As someone who has played the new warwick on PBE, he is balanced for the most part and is a lot of fun. He is a diver; that is to say he is a fighter-type champion with a non-escape assassination pattern.

His ult being able to be body blocked is already a great change - the fact it does less damage (it only procs on-hits 3 times instead of 5) is also a thing. This version of warwick feels good for the most part, it definitely keeps everything warwick did and modernizes it with much more counterplay AND outplay potential.

Hey, since you played him on PBE, did they remove his AP scaling?

they have. His Q scales with AD - and it has no base damage. His Q and R still do magic damage though.

Ugh, AP-Wolf was one of my favorite builds :(

Not that it really matters, since the only AP item worth building on him was Hextech Gunblade.

Have they mentioned who the designer for new WW is?

His ult sounds like the kit Zenon had penciled a few years ago.

Hey, at least poppy exists right? She'll stop that ult real quick.

But lets just hope that his ult isn't some uninterpretable bullshit, because if its not then you can always just cc him and watch him die instantly to your whole team.

It's the laning phase I'm most worried about. How the hell do you respond to something like that on your own or if you have no cc?

You can't. If you're melee, he always has the advantage in trades. If you're DPS, he just stomps you with superior sustain. If you're burst, he just uses his Howl and fucks you over.

[Innate] Passive: Basically a "gated" form of Warlord's Bloodlust except it isn't dependent on how much damage Warwick deals.

[Q] Jaws of the Beast: More mobility creep that they're passing off as "stickiness".

[W] Blood Hunt: More mobility creep that they're passing off as "stickiness". Bonus points if it's a global reveal.

[E] Primal Howl: Another ultimate-power-level ability on a bullshit cooldown.

[R]: More mobility creep (I'm becoming a broken record here) that is essentially is a copy-paste of what made Rengar's ult a problem - Except you are legitimately not allowed to react.

Just fucking keep him nerfed and unplayable instead of nerfed and unplayable and toxic.
