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.
To be honest, I don't like items where I have to stack to get the benefits. At this point, I'm "intermediate", and cannot stage many ganks and whatnot like you can.
Yesterday when I played Amumu, Frozen Heart showed up as one of the "Recommended" items. Is it a good item to get for Amumu?
[spoiler=Difference between Rammus and Amumu (as I see it), now I've seen best of both worlds....]Correct me if there are any points here that are wrong.
Amumu:
- Can only initiate from a short distance (somewhat of a disadvantage). Though the Bandage skill stuns and drags him to the targeted enemy, so eh, everything works out.
- Ultimate can cause tons of trouble for the opponent, especially if chained up with other Amumu skills (saw this firsthand last night, lol). Hey, free kills anyone?
- Farming = not good. Of course, he's a tank, so not a surprise.
- Can't jungle. Eh, whatever.
- Despair. I can't say enough how many times that skill is quite deadly if used in conjunction with other Amumu skills. Though its a bit MP-costly if used over a long period of time.
- Tantrum gives Amumu a bit of hardiness, albeit not much. Can deal "SURPRISE BUTTSECKS" damage - implicitly - when executing initiations.
Rammus:
- Has the ability to stage initiations from long and short range via Powerball. Powerball can allow him to move and/or escape.
- Taunt = EXTREMELY deadly if used correctly.
- Ultimate is only good when it is comboed with other skills. One benefit to this, though, is that it can wreck turrets and inhibitors. Backdoor, anyone?
- Somewhat squishy when not on Curl until he gets fully armed with all of his tanking armors.
- Curl = makes him hard as a rock.
- Can jungle, but only past level 6 or so.
- Can't farm. He's a tank. Nuff said.
