EPTI think trying to work in some CDR blues would be nice honestly, I've been having trouble finding CDR in my build. Usually doing cinderhulk -> boot -> RG -> randuin + banshee -> thornmail/ abyssal.

 I think there was an argument about how locket wasn't that great of a buy either... I guess it'd be okay in situations where you don't have a top or support with it, but it's a lot of gold for less stats for yourself. The feeling of R then 1 RG 2 Randuin 3 Locket is pretty fun though. Triple actives ftw. | ||

I also don't really see the appeal of FH myself, except vs full AD teams. | ||

Plus it gives a little more hp/ MR. The holder is only down 50HP and 15MR. Even if we take out the scaling per level, the base shield from locket along makes up for the HP loss. Even if we ignore the health regen on the aura, since it isn't a "combat stat", each aura'd ally gains 400g worth of MR and 134-614g of "health" from the shield upon activation. Surely that is more valuable in a team fighting scenario than a more selfish item to try and block cc, which will most likely be aimed elsewhere, that can be negated easily by random poke. | ||

Tank junglers love cost efficiency. As to RG + Randuin/FH, if you are getting RG your armor item should probably be thornmail. I prefer FH on Sej, so I don't get RG at all. Its an awesome item, but I don't think sej needs help engaging. I'd much rather get Locket+FH and let Top get RG if they need it. If you think about it, top is more likely to 1v1 and sej is more likely to not fight unless grouped, so sej gets the aura items which let's top go banshee/RG/Thornmail to 1v1. | ||

I play Sejuani mostly as an initiator, so if I get a good R off, I Q in while they are frozen and sit on them with W/cinderhulk damage. Blocking the CC (from their non frozen support or whatever) so you can do that seems pretty valuable to me. If you can get in their faces and make them scatter like bowling pins, I think that's worth more than a 200hp shield for a couple of your team members. Though I guess Locket would be nice if you're behind. But you should never be behind as Sejuani.  | ||

Well, there's the theory that if you're getting bonus health, you should be valuing resistances over more health. Kind of like how the best Rammus build isn't just 6 armor items, but instead a mixture with an extra emphasis on flat health. | ||

Do you still get Face after Lock/FH? If so, do you overcap CDR or just not bring any from runes and masteries? | ||

But I didn't get face of the mountain on sej, or if I did it was as 6th item. I went cinderhulk>locket/randuin, then frozen heart, then some 6th item which can legitimately be almost anything. If you're against 3-4 AP you can skip randuin but the item choices to replace it with ate all sub par. | ||

That said, Sej has been banned in my last 80ranked games, so idk. | ||
