Warwick (Idea for making his Ult more dynamic)
I had this idea to make Warwick a little more dynamic both pre 6 and afterwards. This isn't intended as a full rework. Just something to make WW more fun to play until that fateful day eventually does come.
First step, mana, get rid of it.
Next, give him a bar similar to Aatrox's blood well. Lets call it......."fury". Have it fill whenever WW kills jungle creeps or minions in lane. Jungle creeps would fill it at a much higher rate as they are less plentiful than lane minions.
Then there's actually changing WW's ult. First, with the changes I will suggest here, I believe it should be available immediately. Like Karma. WW pre 6 is no threat at all and is a bore to play as.
Make the new "fury" bar be the battery for WW's ult. Say his "fury" is only half full, but top lane is looking ripe for a gank. He can go and expend his "fury" to use his ult, but with a shorter duration. If he ults with full "fury", he gets the full duration. Make his ult only usable when he has at least half of his "fury" filled.
This should make Warwick less of a "farm all game and only gank when your ult is up" to "farm for gauge, gank, farm for gauge, gank, etc..."
Hope this gets some approval from the community. I actually emailed Riot asking about a WW rework and while they said they couldn't give me any specific details at the time, they said I should try and post some ideas of my own on the forums. Nothing would make me happier than seeing this get noticed by some Riot employees.
