Warwick needs a hotfix

Take a balanced champion that sits at 50% win rate (old warwick) and then

  • Buff his dueling potential
  • Buff his chasing
  • Increase his healing
  • Give him global presence
  • Reduce his mana costs
  • Let him trigger his blood scent at MAX with a press of a button
  • Give him another form of CC
  • Give him a dash
  • Give him an escape
  • Make his Q follow dashes
  • Give him damage reduction

Surprise, surprise !!! Turns out Warwick is broken now. Who would've guessed when the only compensation he received for all these massive buffs was "wellp, his ulti is now a skillshot"

And then you will have people on these boards and Reddit swearing how Warwick and Sion are balanced & fair champions.

Nerf his damage reduction early game, I understand why he needs it late game but early game it's just an overkill, nerf his fear duration during the early game, and nerf the range on his global scent in the early game, so that he can't move up and down the map with a perma ghost.

inb4 "It's the keystone!" , "Its his mains playing him!", etc etc

you can skip to 50 second to see me (the support lux at 25% hp when Warwick has the highest speed boost available) kite his ass...

also.. ww had TWO cloud drags in that video which is the only reason i even needed to use as much as i did.

This "Warwick is the most balanced rework ever" circle jerk opinion is the honestly one of the dumbest things this community has ever come up with. People have actually deluded themselves into thinking that soloing drags as part of an initial clear at level 3 or being immune to counter jungling as a jungler is "healthy gameplay."

When Warwick's ban rate goes up after this patch has been out long enough(and it definitely will) Riot will finally do something about how strong he is at every elo let alone how much of a pub stomp champion he is. Then after Warwick finally gets dealt with everyone on the boards will pretend like they knew he was too strong all along and didn't go along with that same stupid circle jerk.

oh look, the thing everyone does to make something look broken but you can apply it to literally any champion in the game even the weakest champions in the game which means that it's a completely pointless thing to do... do not list "strengths" or "what changed" without anything else since i can do that with champions like Fiddlesticks Aatrox Lucian Quinn Swain Akali Kled Kindred and you would not even be able to determine who is actually broken and who isn't since just saying what a champion is good at or what changed about them in a positive way means very little in the grand scheme of things

Warwick is broken but he doesn't need a hotfix.

He is not breaking the game as hard like the time when he was old Weedwick and abused the living hell out of item 1419

Right now he is just over tuned and should be address but not instantly.
