If you can steal enemy jungle safely and quickly, it is pretty much recommended and in fact encouraged! Denying your opponent resources is a perfectly valid tactic. Just be careful of them coming to gank you and punish you for it because if they catch you, you're probably dead. And yes, Rammus is supah fun and powerful atm.

AD Carries with lots of mobility... Vayne comes to mind but she's 6300 IP and not a ganker. She is however one of the closest things to a superhard carry in LoL when fully itemised.

But for someone who can gank and be annoying just like Rammus, give Udyr a try. He's tanky, does good deeps, has multiple build paths so you can change his style to fit your team, can jungle and is fun zooming around in Bear stance.

For someone mid, Ryze is cheap (450 IP) and very spammy with good CC and naturally builds tanky because he scales of mana and not AP. If you like massing lots of buttons and being tanky, you'll probably like him.

And also, finally, welcome to LoL from HoN! Most of us are pretty nice and won't bite or bark like that random you played against. On an interesting aside note, I recently spoke with MsPudding who's picking up the meta as well, so you're in good company.

Thought so, I figured it was actually a good idea since I had some help at blue and would beat him to wraiths. Thanks for the detailed response and the welcome! I tried Ryze but didn't do too well with him, maybe I'll try him a little more before passing final judgement.

@Terrana -- Thanks! I'll definitely look into Vayne as she looked like a fun carry when I saw her on stream. And, of course, I'll learn how to play Pantheon(although I'm not sure why lol).

late game is really really really intricate IMO. people like to toss shit around about who's a good late game champ vs. a good early game champ ect, and while there is some truth to some of it, a lot of characters' late games are incredibly dependent on the team matchups. for instance, if the opposing team has nasus, they're gonna get buttraped by anivia, 100% of the time. you have a jax? great, I have a malz and a nasus and you can only have 1 QSS, GLHF BRO. if you asked me for top 5 late game champs, I'd have no answer because the question is so much more complex than it sounds.
