Lycanthrope: Vampires ain't got nuthin on this wolf!

Introduction

LYCANTHROPE IS TOO OP FOR YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!

Tis all.

Pros:
+ Amazing farming ability with Summon Wolves
+ Jungling at level 1
+ Early Roshan
+ With his ultimate, Shapeshift, can reach maximum movement speed (escape anyone?)
+ Low cooldown ultimate, allowing one to abuse the skill in long lasting team fights.
+ When Summon Wolves reaches level 4, pets are permanently invisible, great for scouting the battlefield and preventing ganks
+ Global damage buff for all teammates and controlled units with Howl
+ Powerful pusher (more on this later..)

Cons:
- Realllly item dependent
- Yea, thats the only con LOL!

Jungling Items

Ring of Basilius:

Code:

ALL jungling heroes who can control creeps MUST purchase this item. I dont care what other guides say about getting Quelling Blade or some other ****, this item is mandatory in keeping your wolves alive in addition to supplying you with constant mana. Not only is it useful for its armor and mana regeneration, it is one of the components of Vladimir's Offering, a core item on Lycanthrope.

Clarity:
Code:

Just in case you eff up and lose your dogs to some OP neutrals early in your jungling phase.
