@Riot: Are there any forthcoming plans to buff or rework Warwick's kit?

Unflattering as it may sound, Warwick is currently a pretty bad champion. Warwick was a B tier toplaner and jungler at the start of the season but got nerfed to the ground because devourers and skirmishers were OP on him and when those two items were nerfed, Warwick was never compensated. Riot are there any plans to revisit Warwick's kit in the near future? I'd love to be able to play Warwick again in ranked without being flamed by my teammates for "gimping the team with a turd champion".

He has a rework in the works. The ideas for it are floating around somewhere, but I am too lazy to look it up since it was on the old forums.

I think he will come after gp,mf,poppy,yorick,darius,ryze (maybe), and 20 others.

I think they should swap his E and his passive. Give him the MS automatically that scales with level and his lifesteal being able to scale up with points.

The problem with ww is his ganking potential is crap pre 6 and post 6 . his ult is good however the damage is crap unless you build straight ad on him

The problem with Warwick is the same as any other hyper sustain-based Champion. They just become toxic the moment you take them out of the jungle and into a lane.

I think they're taking proper time with the rework to allow Warwick to keep his life steal niche without turning him into the new top lane meta.
