Warwick has been out and reworked for quite a bit now, and honestly he is too oppressive. One of the highest win rates, one of the highest ban rates, his placement overall is also one of the highest. I recall when poppy got reworked, she was too strong, so she got gutted. And I mean gutted, I remember not being able to viably play her for a while. (This isn't to say I want ww gutted to the max, no champion should ever become unviable to the point of sadness) But let us just be real here, he is very oppressive and his build pattern is very tanky despite how much damage he does while also having sustain. It feels, overloaded in the sense that he can do too much

I see a 51% winrate http://champion.gg/champion/Warwick/Jungle

never found him to be too strong. He has clear counterplay and weaknesses now in my opinion. At least, much clearer than old warwick.

Not particularly because of how simple his kit is. He doesn't have much of a way to outplay you and his ultimate is his only gap closer that doesn't require him to already be in basically melee range. Also, if you dodge his ultimate especially, which has an incredibly small hitbox and is the easiest thing ever to dodge, it's pretty easy to kite him. Even his speed isn't able to keep up when an ADC is properly and effectively kiting, especially if he didn't get the target below half health with his ult. His weakness is pretty simple to Master Yi's: kite and group. If you're against a strong Warwick, never be alone. I've had games as him where I would jump and get what looked like a good catch to me, but then the enemy team had a Tristana that was in fog of war nearby and a Nocturne who had ult up. Both would instantly be on me while my initial target would just flee and I would be caught out and basically die a horrible death with no way to get out of the situation I had gotten myself into. Yes, if you're in just a brute force basic attack war, you'll lose if you're melee or not moving because of his healing and the fact that he gets attack speed when you're under half health and even more when you're under 25%, even if you pile onto him in some cases. He's basically a diver-juggernaut hybrid, similar to Shyvana. His ultimate gives him an out to the main counterplay because it's a dash (and possibly a pretty huge range one, too), but afterwards, he has a juggernaut's style. You let him hit you and he'll kill you, but it's pretty easy to just make it impossible for him to hit you.

Did you have to pause before you just accepted that you were going to lie or did it just come out naturally?

No one understands himy fully yet and how to counter him. Everyone own him b3cauw he has been around forever so yeah he's going to get a lot of play when it's new rework.
