Rammus vs Warwick

Updated Jun 5, 2026

Overview

Use Rammus's high mobility and taunt to punish Warwick's early river pressure and low-health targets.
Avoid extended farming against Warwick's faster clear and strong dueling; focus on ganks and cross-map plays to gain tempo.
Prioritize anti-AD scaling and teamfight lockdown over raw objective control due to slower clear speed.

Jungle Plan

Path to camps near pushed lanes to leverage (Q) speed and (E) taunt for early ganks before Warwick can counter-invade.
Fight for river control only when your lanes can assist, denying Warwick easy Scuttle and objective setups.
Use cross-map ganks to exploit Warwick's moderate mobility and avoid direct early duels where he excels.

Danger windows

Avoid isolated river fights early, especially if Warwick has priority or low-health lanes to back him.
Beware of forced smite fights around early objectives where Warwick's sustain and dueling overpower Rammus.
Stay cautious during Warwick's suppression (R) cooldown window and fear (E) availability to prevent picks or forced all-ins.

Early game

Start with a three or four-camp clear aimed toward lanes where Warwick is overextended to set up early ganks.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority to avoid Warwick's strong dueling and sustain.
Ward defensively against Warwick's early invade attempts and avoid direct fights until armor and taunt value increase.

Power spikes

Level 3: Use full kit to absorb Warwick's burst and sustain trades, focusing on (E) taunt to disrupt his damage.
Level 6: Capitalize on your engage (Q) and knockup (R) to punish Warwick's suppression attempts and create teamfight lockdown.
Warwick's level 3 dueling and level 6 suppression require respect; avoid extended trades during these spikes.

Win conditions

Convert gank pressure into objective control by securing dragons and Rift Herald with lane priority.
Deny Warwick's scaling by counter-jungling camps when lanes have priority and Warwick is visible elsewhere.
Use your high mobility and taunt crowd control to initiate teamfights and lock down key AD carries, leveraging your anti-AD scaling.
