How to play it
DO
Cancel his ult
His R suppresses a priority target — interrupt it with your Q or bodyblock so he can't land it.
Bramble Vest spike
Once Bramble Vest is up you can look to fight him and build a lead despite his healing.
Don't fight level 1
He beats you down hard at level 1 — give him room and only start contesting around level 2.
DON'T
Never try to hard-burst him — most Warwicks run Barrier and heal it back before you finish.
