What have people been building on him S3? I know XJ9 rushes Fist but he also gets like more CS than his laners
So far I've been going machete x5 -> boots -> stone -> mercs -> kindle -> and then I'm unsatisfied with where I want to go from there
I know for sure that I want to pick up Visage since it got crazy buffed and is now probably the best MR item in the game for Hecarim.
Sunfire is an OK choice since Hecarim does a lot of teamfight AoE damage, but the stats are pretty meh tbh. Fist is insanely good but also costs a million dollars. I've been trying kindle -> randuins -> SV because after you initiate, you actually do piss poor damage to carries (unlike say Mundo) and I feel like its better to go for peeling/disruption items (hence permaslow fist being so good)
Tank stone upgrade feels superior to sunfire really, but then you double does on tenacity. The reason why I want mercs is because T2 boots is OP and I'm not going to buy any MR for a long time so if I go tabi tank stone there's a big MR hole.

This is very important to note. Fist is a very expensive item that barely gives any tanky stats. You can only get it if you're really fed or are tanky already and need damage. I like SV for MR, Sunfire for armor. I think Spirit of the Lizard Elder is a great item for damage later on. Otherwise all the normal tanky items are fine on Hecarim. He's as strong as ever with his buff and the new jungle.

Sheen is so core on hecarim that it's a really easy fit, though.

Rushing fist is fine, hell 5hit' build on the previous page is Sheen>Glacial which is the exact same as what you do now but you get the go to fist after.
Usually go
Machete + Pots
Boots + Spirit Stone
Sheen
Merc Treads
Glacial
Fist
Spirit Visage
Sunfire
Elder Lizard
Randuins/Frozen/Whatever you feel like/need.

you cant rush fist if youre not fed or have same farm as your solos, you would be really squishy and die after you initiate.

Merc treads + Glacial is not that squishy though, sure you don't have as much as if you rushed a straight tanky build but still.

you dont have the luxury of not rushing tank in real games
|
Been getting a giants belt before grabbing Fist, youre already hella tanky with your W, you can get away with fist since it builds from glacial aslong as you have some HP.
|
for the reasons stated ive taken to playing him top and found that he actually crushes pretty hard up in there in a lot of matchups. as soon as you get fist you're a god.
|
So far been going
Machete + 5 -> Spirit Stone -> Boots -> Glacial -> Boots2 in here somewhere -> Sunfire -> Fist -> Visage
seems like its hella strong. you could just straight Sunfire after Glacial but idk up to choice i guess

i've been playing alot of hecarim top lane lately and he's such a beast. fist + kindle gem + brutalizer (depends if you're fed) makes him an unstoppable beast. my games never go long enough but is last whisper worth it on him?

Wouldn't Rand be the better option instead of sunfire?

What kind of runes are people running on Hecarim now? I saw a person on youtube going AD reds, AR yellows, Mr/lvl blues and MS quints, and have been using that for a while. I do find that I end up pretty low after a clear though, so I was wondering if anyone else has come up with anything.

I've been running AD/Armor/flat CDR/Armpen (or maybe it's armpen on reds and AD on quints? I forget which one is more efficient). Flat CDR does noticeably speed up the first clear over MR blues.

As an MR item do people prefer Maw or SV?

SV out of the jungle. I haven't played Hec top but I suspect it would still be SV. It provides more MR and Hec's W is super op since in the initiation, you can nearly nullify a huge chunk of opponent's burst if your team has any burst themselves
Even if you had to build a Hexdrinker for lane, if you still need more MR, SV gives you more eHP vs magic than the upgrade to Maw.

Why do you guys build gauntlet instead of triforce?
