[GAMEPLAY] New Warwick E gives him cc immunity

Mathuran··4 votes·4,648 views

I play a lot the new Warwick Warwick in these days, and play against him too of course, and i notice a little problem with his E ability, Primal Howl. The ability says "Warwick reduces all incoming damage for up to 2.5 seconds, or until Primal Howl is reactivated." but happens a couple of time that this bonus also gives him immunity to crowd control effect, like during the leap of his R Infinity Duress.

For example, during a game with Warwick, in early game, i dived a Wukong with my E activated, he pop his ultimate spell (Cyclone) and i didn't take the knock-up, neither when i loss my E buff and he was still spinning. In the same way, in another game, while i was running away from bottom lane, i was hit by the enemy Thresh E (Flay) with my Primal Howl activated, but i have not been dragged to him and i didn't even been slowed. Today i was playing against a Warwick instead, I was Singed, and happens 3 times that, during his E buff, i could not flip him behind my back with my Fling ability.

My friend told me they got the same problem sometime, Is this an intentional thing, but not written in the ability description or it's actually a Bug?

Thank you for your time!

You should reread his Q tool tip

"If Jaws of the Beast is held, Warwick will lock his teeth into his target and use them to swing around to their far side. WARWICK is Disarm to act while swinging around his target, and will move wherever they move until he jumps off."

DISARM means that he "silence" himself during the lounge (so he can't flash for example) not that he can't be DISABLE

Go into your client, click on Warwick and read his Q tooltip. It litterally says he's immune to displacements. (knockups, knockbacks etc)

yeah but i'm not talking about his Q, (wich prevent disable ONLY WHILE IS LOUNGING like almost any target gap-close, like Wukong E for example), I'm talking about his E, that makes him immune to cc, without doing any other ability for no current reason

You said you dove him, your Q likely made you immune to the knockup, not your E.

Yeah but read the other cases dude, what about the Vayne one? And btw there are multiple videos on YT and Reddit documenting this, look it up. It's likely a bug that let's you keep the immunity after using q, that's why it's not consistent.

1st - I expose 3 different cases, not just that dive

2nd - In this cases i SPECIFICALLY WROTE that i was doing nothing more that standing or running with my E ability activated (i didn't use my Q to dive, never wrote about it)

3rd - I'm not asking for solution or explanation, this is happening without other condition, just with the E spell, to know if it is a bug that need to be fixed

Feel free to record it from your replay (we have those now, in case you missed it.), I'll eat my words if you prove this true, but I do doubt it.

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/119216524 At 1:41:14 Warwick blocks Rivens 3rd Q knock-up without beeing attached to Riven. One time i could walk through the Veigar stun with my E activated. Seems to be a bug.

Ww can't be disabled during his ULT

that's why i'm talking about a issue with his E spell...not with his ultimate
