Rammus OP Jungle Guide For League Of Legends (S3)

Rammus, is a powerful tank based jungler with a strong/borderline OP ability to taunt the enemy for as long as 3 seconds. Rammus has acceptable clear speed, sustainability and an awesome ganking potential pre level 6. With his speedy Powerball ability, you can Q and roam the entire map in high speed even though you are a turtle who is supposed to move & act slowly. Rammus is a dedicated jungle specialist, meaning to say that he is not suitable for any lane except jungle. Your primary goal of playing Rammus is to taunt the enemy carries (AD/AP) whenever possible and secure kill for your team.

Rammus Jungling Route = Wolf -> Blue -> (Look for ganking opportunity in bot > Mid -> Top with your powerball and taunt) -> Wraith -> Red -> (Gank Again if not low in pots and Hp) -> Golem -> Wraith -> Base -> Gank again at level 4 with red.

Primary Skill To Upgrade : W (Puncturing Taunt). Your bread and butter to taunt the enemy carry to attack your hardened shell with spike. I prefer to finish this by level 9

Secondary Skill To Upgrade : W (Defensive CurlBall) (Learn this to reflect damage deal to that enemy (including creeps) that attacks you, finish this by level 13 to enhance your damage output)

Tertiary skill : Q(Powerball) (I usually up 1 level of powerball at level 1 for its superb mobility and stop upgrading it until I hit level 14)

Ultimate : R (Tremor) (A powerful AOE AP ability that can damage surrounding enemies and tower. Learn this at level 6, level 11 and 16)

Rammus Pre Level 6 : Rammus is one of the few junglers (Ie : XZ, Lee sin, etc) who does really well in Level 2 gank. To take advantage of his early ganking prowess, you must first learn Powerball & puncturing taunt by level 2. As you move nearer to the bush (@ top, mid or bot). Initiate with your powerball (Q) and ram towards your victim at full speed, taunt him with W and hope that your teammate will secure the kill. Once you have acquired Defensive curlball @ level 3, your ganking potential increases by 2 fold as this little ability reflects damage and increase your armor & Magic resistance tremendously. Your full combo for wrecking the enemy in high speed is Q, E, W & Auto attack. Creeps will stop your powerball movement so be sure to move the turtle around the creeps and then hit your intended target.

Rammus Post Level 6 : With Tremor At level 6, Rammus becomes a menace not just to the enemy carries but to the tower as well. The combo sequence for Rammus is Q, E, W & Auto attack + R (Tremor). The initiation process is the same as pre level 6 except that you R immediately after triggering your defensive curlball (E). You can also use Tremor & AA to take down tower with ease when the enemy heroes aren't around the tower or be killed.

Team Fight : In organized team fight, your primary goal is to look for opportunity to taunt the enemy carry (AD/AP) so that your carries can follow up and kill him/her. To further increase Rammus mobility in chasing the enemy carries, I prefer buying Shurelya's Reverie as my second items as it gives 40% increase in move speed upon activation. You can also use your puncturing taunt as defensive move in team fight when your carries were initiated by the enemy bruiser or initiator.
