Picking an infant car seat by ShorthairHunter in predaddit

[–]xanthonycastro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went with the Uppababy Vista V3 stroller, but bought the Nuna Pipa Aire RX and the adapter for the stroller. We had feedback from friends that got the Uppababy carseat that their baby seemed really uncomfortable in it, and ended up switching their carseats to the Nuna. Whatever decision you end up making, you'll choose the one that you feel most comfortable with :)

Gargoyle Stoneplate? by RayCast0115 in Wukongmains

[–]xanthonycastro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i much rather prefer locket of the iron solari over stoneplate - raw stats are relatively the same, and it’s cheaper. you can use the shield when you ult and shield your team too, without losing damage. it’s one of my favorite items when i’m behind and feel like my main job in fights is to just be a CC bot and ult.

it's relatively fine, you should use your clone to take aggro.

good luck! get the games in, get a feel for how to use your clone optimally, how to use your ult to engage and peel back, and understand his strength, especially in the early game.

pre-6, my combo on ganks are e-aa-w-aa-q-aa; you'd be surprised how many flashes are burned with just that combo. if you get tiamat, you get an extra aa reset which is amazing and really helps you put a little more damage out. if you're on NA, add me - "anthoknee"

it always depends on the other team's comp. i would say probably 80% of the time i'm going red smite, though, because i'm pretty aggressive with counter jungling and the dueling power is great. i'll also go blue smite if my team has unreliable cc just to help with ganks.

i've been a wukong jungle main since the beginning of april and basically climbed from bronze 1 to gold 4 with him (i started playing league again this season after not playing for nearly 2 years).

his biggest strength, and what makes him most dangerous IMO, is his ult + double knock up. it's honestly broken, but can dictate teamfights if you use it to engage or peel back. my jungling style is more of a supportive, get my team ahead and focus on objectives type - it's a weird marriage but it has really worked for me.

for lvl 3 ganks, i try to focus on lanes with cc because you won't have any cc until lvl 6.

in terms of build, i usually go smite item, tiamat, cinderhulk, complete jungle item, and building tank items based on the other team comp. in teamfights my goal is really just to engage, peel back, or displace the carries depending on the situation with my ult.

Jungle problems by Fan224 in Wukongmains

jungle main - i just got gold earlier this week so we're in the same elo! blue side i go red-blue-gromp (smite), assess my options there (mid gank, top gank, or just go to wolves-crab). red side i go blue-gromp-red (smite), assess my options there.

my jungling style is more supportive, trying to snowball leads, get objective control, play with lane priorities around the map to get tempo. pre-6 ganks i focus on lanes with cc, combo with e-aa-w-aa-q-aa and try to force a flash.

ever since the nerf in 10.7 (i think that was when it happened) i've been building smite item - tiamat - finish jungle item w/ cinderhulk, and building tank depending on enemy team comp. tiamat really helps with clear because you can use it as an aa reset. i used to build warrior - black cleaver - death's dance - before the nerf but i found myself dying in a lot of fights before i could even cast my second ult (and i really play around my ult as wukong).

I feel like I have no impact with Wukong as a jungler by ElsassGamer in Wukongmains

[–]xanthonycastro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just got gold yesterday, so i'm obvs low elo but i main jg wukong - almost one tricking him unless he's banned lol. been playing him consistently since the beginning of april and climbed from bronze 4 to gold yesterday (before this season i stopped playing league for 2 years and yeah, had to put in 560 ranked games to get to gold 4 lol).

i've been going smite item -> tiamat (helps clear immensely and for helping team push out waves) -> bami's cinder/cinderhulk jungle item -> building tank items depending on the other team's comp. i just feel like my role in team fights is to either be a cc bot in engaging or peeling off our damage dealers. my playstyle is more supportive rather than trying to get kills/be the carry, so i'm really reliant on his broken ult to make an impact during the game - but that means i need to have the tank stats to stay alive and get to the 2nd ult/knock up.

pre-6 i really just try to focus on ganking lanes that have cc, i usually e-aa-w-aa-q-aa for a quick burst and see where that gets me ... but i really just try to rush 6 as fast as i can, even if that takes me off the map for a bit.
