Warwick's W movespeed being out of combat only is incredibly counterintuitive

It's really weird that WW's W gives no movespeed in combat. You have the ability to run at insane speeds when you're approaching but as soon as anything hits you or you hit someone you slow down to a crawl. As a result WW's W makes it incredibly easy to end up in situations that will get you killed and makes his ability to chase down low HP opponents actually fairly bad compared to champions with consistent movement options, especially compared to the old iteration where WW was legitimately one of the best champions for cleaning up stragglers in the game. It's really counter to WW's identity.
