Heartsteel Warwick Build

General

1. You play Heartsteel Warwick.
2. You rush Heartsteel #1.
3. You are gonna have tons of HP.
4. You build items that scale and/or benefit from HP stacking.
• And you build Armor and MR tanky items, depending on the situation and adapting to the enemy team.

General

1. You rush Heartsteel #1 unless it is going to be hard to proc it - they are all ranged and just poke you. Then you start slow with Guardian's Horn instead.

Item Order

1. Item Order after Heartsteel is flexible. You need to see what you need in particular game:
• Get Overlord's Bloodmail for more damage and AD.
• Get Warmog's Armor as anti-poke item (helps you stay in lane) and for some sweet HP.
• Get Unending Despair, if there are prolonged fights in which you can stay near enemies (or enemies near you). The items gets better, the more HP you get.
• Get various Armor and/or MR items to counter enemy team.
• Get Titanic Hydra for more fun , more damage and some survivability.

Items

1. Sundered Sky is very good damage item for this build (as #2-#4 depending on the game). It scales off your HP (so Grasp, Heartsteel, Overgrowth). It gives damage and pretty good sustain in fights. Remember to switch targets to maximize the effect!
2. Guardian's Horn is a surprisingly good item for its price. You can keep it for a very long time (or even have it as 6th item).

Runes

1. Second Wind scales off with your HP, so it is going to be powerful sustain rune. You can use it by purposefully triggering it by letting enemies poke you a little or walking over some harmful spells.
2. Triumph is better (heal + gold), but if you want to have easier time with your mana, go Presence of the Mind.

During game

1. Your main damage and power comes from auto attacks - Grasp of the Undying, Heartsteel
2. This is auto attack oriented Warwick build, so do it! Especially if running with Titanic Hydra and Sundered Sky as well.
3. You can prioritize switching between champions in the fight, just to farm more Heartsteel procs.
4. You need to adapt your items to the game. Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. They heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
5. Remember to consume your Heartsteel procs!
6. Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!

Sustain

1. You heal from your Eternal Hunger (Passive) (while below 50% of maximum health) as well as with Jaws of the Beast (Q). Use it for sustain and while low.
2. If you are not planning on going in or peeling, you can use Primal Howl (E) damage reduction to reduce poke damage.

Jaws of the Beast (Q)

1. You can hold Jaws of the Beast (Q) to stick to your target. During that, you get displacement immunity and you can follow them through dashes, blinks, Flashes and portals!
2. You can use Jaws of the Beast (Q) to close the gap between you and your target. Just Q minion, hold it and you will leap behind.
3. You can use Jaws of the Beast (Q) to escape - use it on minion or target further down to escape.
4. You appear behind your target if you hold Jaws of the Beast (Q) fully. Hold only halfway to stay next to them instead.
5. Spam Jaws of the Beast (Q) even if you are about to die - it has a slight delay and can sometimes still trigger mid-death animation for a 1-for-1 trade.

Blood Hunt (W)

1. Press Blood Hunt (W) before a fight to gain bonus attack speed against the first enemy in range, regardless of their HP.
2. You can use Blood Hunt (W) to detect enemies hiding in the bush or even invisible ones that try to sneak on you, your team or your Nexus!
3. Your team can't see your blood trail, so ping enemies to inform your team.

Primal Howl (E)

1. Press Primal Howl (E) in the middle of a fight and let it run out automatically unless you want to fear a key target.
2. Use Primal Howl (E) right before enemy crowd control hits to reduce incoming damage - it will still fear enemies even if you are CC’d.
3. Release Primal Howl (E) early to fear enemies into your team or to cancel someone’s escape.

Infinite Duress (R)

1. You can keep and use Infinite Duress (R) for escape.
2. R gives you crowd control immunity during leap.
3. R leap distance scales with your movement speed.
4. After landing Infinite Duress (R), all enemies around your target are automatically feared if Primal Howl (E) is active.
5. Hover over the ulted target and hold Jaws of the Beast (Q) - when Infinite Duress (R) ends, you’ll follow any flash or dash the enemy makes.

Warwick combos

1. Primal Howl (E) + Infinite Duress (R) Combo - land R while E is active to fear surrounding enemies and reduce incoming damage.
2. Main combo: Blood Hunt (W) + Primal Howl (E) + optionally Flash + hold Jaws of the Beast (Q) + Primal Howl (E) + Infinite Duress (R) - locks target in CC for 2.5s and guarantees your R hit.

Riot

1. Follow your Blood Hunt trails to low health enemy champions.
2. Infinite Duress (R)'s distance scales with any Move Speed you gain, even from ally buffs and summoner spells.
3. Jaws of the Beast (Q) will follow enemies who run, dash or teleport if you keep the button held down.
