Warwick vs Amumu

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Warwick's early dueling and sustain let him contest river and punish Amumu's slower clears and weak early dueling.
Prioritize early pressure and objective control to deny Amumu safe farming and delay his strong teamfight scaling.

Jungle Plan

Path toward lanes with priority to capitalize on (W) tracking and force Amumu off camps before he hits level 6.
Fight for first Scuttle only when your lanes can assist and river vision is established to secure early objective control.
Use early dueling strength to invade Amumu’s jungle camps when he shows on the opposite side or after he uses (Q) aggressively elsewhere.

Danger windows

Avoid isolated river fights before level 6 when Amumu can chain (Q) stuns and (R) area lockdown.
Be cautious contesting objectives if Amumu’s lanes have priority and can follow his long-range engages.
Low-health clears without (E) ready expose you to burst damage and forced smite fights that Amumu can exploit.

Early game

Start with a full clear into Scuttle when nearby lanes have priority to contest river control.
Avoid fighting Amumu if he has lane priority or when your (E) fear is on cooldown to prevent losing extended trades.
Use (W) to track low-health lanes and set up early counter-ganks or invades when Amumu commits to a full clear.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks full kit; use (E) to absorb burst and (Q) to sustain in extended fights before Amumu builds tank stats.
Level 6 (R) allows suppression picks; bait Amumu’s (Q) engage and punish his lack of mobility with your lockdown.
First dueling or tank item spike increases survivability and fight potential; contest objectives aggressively around this timing.

Win conditions

Convert early dueling wins into dragon and Rift Herald control by using river dominance and vision.
Use (W) tracking to set up picks on low-health targets or overextended enemies to snowball leads.
Deny Amumu’s scaling by invading and contesting camps before he reaches tank thresholds and teamfight power spikes.
