Tips & Tricks

  • Using your dash, you can AA between the dashes (so Dash - AA - Dash - AA) if in position to attack.
  • You can use your shield as AA cancel so (AA - Shield - AA)
  • If bursting a target, make sure to ult early so they take as much damage as possible and more have more of their protections shredded.
  • If you know you are about to be CC’ed you can pre beads and then use your shield (Because your shield is removed on CC)
  • You can easy kill tanks as Nemesis!

You should look him up on Twitch as well ;)

He streams a ton and he is very interactive and explains everything if you got questions.
One of the best, if not the best streamer to watch if you want to learn jungle (ranked) IMO

I don't think its a good idea to replace Crusher on Nemesis, its a very good item on her that let you to delete squishies more easily, you even get some pen and att speed from it.
Consider to add Stone Cutting Sword, its a very good item on Nemesis, especially when you 1 vs 1 with the other jungler (if the jungler is another assassin or warrior).
Also Spirit Robe works awesome on her instead of Magi's Cloak.

Keep in mind that this build only tops out at 170 power before selling crusher, so the crusher passive is only dealing 45 damage over 2 seconds. The 75 damage on BF alone is giving her 45 damage back on scaling (on her 2), which is most of the way there. And while Crusher is falling off late game, lifesteal is becoming crucial in order to sustain herself in longer team fights. Obviously you can't have everything and the loss of attack speed hurts, but it's definitely correct to do when you have unlimited money really late into a game.
Obviously I can't speak for Lasbra but I'm guessing this is why he's recommended to do it.

As for Stone-Cutting Sword, it's in the crit build (build #2), where most of your damage is coming from basic attacks. Doesn't give you enough in the standard ability build compared to the other items available.

And absolutely, Spirit's Robe works well as an alternative to Magi's, as does Mantle. It all depends on the enemy composition and the types of CC on the enemy team. This is only supposed to be a cookie-cutter build that works well enough in all situations, but as such it probably won't be the optimal build in most of them. Use your discretion!

In my opinion, I would replace Heartseeker with Bloodforge if the situation demands but not really.
Crusher really helps when you need to chase the enemy and AA him while 2 is still on cooldown.
Maybe with the incoming nerf on her damage burst skill, Heartseeker will be mandatory.
I have no problems using this build, works very well against tanks too: Warrior Tabi, Crusher, Jotunn, Spirit Robe, Stone Cutting Sword and a situational( Titan's Bane if more tanks or squishy people with def items, Brawler if there are healers and Qin's Sais if there are only squishy people without tanks or healers).
Your build is very good too, still, I need to see how mandatory will be Heartseeker after the incoming nerf.

Even though you're not Lasbra, I think your guide series is super cool.

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
