is it the champ or me?

I can get super fed have 5 items just to loose a 1v1 to a 2 item toplaner with a kda score of 1/8. I love his playstyle but bro wtf i have to rely on my team in order to do something other than one shotting their adc, and in low elo its a coinflip wether your team is actually doing something or not. my user is 1992vnos#EUNE if anybody cares

Hecarim Pentakill

*Volume Warning*

First time I've gotten a penta in a bit. Craziest part is when I decided to ult trough Jax E and it ended up giving me setup to get a 1 Q double. I also have to say Voltaic Axiom is broken as fuck because how is this damage balanced on 2 items?

What is the play pattern on this champ supposed to be?

Just curious on how you guys plan out games generally cause I don't really get it.

Youre a power clear jungler but you don't scale well. So when are you supposed to stop clearing and start fighting? After second full clear?

How do you play games with ungankable lanes? I feel like since youre a mid game champ if you don't get ganks going you're just cooked.

Interestingly, I followed that really high elo KR otp, and the dude invades in like 70% of his games. Kinda crazy to me since hec doesn't strike me as that kinda champ but this guy makes it work.

armor pen

how important is armor pen on this champ ? ive been playing him for 3 years already and when there is armor stacking in enemy team like 3 melee i go conq spirit black cleaver. but when there are games where i have to tank less and just kill the enemy squishies i go the new phaserush voltaic shojin dd/maw/eh/maybe some tank item at the end. but should i build seryla or ldr into teams in the second group without any stacking armor?

asking about it because from the start of the season i was spamming conq shojin into black cleaver no matter the teamcomp rly, and not playing the more dmg version of this champ. opinions about other sources of armorpen than bc??? i dont like building more lethality items than voltaic

I Made A New Broken Hecarim Build

I swear to god this build is broken. I have literally not felt more alive when playing this build.

The build is essentially just this:

Gluttonous Greaves --> Axiom Arc --> Endless Hunger --> Spirit Visage (this core every game with gluttonous greaves on first back every single time unless you don't have enough then pickaxe) --> Voltaic Cyclosword/Death's Dance/Maw of Malmortius (Cyclosword if you need more damage and they're mostly AD, Death's Dance if they are mostly AD and the AD champs are a threat, and Maw if they're mostly AP or if they have a fed AP carry)

You want to deviate as well depending. Like if you need to one shot to win then go Cyclosword, or if they have fed specific damage type threats then you can go DD or Maw into Cyclosword or even if they have fed AD and AP threats you can go Maw and DD but at that point you need another person on your team to get cleaver if possible. And never go Cyclosword with a fed AP threat on the enemy team because no matter how much you try you will never kill them; they one shot you before you have a chance to heal shit.

You don't need anti heal with this build because you out-heal everyone anyways, and it's broken as fuck with enchanters. Keep in mind you DO NOT NEED AN ENCHANTER TO BUILD SPIRIT VISAGE as it applies to your omnivamp that you have and also your W healing. An enchanter is just a bonus with this build.

I'm telling you it's broken as fuck. For example I made 2 major fuck ups in this clip that would've cost me the fight and potentially the game with any other build. But as I said it's broken as fuck with enchanters. I could've easily dodged the Veigar E and I for sure could've backstepped the W but I heal for everything no matter what so it's fine.

The runes are as follows:

Primary |Stormraider's Surge - Nimbus Cloak, Transcendence, Waterwalking

Secondary |Precision - Triumph, Last Stand

Shards | Adaptive Force, Adaptive Force, Tenacity and Slow Resist

The transcendence allows you to skip out on legend haste because celerity is useless, and with it you can get a shit ton more kills as well as actually perform in fights because you basically get a Shojin when you have less than 30% HP that you just heal back anyways. Also never take health shards in your runes because tenacity 100% outvalues throughout the game unless they have literally 0 CC abilities.

Try it out and let me know what you think.

Hello guys, every season i’m hitting diamond with hecarim jungle. This season i was very close to dia 2 and recently had a very rough lose streak, now i’m emerald 4. What do you suggest me to do? What should i focus on my play style? Should i change account? Is hecarim the true one for 1v9 still? My mmr is pretty much fd up…

Love the horseman, he's one of the best DD abusers in the game, if you dont build this item on hecarim you re trolling

In my experience he's a very strong champ when it comes to snowballing but he can really struggle if u fall behind and he's actually harder to make work mechanically than I initially thought , knowing how to space your Qs and playing around stormraider proc with your E makes or breaks this character

Will miss it a lot soon because there's 0% chance both DD and stormraider don't get nerfed in a few patches, abuse it while u can

Why did people stop building muramana?

Current build are either voltaic axion or the classic shojin bruiser but I see no one build muramana anymore , does anyone have some insight as to why? Too slow to stack?

Double E Charge?

Anyone else who witnessed this E bug?

I used my E charge on Pyke twice. Kinda funny

I checked replay he didn't hook me.

Any highelo Hecarim mains to suggest builds?

I've been playing him mostly lethality and man it feels so insanely strong but one fuck up , one shut down given away and my game is lost , I normally never go for bruiser but I tried it a few games and it does feel very strong without as much risk as lethality

For lethality I go pickaxe usually on first base if I get no kills into ionian , voltaic , axiom arc and then either Edge/Serpents/Serylda/LDR but if they re heavy on burst I go DD

For bruiser its jus the usual shojin/bc/dd/maw/endless

Whats on your guys' experience most consistent? I'm playing around emerald/diamond rn but with the way things are going I think I'll get higher in diamond soon and would love to hear the thoughts of some master+ heca players

Is it only me to think Hecarim is unplayable as he has been for the last few months ?

Either it be damage but no sustain, tanky but no damage.
His only utility is on early ganks, on lanes that don’t have an easy escape. But after that….

When should you build shojins

Most people build it everyday but some builds don't have it at all. I'm wondering when you should build this item and when not to.
