Wukong Build Guide (Top)
Wukong trades like a con artist: Nimbus Strike in, Crushing Blow, Decoy out while the clone eats the answer. At six, a well-timed Cyclone flips entire teamfights - especially with allies who follow the knockup.
Summoner Spells


Runes
9x Mark of Attack Damage (+1 Attack Damage)
9x Seal of Armor (+1 Armor)
9x Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist (+0.2 Magic Resist per level (+3.6 at champion level 18))
3x Quintessence of Attack Damage (+2.25 Attack Damage)
Attack damage feeds the combo, armor seals win bruiser trades, scaling magic resist covers the mid game.

Wukong Build Guide (Jungle)
Jungle Wukong ganks with a built-in flash and leaves with a built-in decoy: Nimbus Strike clears fast enough, and post-six every skirmish near his Cyclone is a coin flip the enemy called wrong.
