Doing rest of update tomorrow.

Hi, this is a guide to jungle Mundo. I will be going into detail about everything you need to know to become a top Mundo player. The strength and weaknesses of Mundo are quite similar to Shyvana's. You can even see him be used in competitive matches although Diamondez failed when he used him in the Kings of Europe tournament.
He was the first one to use him in competitive play and he failed but you still should not write him of as trash. Dr. Mundo is a very strong but also situational pick as he has some counters as told in the pros and cons.
This guide focuses on Carry-Mundo which is the best way to play him in solo queue.

• Extremely fast clear
• High damage threat
• Very fast with
• keeps you high health
• Good counterjungler
• Health is new OP stat

• Abilities all cost health
• Nearly no CC, so he can be kited
• Countered by and snares
• Ganks are not great (without )
• Unlike other fast clearers (Udyr, Shyvana) he does not have any skill that gives him move speed aside from his ult

Offense: The regular armor pen for late game and boosts for early game. Better than Utility imo, but up to preference.

Defense: Jungle stuff and late game tankiness, health is the new op stat which is good for Mundo. That is why you should not take Legendary armor. It does not have great benefits as a health stacker.

Will go more in depth soon.

Same in Season 3

Flat attack speed marks give you the most damage and the fastest clear due to your steroid. Armor penetration is also possible but not as good (got nerfed too)

Here you really only have one choice: Flat armor seals keep you fairly healthy in the new stronger jungle.

You can choose your favorite ones. I like magic resist per level because it gives you nice tankiness late game and there are not many good magic resist items but you can take flat magic resist for early game dominance or even flat attack speed for a faster clear.

Movespeed quints give you a faster clear time and you can not be kited as easily as normally. Attack speed (benefits ), spell vamp (for jungle sustain) and health are OK too. Just figure something you like (that is not mana) and use it.

Because you jungle you take . You need this to be able to secure buffs, dragon and baron. In the new jungle you can hardly get away without it.

For the other spell:
is usually best because your only other CC is your cleaver and that is a skillshot. So it makes your ganks way better and in teamfights it helps a lot too.
However, if the enemy team has a lot of stun ults (Morgana, Galio, Sona, etc.) or you want to do some crazy counterjungling (example game in introduction) is good too. Also vs. , and because you get caught to easily otherwise.

got nerfed again but it is just still pretty good.

Dr. Mundo regenerates 0.3% of his max health each second.





Your passive gives you 1 hp/5 for each 66.6 health you have so it is pretty powerful. With 3000 health it gives you about 45 hp/5, one of the reasons health is good on Mundo.




Dr. Mundo hurls his cleaver, dealing damage equal to 15 / 18 / 21 / 23 / 25% of the target's current health (80 / 130 / 180 / 230 / 280 damage minimum) and slowing them by 40% for 2 seconds.

Cooldown 4 seconds

Cost 30 / 50 / 70 / 90 / 110 health

Range 10000




This spell is your skillshot slow. You do not use it for the damage (although it does good damage lategame) and the slow does not get better with levels so you leave it at 1 point for ganking and chasing.



Toggle: Dr. Mundo deals 40 / 55 / 70 / 85 / 100 (+20% of ability power) magic damage to nearby enemies, and reduces the duration of crowd control effects on Dr. Mundo by 15 / 20 / 25 / 30 / 35%.

Cooldown 4 seconds

Cost 20 / 28 / 35 / 43 / 50 health per second

Range 325




"Burning Agony" does extreme amounts of damage to anything around you and reduces CC. You clear the jungle very fast with this but do not forget to turn it of as it will drain your live pretty quickly till you get some HP. Turn it on whenyou want to:

• Jungle
• Gank
• Teamfight
• Get out of CC

Increases physical damage by 40 / 55 / 70 / 85 / 100 for 5 seconds. Dr. Mundo gains an additional +0.4 / 0.55 / 0.7 / 0.85 / 1 damage for each percentage of health he is missing.

Cooldown 7 seconds

Cost 15 / 30 / 45 / 60 / 75 health

Range 300




This spell is a very nice AD steroid which gives even more AD when Mundo is low. This also helps you clear fast and it increases your damage by a lot for ganks and teamfights.




Dr. Mundo regenerates 50% of his Max Health over 12 seconds. Additionally, he gains 15 / 25 / 35% movement speed.

Cooldown 75 seconds

Cost 20 percent of health



Your ultimate is a great healing and hasting selbuff. It can be used to keep yourself high on HP (low cooldown) and for the ghostlike haste (to chase or run).
Do not use this ability when you are ignited unless you are almost full HP and you want to use it for the haste as it will heal you for less than it costs.

: whenever, obvious
: for a fast clear and maximum damage
: second for a good steroid and more damage, however you get 2 levels at 2 and 3 because you do not have enough HP for higher level W early
:weakest scaling, no slow increase, last but 1 point at level 4 for ganking

In the builds below I skipped the jungle items (
and). Decide wgat you take depending on team comp and gankability of lanes. If you take just leave out one of the items.



Mostly described in the Item section. After the look who is fed/farmed on the enemy team and decide if you need more armor, MR or you are just roflstomping and need damage damage. The build above is pretty standard though.


Getting into does not give you much damage early but because APs mostly consist of burst damage you can not really die with this build and since Mundo has high base damages you do not need much until after (with or ). Round up your build with and versus the enemy AD or just get for more DPS.


Exchanging with still but gives you damage but armor instead of MR. After that you need some MR, so get as it is cheap and also offers health. Last item is up to choice but is pretty common.

Update soon



You want to start at wraiths (get damage from your team) and then do red (get a pull). If your golems are not taken go on golems to wraiths (need to wait a bit) to wolves to blue, gank or b. If they are taken do wolves to blue to wraiths/golems, gank or b. You mostly want to farm the jungle and get gold and exp but you can also counterjungle effectively and gank.
You want to donate all blues after the first to your mid if he/she has mana. When you do not have or there is almost no point ganking though unless your laner has some CC (chapter "Ganking") or the enemy is hopelessly overextended because you yourself bring very little CC.
Always time buffs/dragon/baron.



You can also start at your wolves and blue (not using ) and go do the enemy red right after or, depending on where there jungler starts, start at your wraiths and red (not using ) and then do the enemy blue buff.
After you have acquired both buffs this way you can usually try to kill the enemy jungler once he comes, but if he does not come, he is counterjungling you so get back to your jungle (when stolen enemy blue) or completely take his (when stolen enemy red) but alway leave 1 wraith/small golem.
If he does come do not try to kill him to hard as it is his jungle and his teammates will be there sooner than your's but you can easily get first blood versus some champions. Boots are recommended for this counterjungling as otherwise you might not be fast enough at clearing their buff and they come midway through.

,: You can counterjungle these guys but do not fight them in their jungle as they are tanky and can lock you up with CC until their teammates clean you up.

: These are very blue relient and slow junglers. Also they are weak in the early levels. So counterjungle these guys to death. Invade their blue early, take their wraiths all the time, do whatever you want basically.

(): These are the great counterjunglers. Against those you just want to farm your jungle and countergank, as otherwise they will take all of your jungle.

Other match-ups are pretty standard.

You get this on your first clear mostly for experience. After that you want to give it to your mid (assuming he/she uses mana) or otherwise your top (assuming he/she uses mana) on blue side, same with mid and bot on purple side. If your on blue side with and you might as well take it for full exp.

This is very helpful for you as it offers a slow until you get or and a good amount of true damage. but once you get one of those you can give it to your top (purple side) or AD carry (blue side) if they can make use of it.

Good lanes to gank for are lanes with nice CC (mostly stuns, snares) like: and so on. They allow you to output crazy damage on the CC'ed target.

Other people it is a lot harder to gank for like: and stuff like that as you offer nearly nothing but your damage and in a gank and if your laner has no CC the enemy just runs to their tower.



Lanes without a dash or CC-removal/shield like or tend to be gankable the easiest as they have no real way of escaping you besides flash. Also top lane is easiest to gank generally because their distance to tower is higher than mid lane's and they do not have as much ward coverage as bot lane.



: Once she hits 6 she has 3 dashes and to escape so you have to gank her pre 6.

: If you gank her she can sometimes just 1v2 you because of the crazy DPS she has. So do not gank this unless you are full HP.

: Oranges too gud.

: Slams around the place and knocks you away.

: Triple dash and untargetability, let your teammate bait him to use them.

: Movespeed buff, slow, knock-up and knock-back.

: Black shield, binds you, nothing you can do.

and : Both are almost ungankable post 6 as they will probably just kill you. Renekton also has a double dash.

: She has a mini dash every 2 secs and increased movement speed while in brush and in ult.

: Ult, and he just runs away. You need to get him pre 6.

: Taunt-dash, you do reduced damage, almost impossible unless really pushed up.

: Pool broken. You can not really kill a good Vlad when your laner is not Warwick or something like that.

Early game you want to follow one of the jungle patterns shown above looking at what the enemy jungler is. After you have decided on your route and starting item go to the respective buff and tell your teammates to cover. You should not gank pre level 4 unless a very clear opportunity arrives (enemy dives, etc.). Mostly farm up but also counterjungle when you see the enemy jungler ganking. Focus on one lane that is easily gankabile and can carry.
Come mid game you want to man up for objectives and try to take dragons, towers and buffs while continuing to farm the jungle and gank.
Here teamfights start breaking out (section below).
You start to get really strong and your GP/10 starts paying of.

You are really strong right now. Mundo's damage potential late game is higher than almost every other jungler's.
Run with your team to get objectives (baron, towers, inhibs). Teamfight well.
You want to stand in the frontline to protect your carries. When you can, exhaust the enemy carry (AP or AD) and run at them with W and E. Use your ult if you need to catch up to someone.
If the enemy team engages you might want to exhaust the person that dives onto your carry.

Because Mundo is so tanky with a lot of regen and move speed you can pick up . It is very good if you are ahead and you want to drive home the advantage. Group with your team and roam through the enemy jungle clearing wards so they have no more vision and you can bait dragon/ baron (especially versus teams without ). It also helps you not to get caught and after you killed some wards it also pays off in terms of gold. However, often you want to leave buying to your support.

I have lately played a few 3v3 ranked games with my team and gotten some experience with Mundo there as well. Generally you can go bot or top but I would advise a solo lane. Jungling is also possible if you want to. For lane I would max for maximum trolling of the enemies or if you can not hit it max . and counter him a little too well which is why you can not just max and run into all of them with . For items they stay about the same except that you do not get and and are gone and if you are winning you can buy at any point of the build. For summoners if you jungle they are the same and if you lane go and or . Stay back a little more and throw cleavers if they have healing debuffs and otherwise or after they blew them on someone else just run at them and own them.

This was Jungle Mundo all the way, so intense. Now you know everything to become a good Mundo and devistate the enemy team. They shall fear you. Thanks for reading and I hope you had even even half the fun I had writing this.
