Warwick vs Talon

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Warwick's early dueling and sustain let him contest river and punish Talon's roam windows.
Prioritize fighting around low-health targets and lanes with priority to leverage Warwick's strong early pressure.

Jungle Plan

Path to volatile lanes where (W) can track low-health targets for early picks.
Contest Scuttle Crab aggressively when lanes can support to deny Talon's mobility and vision.
Use river control and vision to set up counter-ganks against Talon's roam attempts after wave pushes.

Danger windows

Beware Talon's level 2-3 burst combo when he has (Q) and (W) off cooldown; avoid isolated fights then.
(R) stealth and burst at level 6 create pick threat; respect its availability and avoid overextensions.
Low-health clears or forced smite fights without lane priority increase risk; avoid these unless supported.

Early game

Start with a full clear to reach level 3 quickly and prepare for early river contest.
Fight for first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority to reduce counter-gank risk.
Avoid extended invades before level 3 or when (R) is available to prevent burst picks.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks full sustain and fear, enabling Warwick to win extended duels; take fights where (E) can absorb Talon's burst.
Level 6 (R) allows suppression picks; use it after baiting Talon's movement to lock down targets.
First dueling or tank item enhances survivability and dueling power to outlast Talon's burst damage.

Win conditions

Convert early dueling wins into vision control and priority around dragon and Rift Herald.
Use (W) to track low-health enemies and force picks or skirmishes favoring Warwick's sustain.
Deny Talon's roam impact by punishing him on river paths and securing objectives with team vision.
