Hmm it seems like SV and some WW in IPL are rushing FM after Wriggles. I suppose it isn't that different from someone like Shyvanna grabbing FM early for some CC just WW doesn't go FM atmas. So it seems unnecessary to rush the health component that comes with FM.

The AAA top laner that played today went chalice > wits end > FM I believe. However he was lanign against a Vlad in a double AP comp. It was very effective though. He might have even had a spirit visage thrown in there... I can't recall.

It almost feels unfair how convenient it is for WW to itemize resists without sacrificing anything. Heavy AD? Wriggles, Frozen Heart, Randuins. Heavy AP? Chalice, Wits, Spirit visage and which negatron item fits best at the time, all seem viable.

I dunno, I suppose the armor heavy build is true for most top laners, I guess there are just a lot of items that provide MR that seem to suit WW really well.

And I can't see how WW beats irelia. Your q damage gets healed up so fast haha.

If you look at it this way, during trades you heal up a decent amount attacking them and since irelia does true damage you know health is the only way to counter that aside from not getting hit. (Frozen/randuins)


I feel like warwick is meant to win the lane by out harassing with his Q in lane, since he heals and harasses, and trades decently. The combination of sustain+insane trading counters that in lane which irelia and udyr are best at.

I think WW comes out ahead in every right click and see what happens fight post-wriggle's + wit's, but his engagement/disengagement is pretty poor. I think WW vs. Udyr/Irelia should be freefarm lanes that are more or less decided by jungler ganks, but he will 100% lose either of these lanes via non-wriggle's builds or anything that tries to heavily lean on his Q.

Well let's throw this here.

How can WW deal with Yorick? Yorick just outharrasses WW sustain and he's screwed as soon as he runs out of mana(which happens pretty fast) and needs to b back to base. I'm thinking Chalice would work somewhat because it gives you basically infinite mana, but it feels retarded to rush that vs Yorick who does mostly physical dmg. Another idea is to rush Glacial and then basically use the extra armor and manapool for some sustain and B to base each time you run out of mana. However in both cases WW is going to get significantly outfarmed by Yorick.

What do? Also how about masteries? At least 10 in DEF is imo absolutely necessary because -4 dmg from minions is mandatory vs Yorick, but what apart from that? And which runes? I'd go armor quint armor yellow mres blue and probably aspd red or maybe AD red for lasthitting(feels stupid though).

Thoughts?

14/15/1, open cloth, get wriggle's, get wit's, never let him near creeps again.

people are still way too attached to the chalice and tank out theory to playing lanewick. just get wit's and wriggle's and right click on people.

Alright, guess I would'nt know when nobody goes wriggles on lanewick for some reason.

Well, as I said before, Udyr and Irelia both have repeatable burst with strong disengage that lets them come out ahead in trades with WW, but their issues vs. him are that they have to disengage and back off after their CDs and wear him down via that, which, with wriggle's and his Q as they disengage ends up not being that much damage per burst cycle. At the same time, WW has a hard time sticking to them if he ever starts getting ahead, so it tends to just be back and forth matchups where ultimately not a whole hell of a lot happens.

Oh, I wanted to ask: Thoughts on HoG and/or Philo on Jungle WW (or even lanewick if he can get away with it).

I figure in general wriggles would provide similar if not greater returns considering the increase in jungling speed. And WW's early game isn't that shit hot, so there's no need to gimp him further. But damn, I love me dem gp5 items.

I feel like randuins and shurelias are things I'd like to get on WW anyway. But I'm probably just saying that to blind myself from how much they would make him suck early game.

Maybe just one? It can be my xmas AAAAND birthday present, pretty please?

Sure. Wriggles->Hog->Wits is a build that I actually use quite a bit. Id shy away from philo just because he doesnt really need the health or mana regen, but hog is fine. IMO you probably are gonna want either Hog or Phage, which you get is up to you.

why do I bother writing guides if people don't read them?

I say in the guide that HoG is usually my next item after wriggles... sigh...

Philo is a waste though, really no need for it on him and reverie isn't that great on him as all he really likes off of it are the CDR and the active.

Are there any lanes where you can skip wriggles and instead use that money for vamp scepter + phage?

What do you guys recommend when get to super-late game or you are quite fed?
Played a ranked game today where I go for a CDR build, I got Frozen Heat, Wits, Wriggle,Visage, Merc then I manage to dominate. Got 4k gold at that point. Not an one side game though. Often we got 2 left or 1 left after exchanges.
Apart from GA I don't know what to buy, I end up selling my Visage and wriggle for a Bloodthrister, a GA, and thornmail.

Ideal final 6 item build is probably something like:
Wit's
Trinity
Bloodrazor
Frozen Heart
GA
Mercs
+triple elixir.

At least IMO. I know a lot of people would criticize the lack of HP in the build, but I really don't think WW needs that much HP with 34-40% CDR with his Q.

Thanks alot Mog!!
You still get Razor in a CDR build? I agree that WW doesn't need HP since late game you have like 300 armor and your Q can sustain you well enough. Tri-force seems nice, will get in next time I got fed .
But is Visage still needed late game, if you only have Frozen <3 as your CDR you are no where near 40% reduction.

Well, basically I'm saying I'd do:
Wriggle's
Wit's
Triforce
Frozen Heart
GA
Mercs
then pump elixers and then upgrade Wriggle's to BR if I ever got that much money.

With blue elixir + Frozen Heart + Offensive CDR Mastery, you're at 34%. If you're specced 9/21/0 instead, you'll be capped.

Hmm. Bit different from where I go.

Wriggles, Wits, Mallet, Randuins, Frozen, Boots.

I suppose switching omen for GA is an option when someone else on my team gets it, but that rarely ever happens.

I just think WW with just Wit's + Mercs is asking to get blown up by APs. Having GA as a focus deterrent + MRes seems more valuable to me, but if they're triple AD and you can freely ult their AP, Omen > GA.

Hmm, I havent had that problem. Could be that I just havent run into it yet, or the health boost from FM and Randuins gives me enough to survive the burst and I can lifesteal it up from there.

Then again though, I rarely end up in position to eat burst when playing ww because I just stand back until the initiation has already gone down and I can fully isolate someone.
