Warwick Rework Incoming?

Valor Bot··35 votes·3,273 views

An interesting Warwick-related file has been spotted by Surrender@20 on the PBE today:

While not too revealing, there is a lone "WarwickRework.bin" file in today's build. No text diffs or anything too interesting to pull from it.

PLEASE IF YOU REWORK MY WARWICK DONT CHANGE HIS E AT LEAST! I have mained Warwick since i started to playing (which was around Bard's Realise, i havent been playing for too long) I USE HIM IN MOST OF MY RANKED GAMES IF I CAN BECAUSe actually im not sure, i basically carry games by getting my team fed. If you do a rework like Poppys, i woouldnt mind too much actually, as i played a lot of pre rework poppy and now she is actually really good. She wont be the same without her tanky-assassin playstyleand getting runeglaive, IE, BOTRK and then wrecking in games.

I dont see him outdueling anyone He is a combination of a worse vi with a worse yi he basicaly got only 2 skills (Q-R) and a bunch of steroids.

If I remember he's one of the originals thus outdated and the heavy nerfing with a certain item synergy that was then nerfed afterward didn't help.

Oh well he's outdated and could use a rework. I hope he's included in the assassin patch though since we have a suppressor in bruisers(skarner), marksmen(urgot), mid(Malz) we could use an assassin suppressor :O but riot did say having no retaliation in an assassin was unhealthy thus silence was removed, so maybe they'll make him a support(god forbid) or just leave him jng.

i would like to see him as a regenerator tank kinda like old sions R and a kit going with it

EcchiOtakuTM1 votes

That's mundo o.o

Myozthirirn1 votes

my bad, i meant life stealer Some kind of thing that tanks5 people as long as he can keep attacking to stal life back but dies in 1 second if he gets disabled.

EcchiOtakuTM1 votes

LS clutch tanks are alot of bruisers, and heavily aatrox, now if only aatrox got a slight buff like what I had in mind.....

Although at this point those with in-kit sustain and devourer fit the bill.

It's probably nothing to concern ourselves with. Last time Riot talked about it, they weren't actively working on Warwick, could be just some files from some internal testing that got uploaded to the PBE unintentionally, like the changes to Alistar's Headbutt a while ago.

Maybe it'll be after Yorick?

OMG PLEASSSSSSSSSSSSE!!!!!!!!#@%$#$%

I have been dying for Warwick to get a rework ever since I started playing in Season 3. Yes, even then he looked like shit xD. I hope it happens before the end of the year! [zombie-nunu-hearts]

It also could just be a prank. I know game developers like Digital Extreme's Warframe like to put misleading information for people like Moobeat to find.

I doubt it's anything.One,the next rework is Taric.Two,after him the next big VGU is Yorick & that likely won't be till later this year. I know Warwick is one of a few champs who needs a complete overhaul,but it's not his turn yet.I doubt it's anything. And know,I don't believe they would drop a surprise rework.They always mentioned when they were reworking a champ beforehand.

warwickrework.bin, right next to recylcle.bin if you know what I mean :P

Solidair31 votes

Likely nothing. We know Taric is next. So probably just some prelim stuff

MachineCaliber1 votes

No but seriously, are they reworking/nerfing all junglers now? First xin, then shyv in pbe, now this? Do they want to make junglers useless again or what e.O

SuicideJ2 votes

This is my concern... And the person that is gonna do his rework scares me..

Celeste Benal1 votes

He is on the schedule for a rework later this year iirc.

IMHO, they should make Warwick's E his passive. He automatically gets the MS buff and vision when near a low health enemy. They could then make his E a life steal on demand ability for X seconds or something along that line. This would make him thematically better as a hunter of enemy champions.

Well taric is already next in line. Looks like you guys will have to wait
