Learn how to Hwei counter with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Bait out Hwei's E ability and then look to engage — this is his only crowd control tool and has a long cooldown, creating a significant window of vulnerability.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Position away from your minion wave when laning against Hwei — this prevents him from simultaneously pushing the wave and poking you with the same abilities.
Basic Lane Phase
Move away quickly when marked by Hwei's passive — if you're hit by a second ability within 4 seconds, the mark will trigger an explosion dealing 35-180 (+35% AP) bonus magic damage after a short delay.
Basic Lane Phase Skirmish
Request jungle assistance when Hwei is pushed forward — his lack of mobility makes him extremely vulnerable to ganks when overextended.
Lane Phase
Avoid fighting Hwei in narrow jungle pathways — his area-of-effect abilities are significantly more effective in confined spaces where they can hit multiple targets.
Skirmish Team Fight
Focus on shutting down Hwei early game — he scales extremely well into later stages and becomes increasingly potent in team fights as the game progresses.
Lane Phase
Lock down Hwei with crowd control and focus him during team fights — despite his damage potential, his immobility makes him vulnerable once isolated.
Team Fight
Exercise additional caution when Hwei reaches level 6 — his ultimate improves his 1v1 fighting potential and enables more effective combos.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Be especially cautious of Hwei's power at level 3 — with access to all his basic abilities, he becomes significantly more threatening in lane.
