I must be playing Kennen wrong in terms of runes.

I run mage pen reds, armor yellows (what people question me over) MR glyphs and AP Quints. I don't get why energy regen is really needed. You never run out of energy unless you have to blow your ghost without running into an enemy. Maxed Q will slowly deplete energy if you constantly use it, but I've found that it doesn't hurt your energy significantly.

In short, I love making Kennen even tankier.

If I'm the only form of initiating sure.

Otherwise someone else should do it for me (till Zhonya's anyway).

One question about matchmaking:

I very recently picked up LoL (around finals week, beginning of Dec but didn't play much until ~Dec 17th). Around level 15 or so atm. I have a pretty good w/l ratio when it comes to regular normal games, but when I play with my friends, similar or slightly lower level than me, we lose a LOT more. My friend usually does alright playing solo as well. Are we just bad when we play with each other, or is there something that makes the MM system pair us with harder opponents?

Probably just the fact that you're getting matched up with other (mostly) premade teams, who may have smurfs or just better teamwork.

By some of you mean me, cuz I'm 99% sure no one else has ever tried it.

I run a shaco like runepage- 10 armor pen on red, the rest ad, ad quints, armor yellows, aspeed blues. Cloth 5, (yet to test boots)

Wild card at 1, then alternate between wild card and e. Wolves- blue standard path, using red card for the aoe deeps. Then I go wriggles, ghostblade, then it depends. If you are stupid fed you can go for standard bf items, or you can go on hit with a sotd and wits.

One of the Chinese teams has run it and I did jungle TF back before his ult nerf in old jungle. He was even stronger then.

It was comforting to see Regi run into the same issues with LB that I've been having after playing her this past week.

1. She doesn't have constant damage throughput like a Cassio or Karthus.

2. All her stuff is single target, more or less.

If you saw, he spent a lot of time waiting or hovering around the perimeter because either his spells were on CD or he had to wait for a good target. The worst thing I've experienced on LB is where you go in, do your full combo, and they walk away. You're 100% useless now, and they're still alive.

But, the upside is that if a squishy exposes themselves, they die in like half a second.

Kerp does jungle TF sometimes actually and he's pretty good with him o_o His ganks are also quite strong and he jungles pretty fast after a while.

Jungle AD Janna. Your shield gives you a stupid amount of bonus AD, and you have so much utility that ganks are effective. AND you have bonus movement speed.


Janna is shitty as fuck in the jungle. Can't clear camps fast ever.

Karthus/Karma; Karthus gank with wall, Karma gank with mantra-w; both clear pretty fast


What would be the setup for Karma jungle?
