How to play Warwick in ARAM Mayhem

Warwick is a solid, middle-of-the-pack pick in ARAM Mayhem on patch 26.21: tier B, #67 of 173 champions, with a 50.3% win rate over 505,941 games. Riot rates it 3/10 for difficulty: easy to pick up when it lands on your bench.

Warwick's damage is mixed (43% physical, 52% magic), which makes it awkward for the enemy team to itemize against. It soaks 69,183 damage per game and mitigates another 92,151, so it belongs at the front: start fights and absorb the poke your carries can't.

The Bruiser build, bruiser items that mix damage and health, is both the most played and the top-ranked path: Blade of The Ruined King, Spirit Visage and Death's Dance, with a 50.8% win rate over 121,950 games. For boots, Mercury's Treads are both the most bought and the top-ranked pair.

The cards that do best on Warwick are Armored Impact, Ultra Hydra and Tooth Fairy. Cards built around attack speed and on-hit fill most of the top of its list, followed by ability haste. Skip Shrink Ray and Don't Change the Channel when you can: they do worst on Warwick. A pair to look for: Transmute: Prismatic with Tooth Fairy.

Take Flash and Mark (92% of players). Max Q (Jaws of the Beast) first, then E, then W.
