Warwick Tips and Tricks
- Warwick is a very easy jungler to play and one of the best champions for climbing out of low rank divisions due to the huge map pressure he can provide.
- Holding Jaws of the Beast allows Warwick to deny CC and dash towards the enemy champion if they Flash, Blink or Dash away— a lot of players don't know this as they only press the Q keybind without actually holding it!
- A great strategy is to run at an enemy, activate Primal Howl and hit them with Jaws of the Beast while dragging it behind them, this will make Warwick dash behind the enemy. Reactivating Primal Howl instantly fears the enemy away from Warwick, towards your team.
- Warwick's area of effect jungle clear is not very good without a Tiamat so prioritize ganking until you can afford one.
- The range of Infinite Duress increases with Warwick's movement speed, use this to your advantage by activating Blood Hunt before a gank to gain a burst of bonus movement speed.

Warwick Jungle Pathing Guide
Jungle Pathing represents the choices jungle players make in regards to when and where to gank, invade or just path towards. It includes how camps and buffs are cleared between ganks, anticipating counterganks, and spotting opportunities for invading. Effective pathing requires deep understanding of your champion's abilities, their interactions, and how both team compositions play into those choices.
Full clear with a Blue Buff start
The recommended jungle path for Warwick is a quick three-camp clear starting at Blue Sentinel with Jaws of the Beast at level one. At level two, unlock Blood Hunt for increased attack speed on low-health targets, then clear Blue Sentinel and Gromp to reach level three and unlock Primal Howl for his bread and butter ganking skill. From here you have to analyze the lane states, if the enemy midlaner overextends, gank to pick up a free kill, otherwise go ahead and clear the Red Buff side, then duel the enemy jungler at Rift Scuttler & gank one of the nearby lanes.
Warwick has many jungle pathing variants for the first clear and stats show that the most successful ones tend to be full clears with an early midlane gank sprinkled in. For full-on level three pressure, you can go Red into Raptors into Blue/Gromp for a quick level three gank on Bot/Top (depending on your side) and then also gank Mid lane.
