Sunfire IS a core item on amumu.
Also getting a leviathan is a MUST on amumu on a half-decent team.
You'll be raking in assists like hell = leviathan is worth it 100%
I often get around 10~ stacks all the time in average games and that's CHEAP hp.
Hmm, Levi isn't very popular in the US servers, cause I almost never see it >_> IIRC, 10-11 stacks is the break even point, and that's a fairly difficult amount to achieve in an appreciable amount of time. However, the 20 stack bonus is very sexy xD
More on the Bandage Toss thing... you might run into frustration if you're attempting to Toss your way through walls via neutral creeps, and here's why:
Quote:[SIZE="3"]Jumping Walls[/SIZE]
Why When escaping from enemies you may find simple running insufficient. In these cases, you may want to jump, dash, Flash, or otherwise move to the other side of a large obstruction. Here we will detail some of the ways to move across barriers.
Ground Jumps Ground jumps are abilities that physically move your champion to a target location on the ground, like Tristanas Rocket Jump or Shens Shadow Dash. However, if you dont give yourself enough room to land on the other side of the barrier, you wont go through at all. Ensure your champion has enough room to spread out before you attempt any daring maneuvers. Amumu and Blitzcrank work similarly with Bandage Toss and Rocket Grab. Sometimes the champion and the target will end up on opposite sides of the barrier if theres no room for both champions on one side.
Ground Flashes Ground flashes instantly teleport your champion to the location. Ezreals Arcane Shift and Shacos Deceive are examples of ground flashes. Unlike jumps, flashes react differently when interacting with barriers: If you attempt to flash to a location inside a barrier, it will push your champion out to the nearest opening. Sometimes this may result in your champion not moving anywhere, but often it can double the distance on your flash as it pushes you out the other end. Any champion make use this trick if they pick the summoner spell Flash.
Targeted Spells Some abilities require you to choose a specific target to jump or flash to. Jaxs Leap Strike and Katarinas Shunpo are primary examples of targeted movement spells. In these cases, you must have an enemy (or teammate if applicable) in range in order to cast the spell. Like with ground jumps, you may not always end up on the same side of the barrier. There is one exceptional trick you can pull off with targeted movement spells. If you carry a ward around with you, you can place it on the other side of a cliff, and Leap Strike or Shunpo to safety after placing it.
