Early game and ganks

Your early is not the best one as a jungler, assasins have more pressure and damage, but you still have a great 1v1 + good ganks with your 3. This build is more based on late game, since you are going to be an off tank, a 1v1 beast. Gank when you have your 3 ready, if not, you will only be able to damage the enemy and apply pressure on the lane. Trust your baasic attacks, this build is meant to be for dueling. Farm and always try to increase your passive buffs, each time you have an abbility, use it. You need to exploit that passive early, thats the strenght of Mulan

How to use your ultimate + How to play in TF

Maybe you think its a good starting ultimate for a TF, but remember you are not the tank in this case. Let others start the fight and try using your ult to save your allies and to secure kills. Your 3rd hit with the ult (the arrow) its pretty much useless, you should ult forward and then hit the knockup from behind, enemies will now have 2 flanks to pay attention to, here is when you enter and harass enemies from behind, if someone tries to escape, you chase him with your 3. If a someone focus you, you have better 1v1 stats. If your allies are falling back, remember to use your blink + your movement speed.

Why Mulan JG and not Solo?

You are more likely to get your passive faster in JG than in Solo lane, also, there are better options in Solo when it comes to duelers. Mulan JG is a fun pick, you have a good set of abbilities and mechanics. IMO you should play and try it, you obviously wont get the same pressure like a rata does, but trust me, once you get confident enought you can fight anyone at the jungle, and survive.

I like Shifter's Shield and Ancile on Mulan, I think bruiser Warrior Jungles are great, however I do have some concerns with this build:

First of all the relic Choice Horrific Emblem - just go Blink - Beads / Blink - Aegis / Beads - Aegis etc. you should have enough lockdown in your kit to get kills without the Horrific.

Also; What's the thought process behind Golden Blade and Stone Cutting Sword?
Me personally, if I was playing Mulan Jungle I think I'd build something like Warrior Tabi The Crusher Hydra's Lament before transferring into the bruiser build with items like Shifter's Shield etc.

You're just not going to be doing enough damage with this build in my opinion

I added Golden Blade to clean faster the jungle, and the Stone Cutting Swordto fight tanks. Remember the aim of this build is the basic attack 1v1, not really the skill damage, although those are good items with mulan, maybe i can replace the golden blade with hydras lament

I can see what you're aiming for, however some things to remember: Mulan's clear with her 1 is actually pretty nice, so Golden Blade really isn't needed, also Stone Cutting Sword only reduces 30 physical prots at max stacks, so as the game moves on and the tanks become actual tanks, you just aren't going to be doing anything to them, I don't recommend the AA based build on Mulan, however it's your game and you get to play however you like; so if you are still set on the AA route then you're going to need some % Pen so consider adding The Executioner - Berserker's Shield - Dominance
You're also going to need a DPS item so add a Qin's Sais

Only criticism is she has almost no cdr with this build but it's pretty solid.
