Kha'Zix vs Warwick

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Kha'Zix's isolation damage and stealth to punish Warwick's early dueling reliance on extended fights.
Manage jungle tempo by avoiding grouped river fights where Warwick's sustain and fear reduce your burst impact.
This is a snowball matchup where Kha'Zix must leverage picks and objective control to outpace Warwick's early dueling.

Jungle Plan

Prioritize pathing through jungle entrances and side lanes where you can isolate Warwick or his teammates for picks.
Fight for river control and Scuttle when lane priority allows to set up isolated skirmishes and objective setups.
Use vision denial before dragon or Rift Herald to create picks with (R) stealth and isolate Warwick away from his team.

Danger windows

Avoid isolated river fights when Warwick has (E) fear and (R) suppression ready, as he can lock you down and outlast burst.
Beware of early invades before your first damage item, as Warwick's sustain and dueling make him a dangerous opponent.
Be cautious contesting objectives if nearby lanes lack priority, as Warwick can collapse with (R) to force picks or fights.

Early game

Start a clean full clear focusing on camps that allow isolation to maximize (Q) damage before contesting river.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority and Warwick is not nearby to punish isolated fights.
Avoid early invades without vision as Warwick's sustain and fear make direct fights risky before your first damage item.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks (R) stealth and evolution choices; use fog and isolation to pick Warwick before he can engage with (R) suppression.
First damage item spike greatly increases your burst on isolated targets; use this to invade and punish Warwick's camps when lanes cannot collapse.
Respect Warwick's level 3 power spike when he has full kit for sustain and fear, avoiding extended trades without isolation advantage.

Win conditions

Use superior isolation damage and (R) stealth to pick off Warwick or his teammates before objectives.
Control vision around dragon and Rift Herald to force Warwick into unfavorable fights or prevent his early objective attempts.
Snowball leads by counter-jungling Warwick when he overextends or commits to low-health lanes, denying his early dueling advantage.
