How to play against Warwick

Lane and teamfight rules that hold regardless of your pick.

In lane and in teamfights

  1. Keep trades short before anti-heal or strong disengage is available. Hold crowd control until he follows with Q or R so he cannot dodge it.
  2. Hit him once when he is chasing a low-health ally to cancel his movement speed. Collapse after his fear is spent instead of fighting into it.
  3. Bait his R onto a prepared frontline target and peel immediately. Focus him after the suppression ends, before his passive healing restarts the fight.

Where Warwick is weak

Exploit these in draft and in lane.

  • Warwick is built around chasing wounded targets, so healthy grouped teams deny the movement speed that starts picks.
  • Warwick's healing rewards extended brawls, making anti-heal, burst focus, and clean disengage much stronger than chip damage.
