How is WW not getting nerfed?

Sure you could argue he was perfectly balanced before the runes rework but if you can go and gut GP because you made a rune that made him super strong why is this chicken fucker allowed to abuse press the attack and sit at a 54-55% winrate for SEVERAL patches and not get looked at? He is starting to make quite a large appearance even in diamond-challenger, which means his "simplistic kit" is so strong that it is out weighing other high tier champions because he is just purely too strong. You nerfed shyv and twitch because you were buffing Press the Attack (and twitch doesnt even fucking use it) and left ww untouched. What is the logic here?

because GP could poke you from safety while WW has to jump into the team fight and pray his team helps. Also didn't they nerf shyvana, because her Q was broken as hell with press the attack? That even if I just went some random tank build and got the 40% CDR it became 3 second CDR while 2 auto attacks would reduce it to up again. I dont' know any WW that actually builds Frozen mallet outside of them being extremely far ahead while it is a core item for shyv. WW is strong yes, but it's not that hard to beat him either. It's exactly like how people complain about Singed is too hard to beat yet item 3194 is right there. While also for WW item 3075 and or item 3110 is right there.

you mean like how he can solo drag as soon as it comes up three times in a row? giving the enemy team a massive gold bonus unless you patrol dragon as soon as it come up and every 2 minutes after. not that such a thing would neuter your own jungle clear or gank ability. he can just ignore his jungle and still steamroll the enemy team. i won't claim to be a good jungler, but soloing drag at level 2 is certainly a problem that should be addressed.

The grievous wound buff on morello, and the fact we have three heal killing items, that's what balances him out. He's like Aatrox, jump in, heal and tank for long as possible, and hope your team kills people. Not to mention if he gets cced without his E on, he's not that tanky to that of a Shyvana or Sejuani. His winrate is high because of the rune, sure, but its the fact people neglect to buy heal killing if he's the only person that heals is where the issue is. Also GP isn't completely gutted, the reason why they did that barrel nerf and q mana cost nerf was because people were abusing it. A very good GP wont find these nerfs to amount to anything, he's still got a boss ass late game.
