How to beat Amumu

Common role: Jungle / Support

A sad mummy whose bandage toss and ultimate lock entire teams.

What makes Amumu dangerous

Amumu throws a bandage that stuns and pulls him to you (two charges as support), tantrums with AoE damage reduction, and his ultimate roots and disarms everyone around him — the classic wombo setup for any AoE follow-up.

How to play against Amumu

• 1Hide behind minions: the bandage stops on the first unit hit.
• 2Spread for his ult — grouped teams lose the fight to one button.
• 3QSS/Cleanse the ult root on your carry.
• 4He's weak early: invade and pressure before his first item.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Bandage is body-blockable — one minion ruins the engage.
• ✓Mana-hungry early jungle clears.
• ✓Little threat when his ult is down — track it.
• ✓Magic damage only — MR stacking blunts him.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Amumu's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  Toucher maudit

  Les attaques de base d'Amumu maudissent ses ennemis, leur faisant subir des dégâts bruts supplémentaires chaque fois qu'ils subissent des dégâts magiques.

  Strong: cursed targets take bonus true damage from magic. Weak: the curse needs his team's magic follow-up — alone it's nothing.

• Q
  Jet de bandelette

  Amumu jette une bandelette collante qui étourdit et blesse l'ennemi touché tandis qu'Amumu s'approche de lui.

  Strong: a stunning pull with two charges as support. Weak: stops on the first unit — one minion bodyguard ruins it.

• W
  Désespoir

  Saisis par l'angoisse, les ennemis proches perdent chaque seconde un pourcentage de leurs PV max et leurs Malédictions sont actualisées.

  Strong: an AoE %HP burn aura for clears and brawls. Weak: drains mana constantly — his early fights are short.

• E
  Colère

  Les dégâts physiques subis par Amumu sont réduits. Amumu peut libérer sa rage pour infliger des dégâts aux ennemis proches. Chaque fois qu'Amumu est touché, le délai de récupération de Colère est réduit.

  Strong: passive damage reduction plus AoE damage on cast. Weak: the reduction covers physical only — magic goes through.

• R
  Malédiction d'Amumu

  Amumu emmêle les ennemis proches dans des bandelettes, appliquant sa Malédiction, leur infligeant des dégâts et les étourdissant.

  Strong: a huge AoE root-and-disarm — the classic wombo button. Weak: long cooldown; spread out and only one person eats it.

Itemization
