Never really jungle before, but I bought Warwick a while ago.
Does he really need to jungle, cause I'm not a fan of jungling, but I will if needed too.

No he doesn't NEED to but if you're not jungling with him you're using him ineffectively.

Tbh he's not a terrible laner. He's good harass and survivability with his Q, IAS with his W, fairly useless E but a ballin' ultimate.

But he's such a fantastic jungler and such a great ganker coming out of the jungle that you're wasting a lot by not jungling with him. He can counter-jungle and has one of the fastest and most reliable neutral creep clears in the game. He leaves the jungle at very high health and can take multiple possible starting routes, meaning that it's hard for your opponents to predict where you are at any given time.

So I wouldn't say that you're playing Warwick ineffectively as a laner - I'd say that you're wasting his potential.

Warwick is a much better counter-jungler. If she comes in after a revive to gank you while you have blue buff on (which you really should) your cooldowns should be good enough that you can eat her (lol) all day (double lol)

Nah, Warwick can still jungle easily at that low of a summoner level. He's probably one of the only junglers that can do it without runes, masteries, or Heal.

He's a great jungler. He doesn't need to lane but the added experience to you and the guy who solo lanes out weigh the non jungling option.

Its not 100% needed to jungle with Warwick, if you know what you're doing then it gives you a good level boost, and counts as a solo lane. And gives your team three level 6s, when the enemy team will only have one (Warwick - Jungle (6), Warwick's Lane Partner Solo'ing Top/Bot - Level 6 + Mid level 6)

In hindsight, it gives your team a great advantage level wise, if your team knows what they are doing then they can use this advantage to push/win team fights.
