BTW, as a tip, never tower dive with WW with Infinite Duress. Run in use Q, then R, then Q again as it will cool down while R is casting. That gives greater damage output and greater life steal as well.
Ok so I need twitch help, he's fun to play but I am consistently getting low damage numbers. I feel like building to IE first item is not my best option. Since I know people were talking about twitch last thread a good amount can I get some build suggestions for him?
Wriggle's Lantern, Last whisper (at this point you should be very damaging) IE.
Attack speed runes help lot's.
Hmm may have to look into this, I have built wriggles and last whisper fairly often as him. For the AS runes would it be better to build ArP Reds AS Yellows and Blues? or Cooldown Blues? I run HP quints on all champions until I pick up XP or ArP quints.

that kinda assumes they're stupid enough to just sit at their tower while they see you moseying on up to Q them though
Every ability pretty much fills your shield completely, and you can tower dive pretty much anyone you want as long as there are a few creeps around.
Everyone either ignores you, or you just refill your shield by staggering your abilities and using hit and run tactics.
Farm freely because everyone seems to say that ignoring mordekaiser is the way to fight him
But people do it, so you can get tons of creep kills, become invincible and just use your ult on low champions, ideally auto attackers/phys carries and just take down everyone and everything by hitting your face on the keyboard.

Ranked draft, we end up with Udyr (me), Kennen and Sion on the same team.
You got three guesses as of what the enemy didn't do, and the first two doesn't count. If you need a clue, that game was a clear victory for us.
Also I know we must not talk about him, but in the event that one of your teammate is deluded enough to pick the tank with no CC whatsoever, please, PLEASE make sure you compensate for his design defects. It was just so sad to see a team without a single stun.
Also ALSO!
BAGEL!
I need your Udyr insight, the very best you got to offer on the subject. Stance dancing is awesome, chain stunning is awesome, being an unkillable jackass is awesome too, but this is not enough for me - I must become awesomer at Udyr, and one day surpass you at the master.
Okay, I just PM'd Zen to get my name listed. Anybody playing now?
After a brilliant career with Tristana I saved up for three days and bought Morgana. I'm learning her and getting decent, but playing with pubs is random at best and they don't really work together.

It provides Damage over Time (magic damage) and Slow debuffs when you auto attack
We just about got shut out in this game.
Please guys, don't play Jax. He really does suck now.
Unless the champion you're facing is an auto attacker, you will likely lose.
If they are a ranged mage character, you're in trouble, and if they have a stun at all, forget it.
AP Jax all day.
Actually, haven't played him in a long time. I'm gonna start again with the new patch. Malady looks great.

Twitch doesn't need a whole lot of cooldown reduction, so a Ghostblade should be good enough for your CDR purposes.
If you can spare the IP for it AS runes will probably be worth it, to the point where you won't really need AS gear at all (And they would be decent for jungling on certain heroes too!)

Really can't let this shit go, huh?
Well you see I hear passive aggressive is the best kind of aggressive!
I was sucking with Taric for like a week and last night I went back to my rushing nastor's tooth build. Much more like it, I don't know what I was thinking with getting chalice first. I'm literally carrying, tanking, and supporting in every game now. People have this huge misconception that they can kill Taric.

Wait, you mean the Tristana hit and run I pulled on him last day was my imagination playing tricks on me?
Daaaaaamn. Explain why the whining Twisted Fate thought my lane didn't score a single kill and fed all day. (true story)

You can't kill Taric, you can only piss him off.
And if you DO strike him down, he will only arise more outrageous than you could possibly imagine.
WW is really good mid game, so that's when you need to get a bunch of kills. I had to stop playing him in ranked because my team could never get things done before level 18 and it was frustrating to be like 10-2 and suck.

I'm curious to read some different Amumu builds/ideas. I never really differentiate from my base guideline so much, sans like pots or more MR against certain squads.

start with cloth armor + 5 pots
Then get chalice, sunfire capes, and boots of swiftness in some order.
There aren't really any other builds unless you just wanna feed the other team.
I usually start with Regrowth Pendant build it into Prospector's Stone then make Tabi Boots & Banshee's Veil, then do the Sunfires. It's been working for me so far, but I'll try your way a couple times.
I was more curious about Masteries/Runes that people prefer.

Batmantis you sure as everloving fuck do not need dodge seals, nor is it end-all-be-all that you build straight sunfire capes
And if you're the jungling amumu you own your blue so you probably wouldn't be buying a chalice
establish fear in the enemy squishy early, and then at 6 just flashfeast that shit even diving and walk away with your 1200 health giggling to yourself, gain 3 levels on him while getting 3 kills on him because towers don't scare the motherfucking chogath
then have bottom lane disconnect and lose!

Since I am a poor person I run Amumu with my usual caster page - Mpen reds, mana regen/lvl yellows, cooldown blues, HP quints. Start with cloth armor + 5 HP pot, then build your way to an Aegis of the Legion and either boots of swiftness or mercury treads if the enemy CC is insane. After that, adjust to the enemy: DPS giving you trouble? Thornmail/Randuin's Omen. CC being too troublesome or magic damage is what you hate? Banshee's Veil (Quicksilver Sash in case of Malzahar). TOO MUCH magic burst? Force of Nature. And so on and so on. Sunfire Capes are a good bonus to have too, but they are not your priority until a good while.
Unless you are of a very low summoner level, don't get a Chalice of Harmony.
edit to answer zen: if you are not the jungling amumu you need to reevaluate your life.
I jungle really quickly by going wraiths (1st point in E, smite the big one) -> swing by mid lane for level 2 (it takes like half a wave, put a pt in W) -> golem (smite comes back up for the kill) -> wolves -> wraiths -> small golem, then I port, buy boots and another couple potions, come back grab red buff and gank a lane (level 4 you grab bandage toss, don't waste your time if a lane isn't overextended). You can keep level with your solo like this. I then buy a catalyst and jungle forever.
You can then grab a Heart of Gold, Catalyst-> RoA, HoG -> Randouins. The AP you will end up getting outweighs the damage of one sunfire, and you can farm more reliably using your E rather than sunfires damage. It gets rid of alot of mana problems as well allowed you to cede golem to a carry.
Pop randouins after your ultimate to make all the scattering clowns run away in slow motion. (the best part). After that you can add more specialized tank gear or just grab sunfires if you are a boring boring man.
I do it with 5 hp pots and cloth armor, 0/21/9 and terrible runes, so someone with health quints could probably hit redbuff before porting. I also know that with the right runes you can do this with a Doran's Shield and just one hp pot which is awesome.
edit: I forgot to mention you shouldn't play Amumu because he's a super OP doucher wrapped in dirty napkins.

If I'm in Normal, I run mpen reds, 6 or 7 flat armor yellows and the rest mp5/level, flat cooldown blues, HP quints. If I'm in Ranked, I don't have a page setup for magic using junglers, so I have to use apen reds (since I don't ever plan on actually getting to pick him).
Even with that and having blue, I still like Chalice on him, since it lets you run Despair nonstop and still have mana at the end of the battle for clutch Bandages to intercept runners.
I'm not comfortable doing the whole jungle thing. I'm only level 22 right now (which is closer to 30 than say level 12) but I also do not have any worthwhile Tier 3 runes yet either. I also do not really plan on playing ranked.

Which HP Quint? I assume the one based on level?
Flat. The only thing I recommend per level on is mana regen, since it breaks even at level 4. Everything else I recommend flat Armor, flat Magic Resist, flat HP Quints.

What the fuck is wrong with Riot? I just got put on a team with a 22-26-29-30 vs 21-22-30-30-30
Of course their level 30 Twitch and Kennen rape my team's functionally retarded 20 somethings and we are decimated. Good thing I know people's levels on character select so I can choose characters appropriately.
Wait you can tell people's lvls at champion select?
Also, playing as Panth against free-to-play Panths just makes me
so happy
edit: Also, Myrmidon Pantheon worth getting? The champion portrait is so baller but in-game it's just an ugly-ish yellow instead of gloriously oiled gold.
