Amumu is a Vanguard that deals magic (AP) damage and brings stun, root. Their hard CC is tenacity-reducible, so Mercury's Treads and tenacity items shorten their lockdown.

PLAYING ASAmumu
  • Amumu is highly dependent on teammates, so try laning with your friends for maximum effectiveness.
  • Cooldown Reduction on Amumu is very strong, but it's often difficult to itemize for it. Grab the Golem buff whenever possible to gain Cooldown Reduction without sacrificing stats.
  • Despair is very effective against other tanks, so make sure you're in range of opponents with the highest Health.
PLAYING AGAINSTAmumu
  • Avoid bunching up with other allies when Amumu has his ultimate available.
  • Erratic movement, or hiding behind creep waves can make it difficult for Amumu to instigate a fight with Bandage Toss.
  • Amumu's Despair makes purchasing primarily Health items a risky proposition.
