Fixing Warwick's Q

Disclaimer: this is beating a dead horse.

Warwick

Warwick's Q mechanics are a big part of what makes him clunky, for me and probably other people. Warwick's Q should similarly to Talon's Q, Xin's E, etc. So there are two parts to the ability: following flashes/dashes, and jumping behind the enemy (like Leona's E).

Edit: better idea

It can be a two-part spell. 2 separate casts is not as smooth as 1, but at least the results will be predictable each time.

First cast: marks a target and resets AA. If cast at range, Warwick also dashes to the target. Second cast: Warwick leaps behind and bites the target with Jaws of the Beast. Can be re-cast immediately by double tapping Q (like Lux's E). The mark: Warwick's next attack on the marked target bites them with Jaws of the Beast, but with no leap. Attacking a different target removes the mark. The mark can last for a short time, like 1 second, and be invisible.

Poor old Warwick needs some love.

That's still clunky, and self-cast wouldn't work for it targeting an enemy.

Just make it simple. One activation = bite, second activation within 0.1s - jump behind/follow.

Nah his Q is very intuitive once you get used to it. All riot needs to do is fix the numerous bugs on his abilities. Currently the ONLY ability not bugged on Warwick is his E- Primal Fear.

Ww needs some works on his kit tbh

First let's fix his W. The blood trail needs to properly speed you up in the right direction. Second, the AS should be instant once the target falls below half health. As it works now you can AA twice after they fall below half health before the AS kicks in.

Q heals do not register instantly once cast. There have been many times that I bite a target low health only to die before the heal actuates.

Ult needs some love as well. I should not ult the enemy behind me when I am facing away from them. Riot took away WW point and click suppression so I shouldn't be punished for using it yo engage or disengage properly.

There are more bugs but I will stop there.
