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 Wukong

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade after his W

    Trade after Warrior Trickster (W): it's his best escape, and it has a 22 to 18 second cooldown.

  2. Ignore the still clone

    When Warrior Trickster (W) turns him invisible, ignore the figure standing still: that's the clone, and the real Wukong just dashed off to the side.

  3. Spread out from your allies

    When he has Cyclone (R), spread out from your allies: he spins in the middle of your team and knocks every nearby enemy into the air, twice.

  4. Escape after his second Cyclone

    If you have a way to escape, wait for his second Cyclone (R) to end: the spell can be recast once, and each spin knocks nearby enemies into the air again.
