honestly, im not so sure about him needing buffs. yes, he is niche, but not bad. lets go over it. his ganking pre 6 sucks. yes, thats true. which is actually not a bad thing, as that is indeed a neccessary countermeasurement to his indeed incredible sustain. i wouldnt go as far as to say he has the best sustain in the jungle (he runs out of mana quite fast if he doesnt have blue), but its amazing. his ganks post 6, albeit not as many as that of other junglers, are amazing. a blink with a 1.8 second surpression? few junglers have ganks that awesome. yes it can be countered by one item. and only that one. while the cc of most junglers can be countered by qss zhonyas AND cleanse. or dodged. in teamfights he is "useless" after ulting. nope. asides from his as buff, which is very strong on ad carries, he also has a %max hp damage, which is a lot, and he has his e which is able to reveal fleeing enemies. what actually is a problem is the fact that his ult can be ccd out. on the other hand, unless the enemy has his cc on smartcast and that cc is near instant you will get at least a second out of it. he doesnt need expensive items. on the contrary, he is good with inexpensive items. spirit of the ancient golem, spirit visage, neither are expensive, and both are very costefficient. i mean, spirit visage costs 2800 gold, but the effects are worth a whooping 3700 gold. thats incredibly costefficient. not even counting the passive. and same goes for spirit, which costs 2000 (hella cheap), and is worth 2500 without both passives. in fact, the build is one of warwicks strengths, as he is effective with just building tanky, for which very costefficient and cheap items exist.
