the curious case of the bad jungler

Warwick, right?

 So as of right now the one of the original junglers Warwick is complete shit. Even support characters like Taric outshine him in almost every way. Taric's clear time, ganks, and utility are all better currently than our furry friend. Taric is one of the only junglers playable right now with the point click stun aspect, which is a huge novelty. He has good sustain, AoE clears, and fabulous stuns. Just seems a bit silly that the support hero is outclassing one of the original three heroes labled as a "Jungler".





At the same time this is one of the hardest changes for Riot to adjust. Warwick is a champion where he is too weak in the jungle or completely busted in top lane. His top lane was diminished by reducing the cost of his Hungering Strike and few other minor tweaks. Like one can't exist without the other. There can't be a good TopWick and JungleWick. This champ is too hard to balance. Things Riot needs to consider is making his abilities deal more damage to neutral creeps and increase his attack speed per level. Like I said however, its an incredibly hard change to make happen. I'm almost 100% positive they are fully aware that Warwick sucks the dick pretty hard right now, they just can't find a suitable change to not make his top lance presence get ridiculous.
