Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Warwick's early dueling strength and sustain let him contest river and punish Fizz's weaker early clears.
Prioritize early river control and contest Scuttle when nearby lanes have priority to leverage Warwick's invade resistance.
This matchup is a snowball fight where Warwick must use early pressure to deny Fizz scaling and pick low-health targets.

Jungle Plan

Path toward lanes with low-health enemies and use (W) to track Fizz's position for counter-ganks.
Contest Scuttle and river vision aggressively to deny Fizz early tempo and objective control.
Invade Fizz's jungle camps if lanes have priority and Fizz is spotted on the opposite side or after he uses (E) recklessly.

Danger windows

Respect (E) cooldown as his main dodge and escape tool; avoid engaging when it is available.
Be cautious around level 6 when (R) knockup can turn isolated fights lethal.
Avoid low-health jungle clears or forced smite fights when Fizz can burst before Warwick's sustain kicks in.

Early game

Start with a three-camp clear to reach level 3 quickly and prepare to contest Scuttle crab.
Fight for first Scuttle only if nearby lanes can move first and support river control.
Avoid extended invades before level 3 when Fizz's burst combo and (E) dodge are unavailable but risky to misplay.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks Warwick's full kit with sustain and fear; use this to force extended fights and punish Fizz's short trades.
Level 6 grants (R) suppression enabling picks or forced all-ins; bait (E) before committing.
First dueling or tank item enhances Warwick's durability and dueling, increasing pressure on Fizz's squishiness.

Win conditions

Use early dueling strength and (W) tracking to secure Scuttle and dragon control with lane priority.
Convert river vision dominance into safe counter-jungling and pick opportunities with (R) suppression.
Force extended fights on low-health targets to outlast Fizz's burst and deny his scaling potential.
