League of Legends (LoL) Question: BOTRK and Trynity Force on Wukong

BOTRK and Trynity Force on Wukong

Asked by sebas8181 on October 14, 2014

Hi people. Wukong is becoming my main. He's extremely strong and fun to play. I start 95% with crystalline flask + potions. I have an overall good performance on him, but struggle against really tanky tops like Mundo, Nasus, Chogath and specially with malphite. Should I start with dorans blade in these cases? What do you think about using botrk instead of ravenous hydra?

Also, my core items are Hydra+Black Cleaver+boots, and depending on the situation I buy malmortius or Solar cape/Randuin´s after that. What do you think about Tryity Force and on which situations can be useful on him? Is it a 4th, 5h or 6th viable item? I was thining using it as 5th item when my team is somewhat tanky and the enemies are squishy.

Finally, what are your thoughts about swiftness boots or CD boots on top ? What boots do you use? And frozen mallet?

Thanks =)

It's hard to go wrong with Trinity Force on any damage oriented champion, and Wu can proc the spellblade passive pretty regularly. It's a very expensive item to be picking up that late in the game, though... Zephyr can serve a very similar purpose at a lower price point.

Wu is one one my favorite champs too, and your build is very similar to mine. If you're having problems with HP heavy champs like Mundo and Cho, go for BoRK so you can deal true damage. Malphite is a different beast entirely when it comes to AD champs, though. You'll have a better time trying to put him in a 2v1 situation than trying to duel him. He is kinda made to have an upper hand against you, after all. But a Last Whisper should go a long way against him.

I agree with GrandmasterD on the boots; both bad choices. Always Tabi or Merc tread with him. And don't build a Frozen Mallet on him unless you're building Atma's as well.

Hydra has a much bigger synergy with Wukong and allows him to push the wave without using his abilities. Lucidity Boots, Boots of Swiftness, and Frozen Mallet are all pretty terrible; do not buy those.

Also, trinity force can be useful on him, but usually you can do better just by building something else. For instance, a , a , or a would do quite well on wukong, for example.
