Am I the only one noticing how overloaded Warwick's kit is?

I get that it keeps, or even expands on, "that original Warwick feel"...

But I just know that they'll have to hotfix him if he's going to get released in this state.

I'm worried about his mobility. That R range on low health targets is ridiculous.

It has nothing to do with their low health, but his movement speed. It just so happens that his movement speed bonus from blood scent is tripled on low health targets. But it only works as out of combat speed. The mobi boot homeguard bloodscent ults are going to be insane tho. I wonder if there is some sort of cap on the range because I could imagine him with mobi boots, homeguard and 2 speed buffs from his allies ulting ridiculously far.

Here's an unrealistic situation of how far, theoretically, Warwick's ult could jump.

It won't be that much of an issue, I don't think. Warwick is taking a niche as a predator that specializes in cleaning up and finishing off those that are wounded. It's a cool and thematic niche to have, and not many champions fill it, not like Warwick will.

And it's difficult to use reliably at long ranges, but the fact that it can hit at those ranges is enough reason for concern.

It's new and shiny, nobody cares about balance till a week later as usual, if anything people will claim it's weak, then QQ a few days later when they realize it is broken.
