Warwickはダメージを吸収しチームにチャンスを作るJungleタンクだ。 これにより certain profiles に対して特に弱くなる。 逆に、profiles unable to exploit their weaknesses に対しては優位に立つ。
Olaf is a structural hard counter to Warwick because he shuts down your identity: you want long duels with sustain and, most importantly, you want to lock a target with R suppression. Olaf flips that plan—his ultimate makes him immune to CC, so you can’t stop him when he commits. In extended fights he thrives, and his consistent DPS matches your healing patterns well.
In the jungle this becomes very direct: he can contest camps, meet you at scuttles, and force you off tempo even if you planned a gank. If you commit and he pops Ragnarok, your R becomes either useless or a disguised escape tool. He also gains huge value around objectives where your control should shine—he can run through frontlines and create chaos with little counterplay from you.
Switch logic: avoid direct duels while his ult is available and play for tempo instead. Key timing: level 5 (first Ragnarok) and objective windows; either make a play before he has R, or play cross-map when R is up. Concrete decision: if Olaf shows on one side and you don’t have clear numbers advantage, prefer cross-map value (reverse invade, dragon/herald depending side) rather than “testing” him in 1v1. Positioning: in fights, hold R for a target without CC immunity and use your kit to peel/zone instead of chasing Olaf.
Morgana is a functional hard counter to Warwick jungle because she breaks your execution plan: your R is meant to be a “suppress and kill” button. Black Shield removes that certainty. Even with clean play, a well-timed shield can make your engage sterile, and her Q punishes you the moment you expose yourself on entry.
On bot/mid ganks your success window gets much tighter: you can arrive fast, but if the target is shielded your R doesn’t lock, and you end up stranded in lane without a kill. In teamfights she can also zone you mentally—you hesitate to ult because you expect shield or CC to break tempo, and Warwick loses his finisher/initiator role.
Prioritize Black Shield timings, not random targets. Key timing: track shield cooldown and force a first exchange to remove it, then commit R afterward. Concrete decision: if Morgana holds shield specifically for your ult, swap targets—grab the unprotected carry or force a fight elsewhere. Positioning: approach ganks from an angle that lets you disengage if you get Q’d, and keep E for damage reduction while you exit.
Lee Sin is hard because he beats you where Warwick wants stability: early game and jungle tempo. Warwick shines when he can clear, take a prepared duel, and punish oversteps. Lee forces unprepared situations: early invades, fast skirmishes, and he has tools to escape even if you chase.
Practically, he can break your first cycle: stop you from finishing camps, steal a buff, or force a response when you wanted to gank. Even without dying, you lose time and arrive late to scuttle/objectives. In fights, his kick can also flip your value: you engage, he knocks you away or isolates an ally and reverses the trade.
Have an anti-invade plan from loading screen: early wards, read which lanes have prio, and choose a clear route that avoids being alone at the wrong timing. Key timing: first river/scuttle pass and levels 2–5 where he’s most threatening. Concrete decision: if you spot Lee on your side and your lanes lack prio, don’t “defend” a camp with your life—concede, take opposite camps, and return with information/vision. Positioning: in skirmishes, hold R to lock after he uses key mobility or to punish deep entry, not as your opener.
Kindred is hard because she hits Warwick on two painful axes: kiting and denying your finish. You love targets that panic and stay in range; a good Kindred keeps you at distance with dashes and autos. Most importantly, her ultimate can erase your kill moment, so your R/chase pattern loses value at the critical second.
In the jungle she can also bait you around marks: she forces you to choose between contesting (risky, because she drags you into open ground where she kites) or conceding (and she scales). In teamfights, your “jump-kill-reset” pattern becomes unreliable because she can drop ult, stall, then re-engage with tempo advantage.
Key is terrain discipline: don’t chase Kindred in the open without allied CC. Key timing: level 5 and objective fights where Lamb’s Respite decides everything; hold R for after the ult or to catch Kindred after she has dashed. Concrete decision: when she casts ult, switch goals for a moment—reposition to the edge, prepare to punish the exit, and peel/zone whoever steps out first. Pathing: favor ganks on CC lanes and fights in corridors where Kindred has less space.
Jarvan IV is hard because he forces a dictated fight. Warwick likes choosing targets and entering on timings where he can sustain and chase. Jarvan imposes engage, traps an area, and turns fights into fast executions: if you or your carry gets caught in Cataclysm, you must react instantly instead of running your plan.
Early, Jarvan has very reliable ganks and can snowball lanes before you create your own impact. Around objectives, his combo + ult creates a pocket where you can be burst before your healing matters. Even if you R a target, Jarvan can cut routes, trap you, or isolate an ally, lowering your classic chase value.
Shift your role: versus Jarvan you often play more counter-engage than initiator. Key timing: his early lane appearances (levels 2–5) and dragon/herald setups; place deep wards and be ready to respond rather than force. Concrete decision: if Jarvan shows top to gank, take value elsewhere immediately (dragon/counter-jungle) instead of arriving late. In fights, hold R to punish the isolated target after Cataclysm or to save your carry by suppressing the diver who commits.
Graves is unfavorable because he denies the sticky duel you want. He has range, burst from fog, and tools to break your tracking (Smoke Screen) and create distance. Warwick can win 1v1s, but Graves often chooses when and where they happen.
In the jungle, he clears fast and can beat you to timings, then punish you when you arrive second. On invades, if you chase without clear vision you can lose massive tempo or get outplayed by simple repositioning. In teamfights, he isn’t always the best R target because he can kite and force you to overextend.
Don’t play blind chase. Key timing: his clear resets and early item spikes (when burst becomes real); if you spot him on a camp, judge whether you arrive first or second and decide accordingly. Concrete decision: if Graves has lane prio and an invade is likely losing, do the opposite—gank a CC lane, force Flash, then convert that Flash into dragon/herald. Positioning: keep E to absorb his initial burst and use R when he has no dash/flash or when your team can chain CC.
Lillia is unfavorable because she turns your biggest strength (chasing) into a weakness. The more you follow, the more speed she stacks, pokes while running, then sleeps you right as you think you finally caught her. Warwick likes long contact fights; Lillia likes long ranged fights where you never truly connect.
In the jungle, she clears smoothly, takes space, and forces you to reveal. If you contest her in open ground, she kites you until you’re too low to continue. In teamfights, her R can break your entry: you engage, she stalls, and you wake up with no tempo.
Pick terrain: fight Lillia in corridors, not open space. Key timing: level 5 and objective fights—hold R to punish after she spends mobility/speed, or lock a different target before she sets up a sleep. Concrete decision: if you see her on a camp in open ground, don’t sprint after—take the opposite objective or gank a lane and force her to respond. Positioning: approach from angles that cut escape (behind via vision) rather than frontal lines that give her space.
Elise is unfavorable because she beats you on action tempo: very early ganks, strong dives, and she can build a lead before Warwick truly imposes his style. Your champion needs baseline stability; Elise creates instability everywhere.
In the jungle, you can end up chasing her ganks. Even if you duel well, if you arrive after the dive there’s no target and you lose rhythm. In skirmishes, cocoon can also break your entry and force E defensively rather than aggressively.
Play pre-emptive response: ward dive paths, read which lanes are vulnerable (pushed without Flash), and be there before she arrives. Key timing: levels 2–5 and first dragon—this is where she wants to snowball. Concrete decision: if Elise shows bot and you’re top side, don’t over-rotate; take herald/top counter-jungle and convert information into value. Positioning: in counter-ganks, don’t be first into cocoon—let your laner soak initial threat, then engage once cocoon is down.
Rammus is unfavorable because he makes you pay for how you win: hitting for a long time. Taunt forces bad autos, and his defensive reflect patterns reduce your trade value. You can beat him in the right context, but without help you can waste huge time trying to kill him.
In the jungle, he may not kill you outright, but he ruins your tempo: you meet, engage, then realize there’s no kill and you just lost 20 seconds. Around objectives, he’s also dangerous to your carries, and you may be forced to use R defensively to stop his engage rather than to pick a target.
Don’t make Rammus the objective—make him information. Key timing: his lane engages and objective setups—hold R to punish exposed carries or to stop his entry onto your ADC. Concrete decision: if you see him on a camp and he’s tanky, don’t tunnel; take the other side, secure vision, and force a play on a lane without taunt threat. Positioning: avoid being alone in his zone; if you contest him, do it with lane prio or with a mid that can follow.
Kha'Zix is a skill matchup because he plays isolation and burst, while you play extended duels. If you survive his first damage cycle, you can often turn it with sustain and chase. But if you’re alone, low, or without E, he can delete you before you get to “play.”
In the jungle, vision reading is decisive: Kha wants to surprise you between camps or punish you on an objective when you have no help. In fights, he hunts isolated carries; you can act as anti-assassin, but only if you’re in range at the right moment.
Pathing: avoid isolated routes without vision when he’s missing, and play closer to lanes that can move. Key timing: level 5 and his first item resets—his burst becomes truly lethal then. Concrete decision: if you know he’s on your side, don’t start a solo objective; ward, ping, and force him into a fight where an ally is nearby, then use R to lock him when he commits onto a target.
Vi is a skill matchup because it’s a contest of “who engages on whom.” She has reliable lock and can force early 2v2s, but Warwick can flip fights if Vi overcommits and you use E/R with discipline. It’s all about first target and cooldown order.
In the jungle, Vi can apply lane pressure early, especially into fragile lanes. In skirmishes, she wants to force your E defensively, then re-enter with a second wave. If you fall into that rhythm, you lose tempo.
Read her gank angles: if you see Vi leaning toward a lane, set up the counter-gank instead of doing one more camp. Key timing: level 5—her ult can decide objective fights. Concrete decision: when she ults your carry, your best play isn’t always to ignore it—use R on Vi or on the follow-up (mid/support) to break the chain, then chase once their engage tools are spent.
Xin Zhao is skill because his early is strong and he can force fights you didn’t choose, but Warwick can turn duels if you hold E and don’t get burst too fast. It’s a spacing matchup: Xin wants to stick and knock-up; you want to stall and punish when his resources are spent.
In the jungle, he can contest early scuttle and river skirmishes. If your lanes have prio you can punish; if your lanes are stuck under turret you can get trapped in a bad 2v2. Midgame, his ultimate can also protect his backline, so your R usage must be deliberate.
Pathing: avoid meeting him at the worst time (low HP between camps) and plan river timings with a lane that can move. Key timing: levels 3–5 and first objectives; if he owns river prio, choose cross-map instead of stubbornly fighting. Concrete decision: if Xin forces a fight and you lack backup, use E to absorb the first burst and disengage; re-enter later with R once he has spent dash/knock-up.
Master Yi is often favorable for Warwick because his plan is linear: run in and hit. You have the exact tools to punish that—damage reduction, fear to break DPS, and an R that locks him the moment he tries to enter. With clean play, you can stop Yi from getting resets in teamfights.
In the jungle, you can contest him early because he’s more fragile early. Around objectives, if Yi arrives late and tries to all-in your carry, you can remove him with clean control. The risk is letting him free-farm to his spike; but in pure duels before big items, you usually have the edge.
Key timing: watch his first item spikes and level 5; before he’s fully online, force plays on lanes and objectives. Concrete decision: if Yi shows opposite side, take an objective and cut his camps—Warwick converts pressure well. In fights, hold R for the moment he commits onto a valuable target, and use fear to break his auto timing right after his entry.
Amumu is generally favorable because you win small duels and can convert short skirmishes into extended chases. Amumu wants grouped engages; you can catch him in transit, force him to fight before he finds a perfect ult angle, and win on tempo.
In the jungle, you can often meet him and waste his time, especially with lane prio support. Around objectives he remains dangerous, but your R can also prevent a perfect ult by suppressing him at the right moment or punishing an overeager follow-up.
Key timing: level 5—respect his ult in objective fights, but don’t give him a free approach. Concrete decision: when Amumu signals an objective, position ahead of his path and force a trade before he groups. Positioning: don’t stack tightly with your team; play a slight flank so you can R Amumu or a carry without getting caught by multi-target engage.
Shyvana is often favorable because she wants time and objectives to become a threat, while Warwick excels at denying breathing room. You can meet her early, force her off camps, and convert pressure into dragons/tempo before she becomes permanently online in dragon form.
In the jungle, if you let her powerfarm uncontested she becomes hard to deal with later. But if you show up in her jungle and secure early objectives, you heavily reduce her win condition. She dislikes being forced into fights before spikes.
Key timing: before her level 5 and before she stacks too many items—this is when you play aggressively. Concrete decision: track her camps, invade when you have information and lanes can’t collapse, and prioritize first dragon with any support. In fights, your R can stop her from exiting safely or prevent her from reaching your backline when she commits in dragon form.

Warwickへの対策は、彼に勝てる相手を見つけるだけではありません。Warwickは主に、彼の戦闘パターンが崩れた時に負けます。彼は突撃し、接触を維持し、回復し、そしてターゲットが倒れるまで延長することを望みます。強力なカウンターは、彼が適切なターゲットに到達するのを阻止するか、彼の回復が効果を発揮するのを防ぐか、または彼のアルティメットがキルに繋がるのを止めるかのいずれかです。一部のジャングラーは彼に1v1を意識させ、他のジャングラーは彼をカイトしたり、彼がEを正しくタイミングを取る前に罰したりします。適切な適応は常に戦闘を避けることではありません。時には孤立したデュエルを拒否したり、数的有利を演じたり、Warwickをハンターではなくオブジェクトジャンガーに変えたりすることを意味します。
Warwickの難しいマッチアップは、しばしば一つの特徴を共有します。それは、彼が必要とする戦闘時間を奪うことです。OlafとTrundleは彼のデュエル能力に挑戦でき、GravesとLee Sinは機動力で彼のテンポを崩すことができ、JaxやWukongのようなブルーザーは、彼が視界の有利を欠いている場合にエントリーをより困難にします。Warwickはそれらのゲームで無駄ではありませんが、彼は回復で全ての戦闘に勝てるかのようにプレイするのをやめなければなりません。彼は視界で戦闘を準備し、重要なスペルが使われるのを待ち、そして彼のスマイト、回復、ゾーンコントロールがまだ重要であるオブジェクトを優先する必要があります。
これらのチャンピオンはWarwickにとって直接的な問題を引き起こします。なぜなら、彼らは必ずしも延長された戦闘でパニックにならないからです。Warwickは、相手が低くなりすぎて彼の追撃を発動させ、そして彼の回復に捕まることを好みます。しかし、このプロファイルに対しては、デュエルは彼に不利に転じることがあります。Olafはコントロールロジックの一部を無視でき、Trundleは直接的な交換で彼に勝て、そしてJaxは彼のエントリータイミングをはるかに不快にさせることができます。Warwickは弱いから負けるのではなく、彼の自然なアドバンテージがもはやユニークでなくなったから負けるのです。
How the champion adapts. Warwickは情報のない中立的なデュエルを避けるべきです。彼はカウンターガンクを探し、戦闘に二番目に到着し、またはこれらのチャンピオンを孤立した川ではなく、味方のレーン近くで戦うように強制すべきです。
Warwickは、戦闘がシンプルであることを望みます。1つのターゲット、1つのエントリー、接触、そして回復が引き継ぐ。モバイルジャングラーは、そのシーケンスをはるかに不安定にします。Gravesは距離を置いてアプローチを罰することができ、Lee SinはWarwickがリズムを設定する前にアクションを起こすことができ、そしてViはWarwickが最初のターゲットを選ぶのではない角度を強制できます。このマッチアップタイプは、主に、ワード、ローテーション、レーン状況を確認せずにトレイルに向かって走る直線的なWarwickプレイヤーを罰します。
How the champion adapts. 彼は全ての動きに応答するのではなく、ゲームをスローダウンさせるべきです。入り口をワードし、脆弱なレーンをカバーし、そして敵のダッシュが早すぎる使用を保証されたアルティメットに変えることは、リスクの高い追撃よりも優れています。
Warwickはエンゲージする際に非常に脅威に見えることがありますが、敵チームが彼のエントリーをトラップに変えた場合、彼は脆くなります。Wukongは実際のインパクトポイントを複雑にし、RengarはWarwickが他の場所にコミットしている間にキャリーを罰することができ、そしてAmumuのような有利なマッチアップでさえ、Warwickがゾーンコントロールを尊重せずにエンゲージした場合、危険になる可能性があります。問題は相手チャンピオンだけではありません。それは敵チームがWarwickが戦闘の真ん中に身を投げるのを待っている方法です。
How the champion adapts. Warwickはエンゲージする代わりにピールする必要がある場合があります。Eとアルティメットを保持してキャリーを保護したり、敵のエントリーを止めたりすることは、バックラインへの野心的なジャンプよりも多くの価値をもたらす可能性があります。
Olafは、Warwickの自然な自信に直接攻撃するため、理解すべき優先的なマッチアップです。多くのWarwickプレイヤーは早期にデュエルを試したいですが、Olafはコントロールロジックの一部を否定し、戦闘を生の交換に変えることができ、そこでWarwickの回復はもはやアドバンテージを確保するには十分ではありません。正しい答えはマップから消えることではありません。レーンの周りでプレイし、Olafにオブジェクトまたは数的有利の不利に対応させ、そしてマッチアップが正直すぎる孤立した川を避けてください。
Gravesは、彼が常に静的なデュエルでWarwickを打ち負かそうとするわけではないため、異なる読みが必要です。彼は距離、短い再配置、そして侵略圧力によってWarwickのリズムを崩すことができます。Warwickは視界なしで彼を追いかけるのを避けるべきです。より良い計画は、主要なキャンプを保護し、Gravesが侵略している間にオーバーエクステンションするレーンを罰し、そしてGravesが既に再配置を使用したとき、または味方のレーンが角度を閉じたときにのみエンゲージすることです。
Warwickの最良のカウンターは、彼の接触を断ち切るか、彼のサステインを否定するチャンピオンだ。それは、長引く戦いに勝つ決闘者、彼に簡単なターゲットを与えない機動力のあるジャングラー、または彼の突入を中断するのに十分なクラウドコントロールを持つ構成かもしれない。Warwickは明確なシーケンスを望む：到達、保持、回復、完了。チャンピオンがこれらのステップのいずれかを防ぐと、マッチアップははるかに困難になる。
Olafに対して、Warwickはマッチアップを通常のデュエルとして扱うことを避けるべきだ。Olafは彼の正面からの強さを競い、戦いのタイミングによってはサプレッションやコントロールを信頼しにくくすることができる。最善のアプローチは、孤立した1v1を探すのではなく、レーンと目標の周りでプレイすることだ。WarwickがOlafに数的有利や準備されたコンテストに対応させることを強制した場合、彼はマッチアップに望むものを与えずに価値を得る。
特にWarwickがEを利用できる場合、キテは純粋なバーストよりも信頼性が高いことが多い。早すぎるバーストは吸収される可能性があり、その後Warwickは恐怖を与え、十分回復して戦いを有利に進めることができる。理想的なアプローチは、彼の本当のエンゲージの前にEを使わせ、彼のQやアルティメットの価値を断ち切るのに十分な距離を保ち、そして彼のダメージ軽減とコントロールが利用できなくなった後に彼を罰することだ。
はい、しかし彼は役割を変える必要がある。不利なマッチアップでは、Warwickは自分がjungleデュエルに勝つことを証明しようとすべきではない。彼はgankをカウンターしたり、サステインを通じて目標を確保したり、強いレーンを保護したり、敵がエスケープを使うのを待ってからアルティメットを発動したりできる。彼の価値は派手ではなくなるが、より戦略的になる：彼のコントロールと追跡が真の結果をもたらす戦いを選ぶことだ。
