Amumu is fair because he's easy as hell to counterjungle. Almost all of the good matches can steal his camps without much competition and he's really weak early. If you kick the sad mummy when he's weak you can keep him down. Also, he's really a walking ultimate - after his ultimate you can sort of ignore him moreso than other champions.
No I know. I was referring to him in lane. Laning solo top gives him the safe farm that he desperately needs, and the longer the lane goes on the harder it is to keep him away from the creeps. He really ends up feeling like a singed, expect with stuns.
My build has been:
Sorc Shoes, Sunfire cape, Unholy Grail, Force of Nature, sometimes then Thornmail, Shurelias, or just whatever we need at that point.

How does amumu beat jax in lane? This boogles me. Amumu is not that good in lane. Maybe it's something people haven't caught on to? Because Jax is borderline OP. Singed is not doing that well in lane right now because of agressive bruisers like Riven or Olaf. Also Vlad and Kennen also beat them.
AD carries don't need a lot of that stuff. They get better movement speed, attack speed and crit chance from Phantom Dancer. They aren't using their abilities after laning phase because auto attacks will hit harder. Manamune also is bad on ad carries. It takes too long for it to give you it's max ad. You also aren't going to win any trades if you have Triforce while the person you are laning against has Infinity Edge. You are honestly hurting your team if you grab Triforce on Ez. I have seen this far too often.

Against a competent player, Amumu generally has no chance of surviving top lane. He's really weak early, and lots of players can just take advantage of that and get farmed off him. He might be strong late game, but a good top lane opponent would never let him get to that point.

Jax aint op. People are just bandwaging what one guy at high elo has said which is funny because ever since his remake people were claiming how up jax is.
AD carries don't need a lot of that stuff. They get better movement speed, attack speed and crit chance from Phantom Dancer. They aren't using their abilities after laning phase because auto attacks will hit harder. Manamune also is bad on ad carries. It takes too long for it to give you it's max ad.

I have seen this far too often.
Actually, you probably will win trades if you have Trinity Force while your opponent has IE. Ezreal is still going to spam his Q every time it's up, and that translates into a really hard Sheen proc. It also translates into more attack speed thanks to his passive. As for Manamune being bad, as long as you have more than 1500~ish mana before you buy the item you're getting a pretty good return on your damage. It scales well into the late game on champions like Ezreal, so it's definitely something to consider (just not first).
AD carry gets a lot of hype about being 'all about the autoattacks' but the point where autoattacks become stronger than abilities isn't until pretty late in the game. This is really because abilities can easily get weaved into autoatttacks until you reach about 2.0 attack speed.
Jax aint op. People are just bandwaging what one guy at high elo has said which is funny because ever since his remake people were claiming how up jax is.
He beats a significant amount of champions early game, scales really well with damage items, and beats a significant amount of champions late game. He might not be OP, but he is really strong right now.

I'm only at 1300 elo so take it with a grain of salt, and I know that olaf would piss all over me with his e.
I've been starting with a cloth armor and 5 hp pots. From there I ruse chalice -> HoG -> Sorc shoes -> Sunfire. Mostly the focus in lane is not dying until you get to the point where you can stop caring about their harass. Jax's damage was generally meh until lvl 6 (I could keep myself in lane by sticking close to the tower). After six i had most of my defensive items and he got too reckless and dove me with their ahri (Our kass showed up after i had exhausted jax and ulted to wittle them both down). Well played, he'd probably would have messed me up, but i actually was keeping pretty even in farm, and generally speaking, so long as i didn't feed jax, I would still be good late game, and amumu is tanky enough that early harass won't per se make him feed, just means he has to tower hug, which suits the jungler's purposes just fine.

Just gotta stay back really far. TF can last hit without ever really straying from turret.
Plus, if he's overextending that hard, your jungler should usually come gank him.
Well it's a little awkward just because of how the aoe works (you generally can't 1-shot the ranged creeps with Q until you get needlessly large rod) but yeah if you have blue you can do it. His aa range is really short though =/. I think in the future now that I know I'm toast post level 6 I'll just call for a gank.

I've been playing Ryze alot lately, and every single game I play I end up fed and carrying the team. Could just be luck, but he just seems to dominate. I feel that one of Ryze's biggest weaknesses is in his early game, I find that I spend most of my time avoiding conflict altogether until I get my Tear of the Goddess. And even when I get my Tear I find that I can't 1v1 easily until level 6, even with ignite.
Though I don't really know how that would help out a TF, since he can't really 1v1 either. His best attributes in lane are his poke and wave clearing.
So... I don't stomp often but when i do...
I should point out I was playing with a couple of people below my level both on my team and against.
Very nice, that's some serious domination for only 25 mins in.
I really should remember to take a screenshot of the post-game screen. I've been seriously wrecking face today with Ryze, all I have is my match history to screenshot.
Apart from my terrible Ashe game(there's a reason I don't play AD ranged often), i'd say I did pretty well today overall.
so yeah, just learned today that my Elo decayed by 10. Had to win a game just to get it back to where it was last time. I went 0/2/25 as Janna and our Tristana went 15/1/5 and had two triple kills and a pentakill.
GG
edit: and to keep up discussions. I really hate how I'm always forced to play support. Whenever I play ranked I am almost always 4th or 5th pick on our team - and by that time the jungle and solo lanes have already claimed their pick.

I had one ranked game where I was fourth pick and our last pick started by saying 'i'll fill.' Then I said 'i'll fill also'. Ten seconds later last pick says 'hey i'll jungle can you get me skarner,' and first pick gets him skarner and asks for a top (I don't think they were duo'd). I decided not to be a dick and take first pick's top lane champ, but it was pretty infuriating. Never saying that I'll fill again.

Triple trades are always weird. So much can go wrong on them, I remember I once played Soraka with AD runes, that wasn't fun.
~~~
Game two; my team actually let me play top despite being 4th pick. I got to play Darius vs Jarvan and I completely man moded all over him. I actually thought that we were going to lose the game because our Lee Sin crashed out of the game at 20 seconds in, but he came back and we rocked. I had a twenty minute Bloodthirster and Guardian Angel, it was glorious.

I got a new GFX card and I'm testing things out. So far they seem alright. No guarantees when the stream will be up, but I'll be on and off throughout the next few nights. If anyone has any pointers or tips, they should let me know.
Wicked Blades (Passive) - Draven's Critical Strikes deal bonus physical damage over time. Spinning Axe also causes this effect even if it does not Critically Strike.
Spinning Axe - Draven's next attack will deal bonus physical damage. This axe will ricochet off the target high up into the air. If Draven catches it, he automatically readies another Spinning Axe. Draven can have two Spinning Axes at once.
Blood Rush - Draven gains increased Movement Speed and Attack Speed. The Movement Speed bonus decreases rapidly over its duration. Catching a Spinning Axe will refresh the cooldown of Blood Rush.
Stand Aside - Draven deals physical damage by throwing his axes, knocking aside and slowing his targets.
Whirling Death (Ultimate) - Draven hurls two massive axes dealing physical damage to each unit struck. Whirling Death slowly reverses direction and returns to Draven after striking an enemy champion. Draven may also activate this ability while the axes are in the flight to cause it to return early. Deals less damage for each unit it hits and resets when the axes reverse direction.

I just played a few fun games with Treebeard. Darius carrying all the way. I even got a delayed pentakill with him near the end (double kill, timed out by 1 second, then a triple kill).
With 5 hemorrhage stacks you need about 220~ish bonus damage to deal 1k true damage with your ultimate at level 16. I reached that, and got a little extra. The dunking was glorious.

So i ran into a bug a while ago before the Darius Patch, basically Mordes Spinning Shrapnel thingy animation would never stop and when you used it again it would apply it a second time and so on, so by late game this morde was a cluster of shrapnel that caused delay's like hell it was hilarious but also very annoying... havent played against morde recently so i dont know if it got patched... was this something on my end only or where you guys also experiencing this pre Darius?
