Champion.gg - Warwick Jungle Stats, Builds, Runes, Masteries and Counters

53% winrate champion across pretty much all of season 8. Does anyone else think he needs nerfs?

-He has massive sustain in the jungle so he can do early ganks while other junglers aren't able to remain as healthy -He can pretty much 1v1 anyone who he can autoattack consistently -His kit is foolproof when it comes to invading the enemy jungle because he know when they are low and where they are. -He is extremely hard to kite because of his Q, and his movement speed, as well as his ultimate -his ultimate is hard to land from a distance, but he has so much movement speed that he can just walk up and ult you at point-blank -he doesn't seem to fall off lategame, even though he has such an impact earlygame -he can solo dragon pre-6

Don't get me wrong. I like the rework, making warwick useful without his ultimate was a good idea In my opinion. But hes too impactful. Maybe decrease his movementspeed or his sustain in the jungle early. He doesn't seem to have any weaknesses. I think that the winrate speaks for itself however.

He's good early and can snowball, but if he doesn't snowball he's not super effective. The problem why it feels bad is because people don't respect he's on the map. They take trades that will put them below 50% health without deep wards, then get ran down by Warwick's w passive.

That point stands for any jungler. Any jungler can exploit a poorly executed trade. Warwick is op because poorly executed trades nearly always results in 1 kill (or 2 in botlane). His kit, objectively, contains much more than any other jungler in the game. Warwick can roam around the map quickly, impacting multiple lanes in a short span of time, then go and solo dragon or herald with very little risk of being caught out. If he is caught out, he out sustains any 1v1 scenario and has reliable escapes for almost every matchup (fear+flash or just fear & run away, get o.o.c. ms, etc.)
