SwoleBenji YT Split Push Counter Jungler CARRY

3246.9%

This build allows maximum mobility and DPS to kill medium jungle camps without reloading while having hyper mobility and safety with doors to always shove or split push a lane and steal the enemy jungle. Late game you become a bullet carry that can't be dived solo.

SwoleBenji YT BOUNCER Melee Spirit TANK

This build lets you jungle rather quickly to build up to high mobility, tanky items, and decent damage from both your melee attacks and call bell ability. You have unstoppable during your ult so you can melee freely without getting stunned from parries.
