Full build mundo ftw.
Ok. Mundo has to go all tank. If he does he just dies. Yes, at lower elo maybe you can cheese with some weird variant like rylais (lol), but otherwise he needs to build full tank if he's any use. He gets bonus AD from his E and he does percentage damage with cleavers. After all, you're the tank, not the adc. Building damage items really is a no-no.
For mundo to do anything in teamfights he needs to be as tanky as he can be. Spirit visage and warmongs usually do the trick, and maybe a armor item like thornmail and randuins depending on enemy team comp. To truly go where mundo pleases, there really is no other option.

I speak from experience - mundos that don't go full tank just die.

The ladder is hard to climb, but I'm in the first million of euw player, ranked now BI, next step is to say goodbye to bronze league and welcome silver...

Btw I think I'm improving my gaming and I can do better and better, except when i go adc, I don't understand that role...When it's simple farm it's ok, but if we trade i end outdamaged by nearly anyone, and the result is that I pick jinx to have pushing power, and I play game as adc permasplitpushing and only my super mega death rocket is in teamfight, if it reaches it from across the map. I really can't play adc in teamfights...

If it comes to a tank, i dive in and use my cc / sustain to be there, if I'm midlaner like lux, I use my skills from afar, if I play Diana I dive on squishies, if I'm morgana, flash R zhonya gg, but what the hell should adc do in a teamfight? I am sick of being flamed because I can do well enough 4 roles, but calling pls no adc I am bad adc and recieving "then don't play ranked" as answer.

First of all, Jinx isn't a very good ADC if you're learning to play the role. I'd suggest Caitlyn, as she has the highest aa range in the game. As an ADC, your job is to farm up early. While trading, you need to take into consideration who you're trading against and their items. If you're trading against Graves, it's probably better just to aa him every now and then and not go all in, because he has immense burst for an ADC. Basically, it's all about poking them down far enough until you know you can go all-in and get a kill.

Mainly, it's all about knowing how to poke in lane with the ADC you're using. Wait until the enemy ADC goes up for a cs and aa them. Use your Caitlyn/Graves Q, Jinx/Twitch W to poke more long range. For an ADC like Vayne, it's a lot trickier to poke and you have to position yourself correctly.

In teamfights, you basically wanna stay as close to your teammates as possible, while still being in the backline. Your team should be peeling for you (i.e. if an enemy champion hops on you, they hop on them). Attack the AP Carry first, then the tank, then the ADC. Take them down one at a time; but just try to get some massive damage out.

3s is my preferred role. Screw SR


Anyone interested in doing ranked 3s (prefer people that are use to 3s meta and are at least silver 1 since its what my last 3s team was and that was me carrying 2 bronze friends) should add me in game and message me.

I agree with you that TT is awesome!

ADC (best role) - Tristana, Lucian, Miss Fortune, Ashe
Mid - Ziggs, Syndra, Heimerdinger, Akali, Karthus
Top - Kayle, Amumu (as a counterpick), Malphite, Jax, Dr. Mundo

Sh. Don't pay attention to me. Just slowly returning. Slowly.

Anywho, I have a dozen or so Dragonslayer Pantheon [975 RP] and Fist Bump Ward [n/a RP] Skins that expire July 11th. I'd really like to trade these for another skin [hello Deep Sea Thresh] or some other arrangement.

Just a reminder that you wouldn't need Pantheon to redeem the skin. You will receive Pantheon for free.

Also, to update my stuff, I am Silver III and main Support but am capable of not feeding in lane otherwise. I'm free to duo with anyone when I get back from Anime Expo.

If you have any left that you need to get rid of, feel free to PM me on Twitch (I'm 5678bam on Twitch) or League
Anywho, I'll update your stuff now

~ Pre-Nerf Sona (will try later)

Wouldn't call her rework a nerf. Her Q Aura now grants more damage. Her W Aura gives a shield. And her Ult is longer, albeit thinner.

Wouldn't call her rework a nerf. Her Q Aura now grants more damage. Her W Aura gives a shield. And her Ult is longer, albeit thinner.

Patch notes comments (including those by PBE testers) made a general consensus that it would make Sona unplayable based on the small range of her auras. Also iirc the patch notes said the ult's was visually improved to represent the actual hitbox's dimensions, but the hitbox itself was not changed.

To be fair, I've only played against 1 Sona in bot lane since the rework, and the ranges don't look as bad as the number suggest, and as you mentioned it does seem true that her Q poke is stronger now. Then again, I was also playing without Magic Resist runes and the usual 9 masteries in defense because China smurf.
