Ww's boring to play against and also not really a mechanically challenging champion to use. It's just the extremely stale "out-sustain the shit out of you till lv6 at which point the upcoming gank will fuck you up so you'll have to freeze and pray".

His winrate was huge way before the new jungler items and the meta-shift (bye early gankers) indirectly buffed him. He was at a solid 2nd-to-5th place in winrate ever since Feral Flare's release (not to mention he was already a top 10 winrate before).

Now? It's become ridiculously hard to snowball a lane in the early, as a jungler. What was jungle-WW's greatest counterplay is almost non-existant right now. Seriously, you either pick Panth / Vi / Sejuani on this guy or you will never be able to snowball your lanes before WW reaches that disguting level 6.

You also have to factor in Grievous Wounds being slowly removed from the game and making WW even more impossible to 1v1.

I don't care about Warwick being this bloodthristy beast, with great dueling potential  and hard as hell to outsustain. I simply find him not challenging enough to play for how gamechanging he can be.
