Amumu, the Sad Mummy, is a champion in the popular online game League of Legends. Known for his melancholic nature and tragic backstory, Amumu has captured the hearts of players worldwide. One of his most beloved skins is Re-Gifted Amumu, which adds a festive twist to his gloomy appearance.
Released on December 14, 2010, Re-Gifted Amumu is a holiday-themed skin that perfectly captures the spirit of gift-giving. This skin is available for purchase in the in-game store for 975 RP, allowing players to transform Amumu into a jolly and festive character during the holiday season.
Re-Gifted Amumu features several unique visual changes that make it stand out from his default appearance. Amumu is adorned with a Santa hat, a red scarf, and a tattered green coat. His bandages are replaced with colorful ribbons, and he carries a sack full of presents on his back. With each step, presents and snowflakes trail behind him, leaving a trail of holiday cheer.
Not only does Re-Gifted Amumu have a visually appealing design, but it also adds a touch of holiday magic to his abilities. When using his Q ability, Bandage Toss, Amumu throws a gift-wrapped bandage at his enemies, symbolizing the act of unwrapping a present. His W ability, Despair, creates a festive aura around him, with snowflakes falling gently to the ground. Additionally, his ultimate ability, Curse of the Sad Mummy, summons a circle of presents that explode upon impact, stunning enemies caught within.
Amumu's story is a tragic one, fitting for a champion known as the Sad Mummy. According to his lore, Amumu was once a young boy who lived in Shurima. Cursed with eternal loneliness, he wandered the desert in search of companionship. However, anyone who approached him would be consumed by his curse, turning to dust upon contact. Amumu's touch brought death and despair, leaving him isolated and tormented.
Amumu's past in the game reflects his sorrowful nature. As a champion, he excels in crowd control and disruption, making him a valuable asset in team fights. His Q ability, Bandage Toss, allows him to engage enemies from a distance, stunning them and setting up kills for his team. His W ability, Despair, deals damage over time to enemies around him, while also reducing their magic resistance. This ability makes Amumu a formidable tank, capable of soaking up damage and disrupting the enemy team's positioning.
Amumu's E ability, Tantrum, grants him damage reduction and deals area-of-effect damage to nearby enemies. This ability is particularly useful when clearing jungle camps or engaging in team fights, as it allows Amumu to deal damage to multiple targets while mitigating incoming damage. Finally, his ultimate ability, Curse of the Sad Mummy, is a game-changer. It immobilizes all nearby enemies, leaving them vulnerable to follow-up attacks from Amumu and his teammates.
Amumu's strengths lie in his ability to initiate team fights and lock down high-priority targets. His crowd control abilities make him a nightmare for squishy champions, as he can easily catch them out of position and set up kills for his team. Additionally, his tankiness allows him to absorb a significant amount of damage, making him an excellent frontline champion.
However, Amumu also has his weaknesses. He is highly reliant on landing his Q ability, Bandage Toss, to engage effectively. If he misses this skillshot, his ability to initiate fights is significantly diminished. Additionally, Amumu's early game can be challenging, as he is relatively weak before he acquires his core items. Skilled opponents may take advantage of this vulnerability and invade his jungle or deny him farm.
In conclusion, Re-Gifted Amumu is a delightful skin that brings holiday cheer to the League of Legends universe. With its festive design and unique ability effects, this skin is a must-have for Amumu enthusiasts and those looking to spread some holiday spirit on the Rift. Whether you're a fan of Amumu's melancholic story or simply enjoy playing as a mummy throwing gift-wrapped bandages, Re-Gifted Amumu is a skin that is sure to bring joy to your League of Legends experience.

Lore:
Legend claims that Amumu is a lonely and melancholy soul from ancient Shurima, roaming the world in search of a friend. Doomed by an ancient curse to remain alone forever, his touch is death, his affection ruin. Those who claim to have seen him describe a living cadaver, small in stature and wrapped in creeping bandages. Amumu has inspired myths, songs, and folklore told and retold for generations—such that it is impossible to separate truth from fiction.
Ally tips:
Amumu is highly dependent on teammates, so try laning with your friends for maximum effectiveness. Cooldown Reduction on Amumu is very strong, but it's often difficult to itemize for it. Grab the Golem buff whenever possible to gain Cooldown Reduction without sacrificing stats. Despair is very effective against other tanks, so make sure you're in range of opponents with the highest Health.
Enemy tips:
Avoid bunching up with other allies when Amumu has his ultimate available.Erratic movement, or hiding behind creep waves can make it difficult for Amumu to instigate a fight with Bandage Toss.Amumu's Despair makes purchasing primarily Health items a risky proposition.
