Kai's guide to AMC in 3 different lanes. Carry, Mid, and Solo lane.
With AMC and really any hunter you can go a crit build, however I feel like a straight up power/pen build favors him a little better. So with AMC you are getting bonus attack speed from. your hives so I feel that going mages blessing can benefit his early much more than going hunters blessing. On him as well I also think rushing transcendence is viable. Really all depends on if you want the extra ability damage for clear and the extra MP5.
Also, AMC is the only hunter I would advise going talaria boots on. You might be thinking he wouldn't need it with his speed he gets from the hives, however unlike other hunters he has no hard CC, only a slow. So by going talarias coupled with the speed from his hive and the slow of his 3 there are times when you might seem uncatchable and it can force other players to commit their own escapes to engage onto you.
Mage's Blessing
+10 Bonus Ability Damage +10 Physical Power +30 Magical Power +2 MP5 Per 10% Missing Mana ROLE QUEST: MID Kill or Assist Lane Minions or Enemy gods to gain stacks. Lane Minions are worth 1 Stack and Enemy gods are worth 5 Stacks. At 75 Stacks Mage's Blessing Evolves, gaining 10% Cooldown Reduction.
Y10 Transcendence
PASSIVE - You permanently gain 15 Mana per Stack, and receive 5 Stacks for a god kill, and 1 Stack for a minion kill (max. 50 stacks). You gain Physical Power equal to 2% of your Maximum Mana. At 50 stacks this item Evolves, gaining 10% Cooldown Reduction.
Talaria Boots
PASSIVE - You gain +20% additional Movement Speed after leaving the Fountain. This effect lasts 7s.
*Asi
PASSIVE - If you drop below 35% Health, you gain an additional 25% Physical Lifesteal for 5 seconds. Can only occur once every 15 seconds.
The Executioner
PASSIVE - Basic Attacks against an enemy reduce your target's Physical Protection by 7% for 3 seconds (max. 4 Stacks).
Qin's Sais
PASSIVE - On Basic Attack hits, deal Physical Damage equal to 1.5% of the target's maximum Health. If the target has over 2000 Health, the bonus damage scales up. This effect reaches a maximum of 6% of the targets Maximum Health at 2750 Health.
Titan's Bane
PASSIVE - Your first ability cast gains 20% Physical Penetration. This can only occur once every 5 seconds.
Fail-not
PASSIVE - When your Ultimate ability has finished casting, your next ability or basic attack within 8s that damages an enemy god marks them, increasing the chance you and your allies can land a Critical Strike by 20% for 10 seconds. This can only occur once every 45 seconds.
So AMC mid is pretty similar to carry with only that raw pen and power. This is why I think going for a last item heart seeker makes the most sense as well as your ultimate will hit like a truck as well as your 2 and your 3 with them both being on 7 second cool downs. If you need the anti heal just swap out beat stick for crusher and decide if you want crusher or jotunns later. As for soul eater early in the build, when it comes down to soul eater versus asi I still think asi is the way to go. Asi gives all the stats you want and the fact that it gives pen brings your kill potential higher earlier in the game.

Titan's Bane

Now for the fun lane. SOLO AMC. This might seem like a troll but against the right matchup this can be such an annoying and effective pick on the right team. This build and pick is all about being super incredibly annoying to deal with and punishing. When it comes to the last item I think frost bound with this build and AMC is absolutey hilarious as most people unless committing escapes will not be able to catch you. Runeforged is also a good item to go as you will pretty much always have the effect up as his 3 is on a low cool down and its a straight up damage increase. Some more annoying options too are mantle as if you are focus dived being able to proc that stun and get away quickly is so annoying.
