Lee Sin vs Warwick

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Lee Sin's very high early game pressure to force river fights and invade before Warwick can leverage sustain and dueling strength.
Prioritize early tempo and skirmishes to deny Warwick's scaling and prevent him from reaching mid-game power spikes.

Jungle Plan

Invade Warwick at level 3 when you have lane priority to exploit his weaker early clear and force health leads.
Contest Scuttle Crabs aggressively when your lanes can assist to deny Warwick early vision and objective control.
Use creative ward-hops and mobility to gank lanes vulnerable to Warwick's low-health chase and suppress his impact by forcing him off camps.

Danger windows

Respect Warwick's first river move and early invade timing, as his sustain and fear can punish low-health Lee Sin.
Avoid isolated river fights without lane priority, as Warwick's dueling and suppression can turn fights against you.
Be cautious during forced smite fights on dragon or Herald when Warwick can leverage his sustain and suppression to contest.

Early game

Start with a three-camp clear that enables level 3 invade or river contest when nearby lanes have priority.
Fight for first Scuttle only if your lanes can move first to avoid risky isolated fights.
Avoid full clears that delay pressure; reset tempo with ganks or counter-invades after successful early plays.

Power spikes

At level 3, use Lee Sin's full kit to contest river and punish Warwick's early full clears by forcing fights with (Q) and (W).
At level 6, leverage (R) to isolate priority targets or disrupt Warwick's objective attempts by kicking him away from fights.
Respect Warwick's level 3 dueling power with (E) fear and healing; avoid extended trades if you lack health advantage.

Win conditions

Convert early river control and successful invades into dragon and Rift Herald setups to snowball your team.
Use (R) displacement to deny Warwick's access to objectives and isolate high-value targets in skirmishes.
Maintain tempo by resetting camps after ganks, tracking Warwick's pathing, and counter-ganking to deny his scaling and map pressure.
