#What would happen if Camille happened to encounter Warwick while on a mission in Zaun?

Both Camille and Warwick are the last people you want after you in the dual city-states of Piltover and Zaun. Lore-wise they are very similar despite being from two very different cities.

Camille Ferros ensures the Piltover machine and its Zaunite underbelly runs smoothly while Warwick runs rampant in the streets of Zaun preying on criminals who terrorize the city’s depths. Nevertheless, both of their bodies have undergone massive transformations either through Hextech Technology or DNA-Splicing leaving them to preforms similar feats.

Oh man.

This hits close to home. We had to answer this very question for ourselves on a project that unfortunately got scrapped. Our team has an opinion of exactly what happens when these two meet. This was probably one of the most fun meetings we've ever had at work.

Thanks for the nostalgia trip. :)

I dont care, Mundo goes where he pleases.

If they can throw literally anything in their power into the ring, then Camille wins for me, no doubt. She is basically in charge of her house, which is one of the biggest and most influential in Piltover. If necessary, she could probably mobilise a little army to fight him, she has scientists at her side to design weapons against him and so on.

If it's basically a surprise encounter, then it's closer. I would still slightly give Camille the edge, she is highly intelligent and has great tools and experience, she could possibly find a way to abuse Warwicks bestialic nature.

I dont doubt that camille would win the initial bout but she doesnt have full knowledge to the extent of warwicks modifications and a big part of what makes warwick, warwick is his durability. I could absolutely see camille leave warwick with enough wounds that no mortal creature should still live, likely at the loss of one of her tools(her grappling hooks or her shield) because warwick is a "champion" in his own right and then getting taken by surprise when he pushes past it and gets on top of her.

ultimately theyre both hunters in their own right and it could be as simple as who finds who first. Though even despite that id consider it more likely that warwick would walk away from a loss than camille would. Zaun is no place for an injured piltover elite to be.

My guess is that Camille would bail on the first fight if she happened across Warwick while on a different mission. He's irrelevant to her goals, and unless he's actively preventing her from accomplishing them there's no reason to waste time fighting him. Conversely, provided Warwick wasn't in a blood rage or had a bone to pick with Camille, he'd have no reason to chase her.

If they met for a second time - this time intentionally - Camille would likely come out ahead. Following the initial encounter, Camille would gain as much information about Warwick as possible and know exactly how to defeat him once it came to blows. Sure, Warwick is a tough opponent, but I think he's outmatched here. It's like fighting Batman if you give him prep time.

I like Camille more but my vote is Warwick. He has more brutal force, is faster, and unlike many, I don't forget the fact Warwick is not stupid. He is also intelligent. Funny people here acts like Warwick is complete beast.

Intelligence in many fight cases don't matter, especially when you are not prepared. A human wouldn't survive against a hyena just because human is more clever.

I love Camille more "Precision is the difference between a butcher, and a surgeon." Gotta love the wisdom that a robotic british accent can bring.

I'm quite sure that she would avoid him if given any choice in the matter at all.

I'd have to pick Camille. This is essentially a conflict between a precise and highly mobile individual used to out-thinking her opponents and a brute with feral cunning and raw strength on its side but a tendency to fall into a blind frenzy when the red mist descends. Failing any unfortunate accidents, one would have to presume that Camille could use her speed and easy access to vertical space to outmaneuver Warwick while landing attacks of opportunity until exhaustion, frustration or overwhelming bloodlust forced him to make a fatal error. She has no need to meet him in a head-on confrontation that isn't taking place on her terms and her altered physiology presumably means that she's more than capable waiting while out of his reach for extended periods of time.

Putting this on Warwick's turf might hand him something of an advantage, but then that really brings things back to my first point: Camille isn't going to fight someone unless she is the one in control and she's absolutely going to push that edge right to the hilt. The only real chance I can see Warwick having would either be thanks to a freak accident or Camille's sense of superiority leading her to under-estimate him and gift him an opening.

It largely depends on who finds who first. The longer Camille has to observe a foe, the better she can plan her attack. Give her enough time and she may very well figure out, say, that that chemtech thing on Warwick's back isn't just for enhancement. If Camille sees Warwick first, she can map out and/or predict his behavior and cut him to ribbons. Warwick is simply too simplistic; once you understand his behavior he's basically a wolf with no pack.

OTOH, If Warwick finds Camille first, then Camille has no time to plan and Warwick will tear her to shreds; lore-wise she's an assassin, not a frontline warrior. Now, Camille fans may argue (with justification) that Camille is an assassin and knows how to keep hidden. And she does; from PEOPLE and HEXTECH. Warwick hunts by smell, especially the scent of blood. But Camille doesn't necessarily know how good that sense of smell is and she certainly doesn't have much experience dealing with it (her primary prey - humans - rely on their sight and hearing FAR more than their sense of smell).
