MVP did this vs Sword kinda, took Ziggs mid with Clarity to keep lane shoved to turret and counterjungled Amumu at red with Lee+Darius, they still died in teamfights though lol

Lee Sin as purple counterjungling enemy at red is easy bro, don't need a ward just manage cooldowns carefully and Q to dragon to escape

The point of the strat is to snowball bot not to counterjungle.

There's no such thing as a hard counter in LoL because it's a 5v5 game.

There are hard counters in lane where the matchup is just so one-sided that even with 24/7 babysitting you still lose the lane (and get farmed for kills without the 24/7 help), but thinking things like Maokai "hard counters" Amumu in a team fight because he can slightly reduce incoming damage is just so outlandish that you have to wonder how all the logical gaps were ignored.

HSGG is playing so good this game. This is why DLIFT looks really good sometimes, because they send like 3 to defend this nonsense.

Hsgg rarely plays this good. It's more a reason why you don't let Hsgg play nid.

Lol he just did, he gave his reasoning for why he doesn't think Mao "hard-counters" Amumu, that was the point of this discussion.

ive never looked some one up on lolking that had like below 60% winrate with nid. shes pretty clearly strong right now with any build. her AP wrecks, her bruiser wrecks, doesnt even fucking matter. Anyone that can lane against elise top is a good champion and nid is one.

and Maokai isnt a "hard counter" but he is definitely a good pick against amumu. He counterganks amumu very well, he puts pressure before amumu can even dream of it, and pretty much "beats" amumu at every stage of the game.

Man, can't help but notice some irrational kitty hatred. yyyyyyy

HSGG balls of steel. Only damage item is the upgrade to sheen. Murder the shit out of Khazix or whoever else showed up to deal with him - literally nobody on TD could stop him, and it's nidalee - gl collapsing - he escaped running right through 4 of them at one point and still had >50% HP because there isn't much in the way of non-skillshot lockdown CC on that TD composition.

And he's right, outside of early ganks, amumu shits on maokai. Once you reach lvl 6 amumu shouldn't ever die to maokai in a 1v1 and in any team fight will provide far more utility and damage.

True, but CLG is always creating space for him somehow. That is what I meant.

What do you guys think of renekton+nami bot lane? Me and a friend theorycrafted for abit (would try it but I don't have renek yet) and it seems like any time the opponent goes for a creep renek just jumps in and uses Q auto W then jumps out for a massive nuke if nami puts her on-hit bonus on him. Ebb and flow heals and provides a short speed boost to minimize the harass renek takes when he goes for a creep. If you want to kill someone just do the combo but make sure W is enraged and just follow renek's stun (1.75 seconds) with nami's (1.25 seconds) and save her on-hit slow for when the target comes down and tries to run. Only weakness I see is a lane that can easily freeze the wave in front of their tower with a strong jungler and stop you from farming or graves just killing you with his Q if you don't stun before he does it.
