Use Warwick's strong early dueling and sustain to contest early river Scuttle and punish Shyvana's slower early pressure.
Prioritize early fights around lanes with low-health targets where (W) can track and create kill opportunities.
Manage tempo to deny Shyvana free farm and delay her dragon-form scaling by contesting camps and objectives aggressively.
Jungle Plan
Path toward lanes with vulnerable low-health enemies to leverage (W) for ganks and picks.
Contest Scuttle and river vision aggressively when lanes can move first to set up objective control.
Invade Shyvana early before she hits dragon-form and item spikes to disrupt her fast farming and scaling.
Danger windows
Avoid river fights when Shyvana has Fury stacks and (W) speed boost active, increasing her chase potential.
Be cautious contesting objectives when Shyvana's lanes lack priority, as she can outclear and force tempo resets.
Respect moments after missing (R) or (E), as Warwick's pick and dueling threat temporarily drops, increasing vulnerability to counterattacks.
Early game
Start with a clear that allows early level 3 power spike to pressure or invade safely.
Fight for the first Scuttle Crab only if nearby lanes have priority to support river control.
Avoid extended fights without lane help early, as Shyvana's fast clear lets her recover quickly otherwise.
Power spikes
Level 3 unlocks full kit; use (Q) healing and (E) fear to win extended duels and punish Shyvana's medium dueling.
Level 6 (R) grants suppression and long-range engage; use it to lock down targets who overextend or lack escape.
First dueling or tank item spike increases survivability and damage in fights; use this to force objectives or invade safely.
Win conditions
Convert early dueling wins into dragon and Rift Herald control by securing vision and forcing Shyvana off camps.
Use (W) to track low-health targets and coordinate ganks with lanes that have priority for kills and objectives.
Deny Shyvana's fast clear tempo by invading and counter-jungling before her mid-game scaling spikes, leveraging Warwick's sustain and suppression to dominate skirmishes.
