although i have been able to climb very easily as support,

my main will also be Nidalee, however since the gutting of her AND RekSai . i have been in a rough spot for jungle.. with 1500 games on nid i can still do well on her, but rek'sai is just boring to play now. and until her rework goes live i need a tanky AD to take her place..

so i have been learning Warwick (in unranked obviously)

as for build path i am getting early item 3077 into t2 boots and cinderhulk

after that depending on if they are AD or AP heavy i get item 3742 or item 3065

eventually i finish item 3748

but wen i notice they have big tank on thier team like Malphite i want to build something like item 3153 ..

but i am also considering swapping out cinder-hulk for bloodrazor

if i see the enemy team is tank heavy but I'm also the only tank on my team what should i build to both be our tank and cut through theirs?

i also really want to get more CDR in my build.

If you're the only frontliner, then I wouldn't bother building to cut through the enemy frontline. You surely have other teammates that can provide the damage.

You could try building a guinsoos and bloodrazer vs a tanky team, that should be the most dps possible with 2 offensive items on WW.

Go CoTC and full tank, dps ww just isnt really good you do enough damage with base % health shred on a low CD and titanic on top of that.

This page has the highest win rate runes, masteries, and item builds for Warwick, however your build and stuff are obviously situational.

If both teams have a big tank, going Bloodrazor and off-tank can be pretty decent with him. However, I would typically recommend Cinderhulk and Titanic Hydra, and then either full tank or tank heavy. Remember that your Q does like 10% max health and applies on-hit effects.

For ganks, if the person you're ganking isn't Blood Hunted, always activate W as you're starting to move in. If your ult is up, try to hit it on them to engage, and if your laner has reliable CC, let them get it off first to make it easier to hit. After your ultimate ends, put up your E and immediately pop the fear. Use your Q and basic attacks to finish the target off. If you're pre-6 or your ult is down, do the same thing, but without ulting them first. Ghost is also good to pop, if it's up (and I highly recommend ghost over flash, partly because the extra movement speed will give you more range on your ult).

My build on him is typically item 1041 + item 1006 -> item 3077 -> item 1413 -> item 3748 -> item 3742 and then optional items item 3078 item 3025 item 3026 item 3065 item 3102 item 3075 item 3143, pretty much general tank items. You can also go item 3091 for magic resist and on-hit, and boots are your choice between item 3006 item 3009 item 3111 item 3047.
