A level-by-level game plan for Amumu vs Malphite.

Levels 1-2

Your clear order and first camp decide tempo — track the enemy jungler's likely path.

  • Amumu should soak poke and hold lane priority through durability, not even trades.
  • Malphite can soak your poke easily — don't waste resources trying to out-trade durability.
  • OP.GG data flags Malphite as a strong counter to Amumu in this role — expect them to look for early trades, so play a touch safer than usual.

Levels 3-5

First gank windows open. Prioritize lanes with a lead-friendly matchup and reliable CC.

  • Look for CC chains that let your jungler or teammates punish overextensions.
  • Watch for CC chains that set up their jungler or teammates — respect their engage range.

Level 6

Ultimates come online map-wide — expect the first real skirmishes around objectives.

  • Your ultimate usually turns you into a real engage or peel threat — use it on your terms.
  • Their ultimate usually enables a hard engage — keep an escape option up once it's available.

Levels 7-11

Objective control becomes the main scoreboard — track enemy jungler position at all times.

  • Front line for your team around objectives so your carries can output freely.
  • They'll front line for their team — focus their carries instead of the tank.

Levels 12-15

Your itemization decides whether you're a skirmisher, teamfighter, or split-push threat.

  • Tank items complete — you should be nearly unkillable while still landing your CC.
  • They become very hard to kill directly — punish their team instead of all-inning them.

Level 16+

Baron and late objectives decide the game — vision matters more than mechanics now.

  • You start most teamfights and decide their shape — landing your engage matters most.
  • Their engage decides the fight — respect flanks and don't clump up for an easy multi-CC.
