What I'd like to see for a Warwick update

So there has been a lot of talk about the poppy and taric reworks (totally excited for both) and on their potential release schedule, but I haven't heard anything about my favorite jungler Warwick. Don't get me wrong, Warwick in my opinion is still in a good spot this season, despite his almost impossible pre-lvl 6 ganks. Depending on q timings and how hard my leash is I can farm the jungle easily without backing at all in a jungle that most others struggle through. By late game, a devourer, BOTRK, and a few defensive items makes Warwick a menace and a solo/squishies worst nightmare.

His sustain, suppress, and enemy true sight is what makes him iconic. Warwick is a fairly simple champion to play and whatever update happens to him I would like that aspect to stay the same.

What a reworked Warwick is in my mind.

  • Warwicks E Blood Scent should replace his current passive Eternal thirst.

  • Warwicks Q is in a great spot and shouldn't be changed maybe slight mana cost reduction for early game.

  • His W should be changed into a passive/active ability with Eternal thirst as his new W passive but with AP scaling on the damage. The W active should be a flat Attack damage boost with maybe a slowing effect or stacking same target effect.

  • Warwicks E should be a gap closing ability like a damage dash or an aoe cone slow similar to a cho'gath W.

  • Warwicks R is in a good spot and shouldn't be changed

Warwicks current model has aged well but could use an update, and I'm also fine with a completely new base model as long as its badass. The only skins in my opinion that need any significant changes are the Tundra Hunter a white/gold chroma and Firefang a red chroma with a fire effect. So much more thematically could be done with these. Like more obsidian armor on his firefang skin and an updated fire particle for his back.

Candidate for juggernaut update?

I don't think that Blood Scent should replace his passive. Being able to toggle it on and off so that enemies can't see you coming in for a gank until you get close enough is nice.

His ultimate would have to be changed a bit if he was given these new moves. He would have too much available.
