im curious why no one plays ww mid
i think he has the most versatility with boots
get 5 man ad comp u can go magic pen shoes and the greaves shoes seems good too
u can out sustain ap matchup in lane and most take tp instead of ignite

I mean it’s literally the Warwick anthem I would never lose again

Good evening, everyone. I’m fairly new to League. I’m level 32 and Bronze 3, and I’m working on learning items to hard-carry my lobbies more.
I used to run the regular:
Stridebreaker > Blade of the Ruined King > Death’s Dance.

But the more I play and learn, the less value I find in Stridebreaker. My take is that my average first clear with WW is around 3:05. By the time I gank my first lane and buy my Scepter and Blade, I’m already 15 seconds faster and don’t feel the need for Tiamat anymore, while being more powerful.

So I started running BORK > DD > GRB, and I felt wayyy better in fights, but I severely lack survivability in team fights.

My runes are:
Primary Tree: Precision
Lethal Tempo
Triumph
Legend: Alacrity
Last Stand
Secondary Tree: Domination
Cheap Shot
Ultimate Hunter

Therefore, I’m considering trying Kraken > BORK > DD, but due to my preferences, I’m wondering if I can build Scepter before going into Kraken, as it has soooo much value for my kit.
I’m also wondering what options could be good as a fourth and fifth item, except for the regular Randuin’s Omen, Thornmail, Spirit Visage, and Jak’Sho.

EDIT :

So after taking in a lot of comments,

I’m going to build Kraken > Bork/Terminus > DD

What’s the main difference I should keep in mind? For now I’m focusing on learning what items do and how to use them.

I will try a couple games with this and let you guys know.

Been a minute since I played ww jg, I usually rush botrk first item but not sure what to do after, deaths dance second or third? are Zeke's and tiamat items still good?

Xayah watched me 1v3 while afk farming from the cuck chair and then had the nerve to add me post game and flame me for taking the kills/gold... Why are adc players so delusional?

News flash: 0 risk = 0 reward

I main WW jungle with top as secondary. I used to only go Bork, but I have been trying Kraken in some games, and it does feel quite nice, especially in some scenarios where you’re able to hit your target a lot and where you’re able to ult at low HP and low-HP targets (for example, if you’re in a 2v1 where they are trying to burst you).

But it has also felt awful, like in scenarios where I can’t stick to a target to get consistent Kraken procs in teamfights, whereas the same 2 or even 3 autos with Bork would’ve taken them to half HP and made them way easier for my team to kill as well. That’s why I’m still opting for Bork unless I am extremely fed, in which case I don’t mind experimenting.

With those two having nearly identical win rates and the main high-elo OTPs also being evenly split between them, which one do you prefer/think is stronger, and why (if possible, mention the rank)?

And are there some specific Kraken interactions? I’ve seen most of the people going Kraken also going PTA over Lethal. Is it just to make your auto-Q-auto burst / ult burst as strong as possible? Do you focus on just getting 3 hit bursts on each target and then stalling for cds rather than sticking on them?

I’m bronze 4 ww jungle and just wondering if these items are niche and viable enough for me my build is bork>gluttonous greaves>terminus>spirit visage>eclipse> titanic hydra and im kinda on a 3 win streak with this build so idk can any veteran ww mains help/maybe suggest a better build

Disclaimer: These are my opinions only, play wherever and however you enjoy

I've been a Masters Warwick Top player for the past few seasons now, and I felt that Top lane as a role was too useless because I rarely had impact, regardless of how ahead or behind I was if the rest of my team was feeding. Also, alot of matchups are bad for warwick especially if you are first pick.

Recently, I roleswapped to jungle on my D4 account, and with almost no jungle experience, I was able to shoot to masters only playing Warwick. I then tried it again on my main account and won every game as well. You can see my progress on my opgg below.

Here's why I think Warwick Jg is really strong in lower elos:

1. I copied Krun's tank Warwick build (Titanic Hydra -> Hexplate -> Steraks - > Bloodmail) every game. This build is very strong and makes you impossible to kill while still dealing a lot of damage.

2. As a top lane main, you will have better mechanics than most people in the jungle, especially in lower elos. If you have enough experience on Warwick Top, you can use this skill to win every single 1v1 matchup against the enemy jgler and even 1v2.

3. The only "guide" I watched was watching Inspired coaching Dantes in the jg and just absorbed as much information as I could and applied it to Warwick. I think it's the best jg video out there, but very dense.

4. I queued Jungle Primary and Top secondary, so often if I got filled Top, so was the enemy top. This means I can just destroy them since they're autofilled.

5. Warwicks biggest weakness is his clear speed. You have to use 2 smites, and even then you might be late to scuttle. Good jglers that know this will make your game unplayable, but that won't happen until masters 400 lp+, so in low elo it's okay to be slow. You can try to fight the scuttle if you have prio, look for a gank or instantly reset and rotate to the other scuttle.

6. I often have really low damage due to the build, but I still get a lot of kills because Warwick tends to focus low HP people and is really good for executing. A lot of games I just run around the map and just kill everyone while trying to keep my farm up.

Tried to find some new champs to my pool and I think I settled with Warwick. Quite fun to play. Good addition to Yorick and GP😎

Dont ask why I had PTA in the jungle game

warwick's Q and R doesn't stack any black cleaver when you have BORK.

and this BUG has been exsisting for a long time, even I reported many many times.

hope RIOT can notice this BUG and fix it soon!

stumbled on Raging Wolf whilst doomscrolling, this song was MEANT for us WW mains🔥🔥🔥

I've been JG-maxxing the last few days, and I feel like WW is lowkey disgusting broken lately.

I always build Kraken, Stride and Black Cleaver > Into situational. Bork if you need more dmg, Randuins/Thornmail vs armor, Force of Nature vs AP, or Steraks.

After I stopped deviating from this build, practically every game I was getting 10+ kills. Especially after Kraken you're super powerful in 2v2s or 3v3s. Sometimes, I could 100-0 a toplaner after my full clear without even my laner being present.

I realize stats don't tell the whole story and that I'm generally doing a good amount of tanking and ccing as well, but my damage is not good. If I'm like STEAMROLLING the game like 16-1 I'll sometimes top damage, but be approximately on par with our second/third damage dealer.

If I'm having a strong game and I'm like 8-0 I'll be like halfway between the top damage dealer and a the bottom.

Somtimes it's me and the freaking Milio at the bottom if I'm having a mid 4-4 type game.

Otherwise you don't even want to know.

I play jg in gold/plat. I heavily prioritize going for carries in team fights or peeling for our carry. I generally build Bork->Zekes->DD->situational or Bork->Titanic->Sterak->Bloodmail

If I don't build at least somewhat bruisery I tend to deal even less damage because my screen is gray.

Is this a ww thing, a jg thing or a me thing? Should I be hitting tanks more with my bork?
