Also I've been playing this game since beta as primarily a jungle main and I considered amumu as my second or third main jungler throughout

The point where I was top 200 on NA ladder I mained amumu and chogath


Sure you're a good amumu player but the tactic you suggested is ONLY not viable since the changes introduced with the s2 jungle which you haven't played much of him with and weren't your best days cause you were ranked top 200 sometime in season one right?

No, I only started doing level 2 blue gank about 3 months ago after being told by a diamond friend about ap max q mummy.

He was literally just like "yeah I just go eq and gank lv 2 with blue buff" "its super strong" "then you just max q and burst the shit out of them" "nobody expects it"

Part of the reason for that is blue buff used to be strong as shit so you couldn't kill it very easily with e at lv 1 and had to take w which crippled your gank power

Anyway for purposes of a guide W first or E first isn't a big deal. W is generally more standard and easier for new Amumu players (which, after all, is the purpose of a guide). A few more comments about the guide:

-One of the most common mistakes I see with new junglers is that they initiate with their gap closer when it's not necessary. I'm sure we've all seen the Lee that camps a lane for 30 secs, finally goes in, and misses his Q and leaves. Probably worth commenting that you want to just walk up from behind and just beat up the guy whenever possible, and bandage when they blow their flash/escape.

-I know it's obvious, but the reason Amumu is feared is because of his ult. I would just make that more clear in the guide. It's one of the most game changing abilities in the game, and also has one of the longest cds.


+ Show Spoiler +
Small grammar nitpick - "CCing the enemy isn't very useful when only you *and the* support are still alive."

W or E first is only really relevant if you want to gank at level 2, for which W is completely useless. W is from what I hear about 2-3 seconds faster on the buff, though.

You run ap quints and blues with that set up?
i tried that with 2x dolans rings into sorcs and abyssal and it has its moments but I find it generally impractical because you get raped by poke. It's still hilarious to like 1v2 their ad and ap carry when they try to gank you and shit if you're doing well though

Flat AP Quints, mpen reds, armor yellows, scaling ap blues, 0/21/9
eqewer or eweqer or if i think i'm gonna be ganking more than farming max q after 2 points in e
standard boots 3 -> philo/hog -> aegis with oracles when i feel like i can start having it pay off and merc/sorc when i feel like I need it
diverge in build from here, usually just finish randuins/shurel but sometimes FoN/Banshees vs heavy AP and if I'm snowballing Sunfire/Abyssal
