Editor's pick · most-quoted
“Great carry jungler to play and like I said, the best AP champion up there. Moving on down into S tier, even with the nerfs to Ramis and Amumu, they're just not enough. I think Ice Overlord as a rune is just way too strong on these two champions and they just become very, very powerful. So, both Ramos and Amumu both get a um slap on the wrist pretty much and that's about it. Uh they're both still sitting S tier.”

  • Summoner spells: Flash + Smite
  • Always-included flex: Unshakeable, Bone Plating
