Warwick’s passive is the “Insatiable Hunger” and ensures that Warwick’s autoattacks deal additional magic damage. If Warwick’s health drops below 50%, he also heals himself for the same amount of additional damage that his passive deals. If his health drops below 25%, this healing increases to 250% of the damage caused by the passive. Warwick can therefore particularly shine in close duels when he becomes stronger and stronger as the battle progresses and heals himself.

At level 1, take the Q “Fang” with Warwick. When activated, Warwick leaps forward and bites his target, dealing damage based on their maximum health and healing himself for a portion of the damage dealt. This ability also triggers on-hit effects, but cannot critically hit. You can also hold down Q for longer and Warwick will jump behind his target. If the target moves during this time using a dash, flash and blink, Warwick will follow them. You can therefore use your Q to prevent your opponent from successfully escaping if you use it at the right time. As the cooldown of the Q is not reduced by additional skill points, you maximize it second.

At level 2, you skill your W “Blood Hunt” as Warwick, which consists of a passive and an active part. The passive ensures that Warwick can scent enemies with less than 50% health and find them through a blood trail, even if they are out of your sight. When Warwick moves towards a marked enemy, he gains bonus movement speed and additional attack speed. These bonuses are increased by 250% against targets with less than 20% health, making Warwick very effective at taking out downed enemies. The W’s active ensures that Warwick can scent all enemies for a short time and gains the passive effects of the W for 8 seconds against the next enemy, regardless of their health. Warwick can only activate this ability outside of combat, and as long as he is not scenting enemies, the ability wears off twice as quickly. The W is a very powerful tool for generating catches and creating outnumbered situations. Due to the very high cooldown of the active and its significant reduction with additional ability points, maximize the W first.

At level 3, you complete your basic skills with the E “Primal Scream”. When activated, Warwick takes reduced damage for 2.5 seconds. When the ability ends or is reactivated, Warwick howls and puts all nearby enemies in fear for 1 second so that they flee from him. The E thus gives you some extra tankiness and a CC with which you can hit multiple enemies. Since it does no damage, it is maximized last.

At level 6, 11 and 16 you level up Warwick’s ultimate ability “Furious Rage”. When activated, Warwick will jump in the selected direction and suppress the first champion he collides with for 1.5 seconds. The range of the jump scales with Warwick’s movement speed. He also attacks the suppressed champion 3 times, dealing magic damage and healing himself for the same amount of damage dealt. This ability triggers on-hit effects 3 times and, like the Q, cannot critically hit. Combined with the rest of his abilities, this ult is perfect for taking out a single target.

Combo [W – E – AA – Q (held) – E – AA – R] : This is pretty much the only combo you use on Warwick: You start by activating your W so that you get running speed in the direction of the opponent. When you’re just in front of the enemy, activate your E and autoattack them once, then immediately do your Q, which you hold down to get behind the enemy. (This still works even if the opponent flashes away, as you can chase the opponent with your Q while holding it down). As soon as you are behind the opponent, reactivate your E so that the opponent can be armed into your team. While the opponent is still armed, make as many autoattacks on them as possible and use your ultimate just before the fear expires.
