Playing as Warwick

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Hold your bite

    Hold Jaws of the Beast (Q) to latch onto your target: you follow all their movement, dashes included, then leap behind them.

  2. Tank, then fear

    Cast Primal Howl (E) in the middle of the fight: you take less damage, then the howl fears nearby enemies. Recast it to fear sooner.

  3. Leap onto their carry

    Cast Infinite Duress (R) on their carry: you suppress the first champion hit and heal for all the damage dealt. Your move speed lengthens the leap.

  4. Follow the trail of the wounded

    Follow the Blood Hunt (W) trails: you sense champions below 50% health and gain speed toward them, three times more below 25%.

Playing against Jarvan IV

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Step out of his flag's line

    As soon as he plants Demacian Standard (E), step out of the line between him and the flag: Dragon Strike (Q) pulls him to it and knocks anyone in his path into the air.

  2. Punish him after his combo

    Punish him after his flag-and-lance combo: without the flag, he has no dash to get out, and Demacian Standard (E) has a 12 to 10 second cooldown.

  3. Save a way out of his arena

    If you have a way over walls, save it for Cataclysm (R): the arena can't be crossed on foot and locks you in with him while it lasts.
