Welcome

I'm AaronTheRai and I like to play Mercury in the Jungle. He is, in my opinion, one of the better Junglers. If you're able to hit his dash and the auto when the enemy is launched into the air, you can destroy people's entire health bars.

Pros and Cons of Mercury

Pros: Fast clearing and very high damage with crits and Stone Cutting online

Cons: Easily Countered by beads and Midgardian Mail
