I played him on the PBE and honestly, Best rework i ever seen, Maybe because i really like Warwick? idk but it's a lot more fun than old Warwick he is more op now more fun to play, better in teamwork and Ganks, more options in his play-style, Honestly Thank you a lot Riot you made Warwick a fantastic Champion now. I am still waiting forward to See galio's full rework, i am hype i am positive and i really would appreciate he Becomes a monster Champion very op in late game and a lot of fun in his playstyle too.

Old Warwick will always be better

With that being said, this reworked version definitely has "counterplay" now, I guess. Hopefully it's not another rework that ends up failed in the long-term

Thankfully it isn't dead on arrival the instant the spotlight was shown like our good o' "Lord of Death".

why is old warwick better?

Mostro GalloJan 17, 20171 votes

What it boils down to is his reliability and his linear playstyle/performance. His current kit is simple, yet powerful. Aside from his high damage, targetable cc ult and the immense gold value on his team wide attack speed steroid, he becomes a borderline unstoppable juggernaut with only an attack speed item (preferably BotRK) and a few tank items.

His E (with a few minor constraints) also grants valuable vision, and can be toggled on or off, which facilitates ganking.

Old Warwick does more for his team, and the actual player's performance has little influence on this matter. I can see the new Warwick being a relatively feast or famine Champion, but I'll wait until he's officially released before I make any more concrete judgements.

Old warwick is only strong in level 6 +, New warwick is strong from level 1 + , New one is definitely better, besides his new Q applies on hit effect which is why i enjoyed it way more. It feels like he is totally a tank killer, Juggernaut and Murderer jungler now. No more boring wolf man who only ganks at 6.

Pre level 6 effective ganks is what this game needs less of, though.

His new optimal build is much more costly, too. You can't get away with just 1 or 2 attackspeed/on hit items on the reworked version as much as you can on the live version; you'll actually need AD (or AP lol) to do some damage. Also, the bulk of his damage is magic. Wits end has good synergy with BoRK and his ult; and not so much synergy with the Trinity Force and the tiamat family (two very expensive items).
