Intro

Well hello there ladies and gentlemen. How are you all today? Who am I kidding, I don't really care how you feel today I am just hear to give you my build and guide on Sun Wukong. Now please there are some things you should know about me before you read on.
This is the FIRST BUILD/GUIDE I have ever done, so I would appreciate it if you didn't completely rip me to shreds with your comments on how **** I am at this, that being said I will gladly take in and accept any feedback you have to offer.
Another thing you should note is that I am an extremely aggressive arse hole and the guide will contain some strong language so apologies in advance.
Without further a do lets get on to the first section. The items.

The Core Items

Ninja Tabi


Well its pretty self explanatory really, you get the boots at the start like you do with most gods. I personally feel that Ninja Tabi is great starting item for Sun Wukong. Why you may be asking yourself? Well because of the cool down reduction of course. You see I feel that Sun Wukong focuses a lot on his abilities especially in the early game. Thus why I recommend getting this asap.


Jotnn's Wrath

Well like I said before, you rely quite a lot on your abilities so you want them to be ready as fast as possible don't you? Jotnn's wrath reduces ability cool downs by 25%! Yes 25! That's a **** tonne isn't it?

Focused VoidBlade

Well you get focussed void blade for 3 reasons...
1: It gives you some good physical penetration
2: It has a fairly decent amount of physical protection which can probably help a **** tonne.
3: It looks bad ***. I mean come on, its a ****ing fiery sword of rape. What kind of humanoid monkey wouldn't want that ****?


Qin's Blades

What's not to love about these things? There probably my favourite item in the game and they work brilliantly on Sun Wukong. As I have previously said Sun relies a hell of a lot on his ability s. Don't ask me why he cant get **** done for himself but yeah. That's why I feel like these things make his basic attacks a little bit devastating. Suns basic attack is fairly fast to begin with. But put this **** on an he will be hitting faster than a beaver on crack... (Don't ask)
They also give a bit of physical power which is always nice to have!
All that being said I still haven't covered the best part. Qin's passive is brilliant and can be a real life saver. Why is it brilliant? Well not only do you do your normal amount of damage per hit (About 100-250) you also get a little bonus of 4 % of the victims maximum health.
Its beautiful isn't it?

The Situational Items ( The one that I use the most)

Now that iv'e covered the CORE items ill be moving on to the late game situational ones. Bare in mind I'm not going to cover all of these items but I will cover the ones that are my favourite out of the lot and the ones I have more experience with. If you have any questions about the ones I don't cover then feel free to ask them in the comment's. Thank you in advance.

Frostbound Hammer

Frostbound hammer is one of the more well known and more popular bruiser/warrior items, and I can definitely see why. Not only does it give you an incredibly decent amount of health (325 to be exact) and a bit of physical power (25). This item can be great in situations where you keep getting destroyed in fights. That extra 325 health can be a huge life saver. Not only that the passive makes it so everyone hit by your basic attack's has there movement speed reduced by a whopping 25% for 2 seconds. Now isn't that something?
I definitely recommend this item and it has helped my allies and I achieve many kills thanks to the passive speed de-buff. I personally feel that the frostbound hammers greatest asset is the passive and its ability to let you chase down your foes a lot easier.

Soul Eater

Well soul eater is one of the items that I tend to use more often than most. A lot of you may be asking why and if you haven't already noticed its mainly the Health and Attack Speed. The attack speed can give you the edge when in one v one fights and the health definitely gives you a fair bit more sustain. On top of all that good stuff is one other key feature. LIFE STEAL. Life steal is my hero. It has saved me on countless occasions and is a great asset to add on to Sun Wukong. You want to use this item when one v one fights aren't going your way. it works especially good in solo lane and overall boosts your sustainability and damage output.

Hydra's Lament

Hydra's Lament (Hydras Lemon as I like to call it) is an item I don't use often. That being said I still think its a great item and can really help you out through the any game stage. The great balance of phys power and cool down reduction can be an epic life saver when it comes to escaping and securing kills. I recommend buying this item as it allows you to be more open when using your basic attacks and abilities. I recommend initiating with the tiger transformation and then hitting with your basic attack to get a big burst of damage.

Deathbringer


Now a lot of you already know about the sheer power of deathbringer by now so I don't feel I need to explain that. However I will explain what situation you should use it in and why.
First of all this is a great late game item and you should only get this if you aren't dying but are not gaining the kills you want. Its an incredible late game burst of damage and can really make your enemies want to click the F6 button when your done with them.

Asi

So I can safely say that you kinda become a monster with this thing. The passive (read Asi's description if you don't know it) go's really well with suns passive. Not only that the physical life steal and physical penetration can really help you out in most situations. I recommend picking this item up if you keep on dying close to killing someone. However if you keep dying without leaving a scratch on your enemies its probably better you go for a different item such as soul eater or frost bound hammer as you will probably last longer overall.

Skills

The Magic Cudgel
The Magic Cudgel which is sun wukons 1 ability, is one of his greatest assets. It provides a great amount of damage especially in the early game. It is great for picking enemies of at a distance and overall just making them a little pissed. I recommend using this item to clear out waves of minions (Don't use it to much as Sun Wukongs mana is a piece of ****) and hit the enemy at the same time. Also this thing is pretty bad ***.

Masters Will
Masters Will is the one you level up fast. I feel it doesn't give off as much damage as the others but it helps in a different way. Using masters will not only does damage but also knocks your enemies up (In a non sexual way I hope). This ability is brilliant for stopping enemies doing there abilities and running away as the range is a little bigger than your basic attacks causing you to catch up to people easier with this ability. Overall I recommend using this when you can predict an enemy is going to use and attack or try retreat. Its also good to use this move after initiating with 72 Transformations.

72 Transformations
Well there are 3 reason why your going to use this ability....
1: You turn into a birdie to fly away and escape battles
2: You turn into a tiger to naw on the crotch/arse of your enemies causing them to be stunned (great for initiating)
3: You turn into an ox and get to completely destroy everything in your path (Great for pushing minion waves)
That's right you basically get 3 abilities for the price of one. Now that's not bad is it? The reason you upgrade this second is its no where near as important as the cudgel. The tiger and the eagle are the ones you will be using more. When you see your enemy is exposed after using all of his/her (or it depending on what there into) abilities its time to turn into a tiger and stun them. Once they are stunned I recommend using masters will to prevent them from retaliating with anything. If they realise they are on low health and threes no way they can beat you they will probably try to retreat. When there on the run smack them over the head with The Magic Cudgel causing an instant concussion and probably a kill if there weak. However if things aren't going your way when your fighting them you can always turn into a birdie and fly away cant you?

Somersault Cloud
This ultimate is so annoying its funny. That's why I love it so much. Basically sun wukong trolls them by sitting on his little nimbus cloud healing health and letting a decoy do some harassment. I've had enemy's use there ultimate's on me! Yes that's right ULTIMATE'S. Not only is this ability a life saver its also a good way to harass without touching them. I recommend using this ultimate whenever your about to initiate (as some of the enemies will fall for the decoy) or when your on low health and need to escape. Don't forget it heals you a heck of a lot when your in the air so you can easily go up to heal and relax and jump back down when your well rested and ready for round 2. This ability is amazing in team battles and arena. Do this ability while running into the middle of them and just watch them attack like crazy. Its ****ing beautiful. Aside from all that it does quite a bit of damage so yeah your one annoying bastard with this thing believe me.

Well I haven't included the passive have I? Yes the passive is very helpful but I feel that its pretty self explanatory. If you have any questions about the passive then please ask in the comments section. As I said before I am happy to ask any questions you have to ask.

The 3 Pros


Sun wukong has an overall great move set and overall damage. The best things about him in my opinion is....
1: His ability to escape fights easier
2: His ability to chase down enemies
3: His ability to initiate and escape unharmed
All of these are great because it overall lets you last longer and pick up the kills you need to have a good mid/late game. When your solo ganks wont be a problem and you can pretty much survive most attacks from the mid/jungle. Not only that when your enemy is weak and limping off with a tear in there eye then you can easily catch up to them and end there misery.

The 3 Cons

Just because he has a lot of good things doesnt mean he is without his bad things. I mean no one is perfect right? Even a humanoid monkey has its fare share of problems doesn't it?
1:His high mana usage........
Now I would say get mana buff at the start but even that isn't enough. For conquest I recommend getting a mana buff and buying meditate. Ridiculous I know. That's why I feel like this is his biggest downfall.
2: His little basic attack damage early game
As I have said 1000 times already, Sun relies a LOT on his abilities. This is why i recomend pciking up jotuns wrath as it will come in handy when it comes to spamming. Other than that be careful early game. When you get qin's blades then you should start using your basic attacks more often. Bare in mind that your passive ability helps with the damage output a lot but it doesn't make you invincible. BE CAREFUL.
3: Little you can do against tank's
Well its not that you don't have options, it just most of them are pointless. I mean you cant do much against tanks so god help you if you have someone like Ymir on your lane. I recomend just avoiding them and focusing on pushing them rather than killing them. That's what seems to work best for me.

One last thing......

Well that's all really. Remember its my first guide/build so try not to make me cry with comments. Remember this build/guide might not be for everyone, this is just what I found worked for me and what I have the most fun with so I felt like I should share it with others. Thank you all for reading and HAPPY PLAYING

Firstly, stop swearing. You aren't in high school.

Build


Inflexible, considering how you mandate focused voidblade as a core item. Other than that, it seems alright.

Item Explanations


You just give "CDR is good" as the item explanation. Other than that, you just describe the item, like how it gives physical protection and penetration and power. Bad, you need to give reasons why they are good, specifically for Sun Wukong.

Skill Explanations


You could literally cut the amount of text you used in half if you were more concise. Other than the excess rambling, this bit isn't bad.

Guiding/Gameplay


NONE. You didn't even give a role. Bad.

Details


While I do like adding pictures, I think you went overboard on this one. When the pictures aren't related to the content of the chapter, they feel rather meaningless and obstructive. Also, I think you should center them. Like this:

Also, you have a lot of text walls. And there are a lot of spelling and grammar errors.

The separate pros and cons sections are rather pointless. I think could should just put them all in one section, instead of filling a page with text.

You don't seem to understand BBC coding. Those huge item images are unnecessary when you could use the icon command.
Code:
[icon=Item Name size=Item Size

Summary


You can see my issues with this by reading this review. But if I could say only one thing, it would be: No gameplay, downvote.
