Champ 8: Sejuani


Next up,I wanted to look for a tank that could charge into the enemy team,deal chunks of AOE damage and get away with it alive. I looked no further when I thought of Sejuani - the Winter's Wrath. I've played against some Sejuani's before and they could take some damage while dishing out some insane crowd control (stun,slow). She had incredible mobility to boot.So,why not?

Of course,things were quite rough in the beginning. They still are,now. I decided to play Sejuani as a jungler because Phreak inspired me to. Not. Mobafire guides encouraged Sejuani to jungle instead of laning. I did some thinking myself,and figured I'd go with a jungling Sejuani,partially because I'd love the feeling of charging (Q skill) into the enemy and make them sh*t their pants by flashing away,or something.

As Udyr was the only champion that I ever jungled with before,I never thought of jungling as a hard thing. That's why I focused on Sejuani's late-game stats when deciding on masteries. Boy,was I wrong. Jungling was only easy for Udyr,it seems. Even with Smite,my Sejuani was struggling with the neutral creeps of the jungle. I had to compromise with Sejuani's difficult jungling and go with 5 potions and a cloth armor,but even then,jungling with her was very difficult,even after so much improvisation.

My HP got low everytime I cleared 2 successive minion camps (golem,wraith,etc.) and thus couldn't gank the unsuspecting enemies as my health was much lower than theirs. As of yet,I still haven't figured out how to effectively jungle as a Sejuani. When I do..Damn,feeling ecstatic just thinking about it!




My first six games with Sejuani,no cheating. 6 games in total,3 where I was doing OK while 3 others where we died horrible deaths. Since all of these were losses,I assume that I'm the one who dragged the team down.

But I won't give Sejuani up,since I did spend 6,300 IP on her. Not only that,she is a little hot too,methinks. :3 I'll keep on using her from time to time to polish my Sejuani skills and hope that I'll be able to carry the team with her soon. =]
