Warwick Build Guide by StarOwl

Story

Warwick counted himself amongst the most powerful and revered men in his home city-state of Zaun. Over the course of his infamous career as an alchemist, Warwick won many honors for his craft, not the least of which was a lucrative offer for service in the Noxian military during their campaigns against Ionia. Sequestered in his labs far from the front lines, Warwick and his apprentice Singed toiled relentlessly to manufacture all manner of appalling concoctions for the Noxian army. So potent was his art that even the greatest of Ionia's healers - under the leadership of the Starchild Soraka - struggled to combat the poisons and chemical weapons generated by his despicable mind. Warwick's reign of terror grew so horrific that his very name became a curse in the eyes of his Ionian foes, and they began referring to him only as ''The Deathmaker.''

But even one under the protection of the Noxian High Command is not wholly beyond the reach of retribution. For as Soraka strode across the myriad of death and destruction left in the wake of one of Warwick's chemical attacks, her heart finally gave way. She called down the wrath of the cosmos on Warwick, wishing that his form should mirror the cruelty in his heart - a curse that would come at the price of her aspiring divinity. Within his laboratory, a terrible thirst took hold over Warwick. As his apprentice looked on in horror, Warwick threw open the doors to his bastion and sprinted off toward parts unknown, a bloodcurdling howling marking his passage. He had become a werewolf; a wild, murderous beast. Today, the Blood Hunter fights for Noxus within the League of Legends... thankful of the curse that his now-mortal enemy bestowed upon him.

"The rage of the beast now complements his predatory spirit." - Singed, the Mad Chemist, upon witnessing his master's transformation

Summoner Spells

For Summoner Spells I always take Garrison and Ghost.

Promote Great for a 1 vs. 1 at the start of the game and to push a lane. Garrison This is a must in my opinion. Great defensive/offensive spell. Ghost For mobility around the map. Ghost + Map speed boost + Blood Scent = Any place any time. Great for saving Turrets.

Starting items

Build 1 Boots of mobility This is to deny the top turret for the other team. Kindlegem This is to start building Spirit Visage. Build 2 Coming up.

Core items

These items are a necessity in almost every match you play.

Build 1

Spirit Visage This is the item that lets you get away buy not buying additional lifesteal. Plus it has nice health and magic resist. Kitae's Bloodrazor Nice way to take out tank. Works great with your ultimate.

_____

Ionic Spark An item that every DPS should have. Every fourth attack deals 100 magic damage to 4 targets. Build 2
