Tips Against Hwei in Mid Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
AikoPanda says “get edge of night and lane is chill.
he has no way to dodge your WEQ/WQE poke, when he uses Q engage on him.”
Sephyrixx says “Hard winning matchup. You need fast hands tho! Walk up to Q. Tanking his Q is fine, but if he ever uses E, use your blink (E) to dodge and trade. Just dont tank a lot lvl 1 and 2. Stay healthy and use ur healthbar to apply pressure. His goal is to survive lane, and yours is to kill him. Him being low is more important than you being low since you have more kill pressure!”
Misuleague says “Take Exhaust. Block his entire kit, aim to block his R past level 6, block his fear before level 6, take exhaust let him push and run him down.”
V222 says “Try to keep your distance from Hwei as much as possible so he can't easily proc his passive on you. The main thing you need to watch for is his purple abilities (E), since they're what let him peel you off or set up his damage. If his E is on cooldown, that's usually your best chance to look for a trade or all-in. Cleanse is also really strong in this matchup since it lets you force fights much more aggressively, even when he still has his E available.
”
Peteruso says “Very similar to Ahri. Electro can be good, I take aggro setup since Hwei is pretty bad if weak.
Dodge diagonally when he uses the carpet (QE), so that you don't get pulled in by EE (the hands) and chunked.
His QQ is the most annoying during lanephase.
Don't E in without a plan as he can cancel it with fear. His EW (rooting eye spell) doesn't work on you while camouflaged, take advantage of this as he uses it to facecheck.
His R slows a ton, your E negates that slow.”
twin7zz says “Strong early game, but not the worst matchup in the world, bait his combos by pretending to last hit. you can jump onto him if he wastes his fear ability. ”
Amothertruckingunicorn says “Too long range to consistently get good qs on, base arcane comet/spellbook on if you really want another combat sum for sidelane (ignite if it's hwei and a squishy/healtank toplaner could be good, for example) and base d ring/ d helm on when your team wants to fight. ”
uramakyo says “Versatile poke and strong lane phase. His ability to shift range and patterns makes your zoning harder to apply. You outscale him but laning is rough.”
Gladiore says “He's an artillery mage....we are fizz. Dodge his abilities use your passive if he commonly tries to e-q and the matchup should be very easy if you don't have a lead by 6 still, aslong as you haven't died.”
MindControlled says “Deletes our friend Ziggs. Play behind minions, and move a lot around. Hweis cooldowns are long, so exploid it and dogde his skillshots and punish him.”
L0ganJG says “ALL ABOUT CREATING YOUR OWN OPPORTUNITIES. Try to get close with your movement then sideways W to dodge spells. Use E and D Shield to scale. Short trades are good and juke his spells with movements. Titanic is usually better but botrk is very good too. Preference for build just play good wave states and bait spells. ”
Young Ryze says “Clear waves n roam lane. You clear waves faster than him if he plays aggressive towards you and that way you have more space to roam / recall.”
V222 says “U can run Grasp or Lethal tempo into him its preference, don't level up E or Q yet, if he presses Q on the wave or u , u can Level Up your E and get a trade on him, u can either run d shield or d blade its up to you, try to windwall his CC (Fear) the purple ability, Ignite is good into him to get a early lead since he is pretty killable before mana items.
”
Soul0fghost says “Depends on Jg. Normally easy if you can setup ganks can be harder if your jg won't help. Stand to the side of the wave and dodge the E-E and then you can E in.”
ELODUNG says “Mid / late game ho vždy zabiješ. Hwei není ani trochu mobilní na tvoje poměry. Bude tě perma pushovat, maxuj E. Runy: full burst nebo general, můžeš i fleet, je to jedno, s čím se ti bude hrát nejlépe. V late game ho zabiješ vždy. Early bude těžší ale když víš jak do něj jako do champa a máš aspoň trochu mechaniky, tak je to free.”
EggPlantEgg says “Playable until first reset, the moment he buys lost chapter he'll spam wave clear and threaten for a solo kill.
Extremely volatile matchup.”
Zamus says “Not a hard matchup. Look for his qe, he will try to qe + ee you. Also, when recalling with low hp, dont open your shop because he can snipe you. Movement speed is good into him. I recommend phase rush + swifties.”
Yoyos says “Cringe matchup. Second wind and Mercs. Don't over think it.
MOST Hwei players will QE the waves on repeat. If you play against a good Hwei, the experience can be unenjoyable so Mercs and Second Wind is a good default page. Normally Comet into mages but your keystone will depend on other roles. If you need phase rush, take it.”
Rainbow hater says “Runes: Electro
Build: Standard (mercs good rush)
Reasoning:
1. Hwei is really good at bullying short to mid range mages like zoe
2. Short cooldowns makes it difficult to punish him easily.
3. Can prevent zoe from following up on bubble with ew or qe.
4. Very squishy and immobile zoe can burst him down from a long range q.
Lane: Long range q to spam push him in, short range q to poke him while the wave is pushing into him.
If your confident u can run him down with ignite nimbus, and dodge his e with zoes movemnt speed buff from w, allowoing you to chunk him down forcing him to back or even kill him.
Post 6, pressing r infront of his face is risky as he can follow it up with his own r and combo your hp bar.
Side laning against hwei is not difficult mid late game as zoe can look for long range q over side lane walls.”
kekseres says “It's kinda skill matchup, you can avoid a lot of his DMG.
Be careful of his EE->QQ.
If you start combo with E be careful of his EQ -> use W movement speed to dodge - similiar to Ahri E or Syndra EQ.
Can go Doran's Shield if you struggle.
I don't suggest Electrocute since he has big shield on his WW.
”
AntiMetaFae says “Huawei is an all-around champion. While he's very easy to win in lane, his kit provides the sustain and mobility needed to survive trades, and he also has very long-range abilities. If you don't take advantage of this laner, you're almost guaranteed to lose the lane. He farms for free, rarely suffers from mana issues, and his kit makes him difficult to kill, since losing a trade almost always results in a death to his long-range abilities.”
Spaceturtlez says “Squishy, annoying, will just sit back and push waves. Basically Anivia but doesn't have GA early. Take free waves, freeze under tower, kill at 6. Very simple, never takes resolve so trade aggressively if he mis-steps.
Standard runes + Ignite”
bluwunk says “Most Mage bots will have you sitting under your tower for a while. Just try to stabilize and use TP efficiently. You can kill hwei if you dodge any of his e abilities by flying onto him most of the time. Wait for him to use his Q on something before all inning.”
cyb3r1a says “runes/starting items: conqueror domination with doran's shield start, if he uses any of his E abilities (purple color) you can trade on him because he won't have any cc.”
Suseri says “His fear is the only thing that can stop you from killing him so if he ever misses it or you avoid it you should always win. Dodge his abilities with your movement.”
Kolashiu says “Can push : yes
Can play agressive : yes
Can solokill : yes
Gameplan : Roam>Play with jgl>Solokill
The champion is overtuned but zoe does a pretty good job against him. You have slightly more range, can push wave without much risk. Play behind minions early in lane as he will try to poke a lot with QQ, focus on dodging his E E as its the beginning of his combo. The hitbox is made in a way that its quite easier to dodge by just walking away than walking on the side. He wants to poke you down out of lane, but any bubble you hit and he is in a very bad spot. You may get angles for it when he try to walk up for E E, dodge it a few times by walking away then just walk in once and run him down when he doesnt expect it and flip bubble.
After 6, his EE combo can lead to your death if he hit R out of it. You often have the option to just R out his R in the middle of his combo and then you can trade back. You can also play high range and try to push the wave and roam or wait him in the corner.”
KesNedd says “Hard to take the push early levels, but after 6 you should outroam him. If he places QE try to bait him to EE you, then sidestep and combo him.”
step1v9 says “You should never kill a good hwei player. That being said, this trick will let you kill all the bad ones: when he uses the pull ability that pulls you into the middle, he is not able to cast the fear so you have a window to ghost flash all-in him.”
BurnVictim69 says “This matchup is similar to Lux. He has a wide array of abilities you need to be aware of to dodge effectively. If you’re good at avoiding skill shots, this matchup shouldn’t be too difficult.”
risnao says “- typical mage matchup tbh
- his EE is really thin and can be dodged w E, and it's his only real 'get off me' tool
- mind the AOE on his QQ
- try not to get poked out”
Peng04 says “Trade Pattern
- Look to bait Hwei Q 10 or E 13 Ideally before his last hit that way i can punish him
- Can look to W in when E or Q W is Down or to dodge E
- If he has no W or E and hes Below 65% All in time
- Hwei CD Q 10/-1 W 18-0.5 E 13/0.5
Goals
Be Ahead or Even 1-5 After 6+ Look to coordinate with Jg to Get Vision around mid or Kill
Can use the Advantage that Hwei CD is very long 10 18 13 LVL 1
Flash for Flash if Worth for me”
Quinfrey says “[[Hwei]] is kinda like a [[Xerath]] with triple the amount of abilities so he can feel special.
His goal is to poke you down in lane with any of his Q's and any other damaging ability to proc his passive ([[Signature Of The Visionary]])
[[Hwei]] his Q ([[Subject: disaster]]) choice is very predictable and I'll explain here what to look out for.
QQ ([[Devastating Fire]]): The most common poke form, this gets blocked by minions so try to stay behind some.
QW ([[Severing Bolt]]): This form has the most amount of range but is easy to dodge, it does extra damage if you're low or stunned.
They will throw this one if you're far away, as execute or if you're stunned. ALWAYS be prepared to dodge this.
QE ([[Molten Fissure]]): This is his wave clear, don't stand in it because it does do damage. Do be careful of an EE ([[Crushing Maw]]) with it because it's a great combo do do a lot of damage with both abilities + [[Signature Of The Visionary]].
He will most likely use this one (or combo) if you just stand behind the minions to not get hit by his QQ, just run away if he uses it (or to the side to trade).
I'll quickly explain his W's ([[Subject: Serenity]]):
- WQ ([[Fleeting Current]]) => MS in a path
- WW ([[Pool of Reflection]]) => pool that gives shield
- WE ([[Stirring Lights]]) => Empowered AA that gives [[Mana]] and helps him proc [[Signature of the Visionary]]
[[Subject: Torment]] (E) are his stuns, don't engage until he uses these! (12 sec cd lvl 1)
I will also explain these quick:
- EQ ([[Grim Visage]]) => fear he casts in a straight line, expect a QW.
- EW ([[Gaze of the Abyss]]) => He throws a pool that roots if you come close, expect a QW
- EE ([[Crushing Maw]]) he pulls you in and slows, expected with or after a QE.
His ult ([[Spiraling Despair]]) is really annoying, it does damage to everyone around you but also slows. The slow increases how longer it is on you and can be a real pain in the ass.
I like to buy [[Edge of night]] second in the matchup for anti stun if you want to catch him by surprise of to tank one of his poke abilities. ”
Acidmoroman says “He outranks you but his skills are pretty easy to dodge, and he dont have the capacity of leaving your W, so you can abuse him if he is not better than you.”
The Veigar says “It's easy, but he can one-shot wave and gain tempo
Tip: Base at raptor bush if you have to base and your hp is low enough to die with his Q-W”
ChessScholar says “Dodge his abilities, otherwise expect a very rough laning phase.
This requires extreme patience and awareness of where he'll place his abilities. Run to the sides, not directly backward, to more easily avoid the hitboxes.
Build early MR if you're having trouble with his QE combo. He's very susceptible to ganks, work with your jungler.
Focus on getting Level 6 and then actively search for roams.”
Tofu Dubu says “- he has Too much range, cc, he spam abilities, really unplayable if he is good, rush hydra, clear wave, roam, squirmish.
- Poke him when possible, punish every step forward when he is far from his tower.”
Jumpman25th says “Take W max and Comet
This is a farming lane, focus on your CS and dodging his abilities.
Try and hit him with QW whenever you can and punish his cooldowns.”
KingBranco says “Tips: Very hard matchup, too much range and can fear you when you E in. Would recommend taking TP, rush a bloodthirster and just try and scale and play for mid game fights/lategame. You can W most of their kit but W'ing stuff that isnt ult gets you a free ult in the face. (usually = death when they have 1 item) Would only go for early game kills up to like level 8 unless you are stomping. Once they get 1 to 2 items E'ing in and not w'ing ult = dead. ”
tspeach says “Look to engage when his key abilities are on cooldown, especially his E (fear) and W (root). Utilize your stealth from the brush element to approach undetected and execute quick combos. Avoid extended trades where he can zone you out; instead, focus on short, decisive engagements”
Marex_je_u_bushu says “Hwei is very easy matchup. All you need to do is W his E and he is useless later ready to be killed by you. Take doran shield if you plan to play safe and dont engage him but take doran blade. Take ELECTROCUTE vs him.”
yJustSad says “Hwei won’t give you a chance to engage with his infinite utility. The best thing to do is buy Verdant Barrier as soon as possible to cancel out his E spell, then kill him afterward.”
22automail says “Tough matchup, his kit is hyper overloaded, he has a shield + fear that he cant miss if he holds it until you're on top of him. I put it a 4 and not a 5 because you can side step it if you play it well. But heavily hwei favoured. Long range, good CC and waveclear.
You destroy him in a side lane if played well.”
Skill enjoyer says “Riot decides the outcome of the match before the game even starts, so you don't really have any influence on the game because Riot won't let you win anyway if you have a similar relationship with Riot as I do.
”
KomariLoL says “Almost all of his abilities are Wind Wallable. Just be careful not to get poked by too many Q Q's in lane and you will never get killed.
Wind Walling/Dodging his E Q (fear) should be your priority because if he misses that, then you can just run him down with autos and Qs.
After level 9 when he gets a lot of points in Q, the lane becomes pretty uninteractive because of his high wave clear from his Q E (Long Orange Line). This makes killing him in lane difficult because he can safely clear the entire wave with a couple of abilities, then retreat into his tower. What you should do is Wind Wall his Q E, instantly clear your wave, then look around the map to do something (ward, roam, skirmish).
A small interaction most people don't know is that you can actually Wind Wall Hwei's snare (E W) after its on the ground as it is tethering towards you.”
Balinthun873 says “Start Dshield. He has really long poke and waveclear which barely costs mana. His ult is easy to dodge and you can all in him after he uses his CC ability.”
AuroraAddict says “Hwei is indeed a skill matchup for the most part you can't really do much (espesially in laing phase since he just waveclears out of the whole early game) BUT late game you kinda just kill him free.”
BesXbola says “Assim como todos os magos de longo alcance voce nao vai conseguir pokear o Hwei, mas ele vai conseguir te pokear e muito. Tente desviar de tudo que ele jogar em voce pois voce so vai mata-lo com seu jungler e depois do nivel 6. Assim como todos os matchups nessa pagina, foque em roams e lutas 2v2.”
zzeuzin says “Go comet + second wind + doran shield, he has so much range, dont trade q with him he will always win, if you dodge her q-q he nevers kill you, and you never kill him, but he has priority.”
AlexFL7000 says “Hwei can be a pretty bad matchup sometimes since he has a lot of range, but dodging his abilities is not that hard most of the time. Try to poke him and not take damage and you can kill him”
v0ltage38 says “Second wind + scaling HP. Annoying. Keep your distance when he QE the wave, try and bait out his EE by walking up and down the side of his QE. You outscale quite hard so just play safe and clear waves. He can match your waveclear with Blackfire Torch so thats rough. Try to set up a gank on a side lane as you won't be doing much until 2nd or 3rd item. FoN better than Kaenic.”
PetriciteLoL says “Just annoying as he keeps pushing, it's Taliyah v2 but weaker. Q max as try to farm, if he messes his E up somehow it's free and you can one shot him.”
xumi_k says “He has great range, but his abilities are easy to dodge. Some Hweis run out of mana fast, trying to get you out of lane, but you kill him easily, as he's completely immobile and squishy. He has some CC though, slow, fear and a shield. Mage, so...
Mercs+Wit's End=Dead Mage!”
ZedAway says “really annoying long range poke, he outscales u, focus more on roaming and giving other lanes a lead while ur adc lays back and solo farm and get solo xp.”
Tamikaze says “Hwei can be a difficult matchup for Azir due to his high wave clear, high range, and high burst. The only saving grace in this lane is that he is an immobile mage that is vulernable to ganks. Ideally, if you can get him to waste his abilities on the wave or bait them out (especially his E), you can go in to DPS him down to gain a resource advantage. Do not go in on him unless his Q or E are down. You will lose the trade. Try to play around your Jungler, and call for ganks with your ult. ”
MattStyle says “Te recomiendo que mires un video en Youtube para conocer bien sus habilidades pues tiene 9 diferentes.
Debes esquivar su combo de E3, Q3 y E2 Q2 pues hacen mucho daño.
Su principal ventaja es que recupera maná con su W3 mientras que a ti se te agota.
Es un personaje muy bueno en TFs que además escala bien pero carece de movilidad así que es sencillo gankearlo o atraparlo si se posiciona mal. ”
j4ss says “Not bad but no the best matchup, I only put "even" because no matter what happens, he'll be annoying later on. But in lane he is a minor threat. Poke him down, and do your best to snowball him.”
Tatsurion says “I havent had the opportunity of laning into a GOOD, PROPER hwei. but i can imagine that both of you play very similarly. both of you are really strong lategame, and kinda okay ish early game, this is as even as a matchup gets i feel
take burst if the comp allows”
Xc1Mare says “Патлатый говнарь стал собирательным образом всего худшего из магов в лиге легенд
1 - Вы не можете безопасно спушивать линию не подставляясь под его QE ,Слишком пассивная игра отдаст ему приоритет и вас съедят под башней бесконечным спамом QQ
2 - Любая ваша агрессия встретит EQ или EE в лицо с последующим напалмом из скилов
3 - Эмо-бой способен заныть и получить ману из воздуха из-за чего его ресурсы могут быть бесконечными
4 - Он сильнее вас в командных сражениях и любое преимущество Хвея может сильно подкосить всю вашу команду
5 - Хвей способен хорошо пушить Башни пусть и не занимается этим так профильно как Зигс и Тристана
Играть против Хвея можно только с лесником и никак иначе ,вы можете попробовать получить приоритет на линии ценой своего здоровья ,но нет гарантий что подобный роум или смещение без ХП окупятся.”
Vladmidir says “In my opinion Hwei isn't that bad of a matchup, his QQ is pretty easy to dodge if u sidestep it. You can hard trade with him a few times then all in him. He doesn't have any mobility so once he uses his cooldowns you can all in him easily. ”
GreenReapers says “Electrocute or Conqueror.
Hwei is too good at proccing your first strike, if played correctly.
Take d-shield to survive early lane, while poking. Hwei has a lot of pressure on you and get's hard to kill once he fully stacks his archangels.
You should look to engage post 6. If his purple is down he has a much harder time to peel you off of him.
Look to dodge his burst with your ult where possible. Voltaic lets you kill him easier due to his lack of mobility abilities, but if you're too behind after a rough early eclipse might be a good choice.”
Halkem says “Really bad matchup. Has so many AOE abilities that you just can't reliably get push against him. He hard outranges you so it's hard to match his trades. A lot of times he can get you in kill range from far away. If you catch him from fog or flash on him with JG he's killable. Just survive as best as you can and look for opportunities to be useful.”
BrMario1011 says “Cancer pdf champ, puts you under your tower, can cancel ur w if hes fast enough, he can escape ganks somewhat, team fights better than you, and does a funny damage early game, late game try ur best to pick him off
Go electrocute second winds, dorans ring and teleport”
Hexeria says “[Will bully you from minute 1.] [Go Dorans Shield + Second Wind] [Dont engage when he has his E, wait for his abilites to be thrown out and quickly kill him] [Buy Tank items with Hollow Radience first.]”
MetalK1d says “Hwei is one of the best bans for Gragas. He has very big damage, high range and can easily cancel your engage. The only way to kill him is to poke him with Qs and engage him with flash so he can not dodge it.”
MelodiesOfLIfe says “Easy to kill and you outrange him.. well most of the time.. He's just like Ahri but very weak and with no dash to hep him escape.”
otaliz says “Hwei is a champion who needs to hit his abilities to deal damage, as they are skillshots. That's why the best way to play against it is with a lot of movement speed, which is why Shurelya's build is a good option against Hwei. Rod of Ages with Celerity and movement speed shard is also good. Control the wave according to the game state until level 6, then start pushing the wave and start looking for roaming opportunities. Buy boots as fast as possible.”
Baxterstein says “One of the few other champs that can match your permapush. But, he goes OOM and you do not. Get demolish procs on his tower when he backs for mana. Your goal here is to keep him under tower while you influence the map (especially helping your jungle snowball), enabling your team to hopefully dogpile onto him in lategame.”
Laimaudeja says “[[Subject: Disaster]] and [[Subject: Torment]] both have significantly longer cooldowns than [[Bouncing Bomb]]. Use this to your advantage in the early Levels to dominate Hwei in extended trades with [[Short Fuse]] and repeated Bouncing Bombs.
If you get hit by one of Hwei's spells from Level 2 onward, avoid fighting for the next few seconds. A lot of Hwei's strength in lane lies in short trades where he can effectively trigger [[Signature of the Visionary]]. Ziggs prefers avoiding such short confrontations, and would much rather chip away at Hwei's health over an extended period of time.
Should you be struck by [[Spiraling Despair]], hold onto your [[Satchel Charge]] for the first few seconds. You should try to use Satchel Charge to dodge a [[Severing Bolt]] that Hwei would use at the end of Spiraling Despair's duration.
Remember that [[Satchel Charge]] permits Ziggs to dash even while rooted. Should you be hit by [[Gaze of the Abyss]], use Satchel Charge to dodge an oncoming [[Severing Bolt]] or [[Spiraling Despair]]. ”
Yannou-Ari says “Flash - TP - Scaling HP. COMET or FIRST STRIKE (if good movements)
You have range advantage 50% of the time depending on what spells he uses.
He's lowkey a mirror matchup for you as Lux. Obviously he has more spells than you which makes him more versatile. After 2 items, he'll be kinda hard to one shot due to his Archangel's shield. Matchup is relying on who will dodge the spells of the other.”
angeLoon says “phase rush and inspiration
or
Electrocute and Ignite
the lane in start is his, but when you have your tear and serrated dirk the matchup turns into you.
poke him with your QE ranged
and try to all in him when he waste his E”
ShokLoL says “Hwei is an extremely strong laner but you should be able to get a slight lead against him and then outscale him. Try position behind creeps so that you can’t get hit by random QQ poke, but far enough away that you have time to dodge the QE + EE combo if he decides to try nuke the wave instead. Hwei is very gankable and can suffer in early skirmishes so if you can ever look for 2v2s or ganks mid it will definitely pay off. Rushing T2 boots in this matchup can be useful in order to help dodge his poke.
”
ShokLoL says “Hwei is very strong in lane, but will struggle against you in the mid game. Try position behind creeps so that you can’t get hit by random QQ poke, but far enough away that you have time to dodge the QE + EE combo if he decides to try nuke the wave instead. Hwei is very gankable and can suffer in early skirmishes so if you can ever look for 2v2s or ganks mid it will definitely pay off. ”
ShokLoL says “Hwei is very strong in lane but you will outperform him in any early skirmishes or teamfights. Try position behind creeps so that you can’t get hit by random QQ poke, but far enough away that you have time to dodge the QE + EE combo if he decides to try nuke the wave instead. Try setup ganks onto him and look to trade whenever his E is down.”
awawa says “A Gloomie wannabe. He can cancel your ult with E-Q, and deal some good damage. He has shorter CDs so make sure you dont waste abilities and let him poke you for free.
Life gets easier once you are 6, after all its just another squishy mage.”
MageSept says “Similar to Xerath, take Doran's shield and Second Wind.
Unlike Xerath, he has no mana problem and his cooldowns are low, which makes him harder than Xerath in my opinion, but still easier than Irelia, Zed and Katarina since he has less mobility and shouldn't impact the map as much.”
ShokLoL says “Hwei is a very strong laner but Orianna should be able to bully him. ry position behind creeps so that you can’t get hit by random QQ poke, but far enough away that you have time to dodge the QE + EE combo if he decides to try nuke the wave instead. The more QW combos you can get off without taking damage in return the easier this matchup will be.”
ShokLoL says “Hwei is an extremely strong laner but you will outscale him. Try position behind creeps so that you can’t get hit by random QQ poke, but far enough away that you have time to dodge the QE + EE combo if he decides to try nuke the wave instead. Be very careful trying to go aggro onto him with melee unless he has already used Q.”
ShokLoL says “Hwei is pretty strong in lane but you should be able to go even, and then you outscale him very hard. Try position behind creeps so that you can’t get hit by random QQ poke, but far enough away that you have time to dodge the QE + EE combo if he decides to try nuke the wave instead. He's also very gankable post 6 so try play for a gank.”
ShokLoL says “Hwei is very strong in lane and can pressure you very hard 1v1, but he's very immobile and you should have no trouble setting up ganks onto him or catching him out of position in teamfights.”
ShokLoL says “Hwei is an extremely strong laner but generally gets outscaled.

Hwei is very gankable and can suffer in early skirmishes so if you can ever look for 2v2s or ganks mid it will definitely pay off.
”
Juon says “Has insane sustain, which is also bursty, and allows him to cc you and shield himself blablablablabla- you get the point. Its just super hard to play against, you have a much better chance trying to kill other laners than this monstrosity. One of the more important champs to have banned.”
Deceiver_euw says “Hwei is currently the strongest lane bully out of any mage into the game and 1v1 LeBlanc will really struggle into him early. Good thing is that hwei is really hard to play well so you will not struggle vs average hwei players. Once the Hwei is really good, its a nightmare. Your counterplay is obviously jungler and support since Hwei is very easy to kill with ganks or burn his flash.
Focus on dodging his spells rather than hitting him with W since his spells hit really hard but are all skillshots which you can dodge with movement and W.”
plankbro says “Hwei is a rough matchup. Mana is but a pittance to this champ and you will be constantly poked in lane. Save your Q+E combo for right after he does a CC ability, because he'll be out of CC for a short window for you to punish him. Pushing is really hard because he gets a lane-wide AoE ability every 5 seconds that zones you from the minions while also damaging your entire wave, so pushing reliably is tough. Trade your deaths for plates and watch out for ganks. Late game Hwei is a threat both to you AND your team, so just focus on your early plate lead and keep an eye out for any teamfights so that you can go and take a tower or two unharassed.”
IggyBoom says “If I could tell which E spell he is using, he'd be a minor matchup, but it is so hard to tell, if he just casually fears you while you are in the w. On the other side, he is still super immobile.”
AnxialSociety says “Electrocute impact choice choice. Manaflow absolute.
He will try and fear you after you sleep him so you can't combo.
He will trap your movement and R with E-W, which is brutal.
Recommend banshee's. Consider tear.”
Veralion says “Extremely obnoxious. His kit basically does everything; 200 year abomination with few flaws. Shoves you in and spams a billion spells on you while restoring mana on cooldown. You'll take a ton of unavoidable damage. Orange missile and his root->snipe combo are the biggest threats. Both can be blocked by your creeps; it's not intuitive at all, but the root shoots a projectile at you when triggered. Ulting on him will get you feared, ulted, and chunked. Dies easily to a gank, though, so annoy your jungle.”
vSomnia says “Try to trade when he used abilities, he has a lot of utility but kinda low damage so when he missed or uses abilities for farming, go make a trade. If he misses his fear on you he is kinda done for so try to dodge it. Always fight when he has no fear.”
WarwicksSimp says “Decent ban. Need jungle help badly in this matchup otherwise he's gonna heavy outscale you and win teamfights perma, rlly low cds and good wave clear to push into you, he perma has prio.
RECALL FAR AWAY (AT TIER 3 TOWER) ”
MasaruYoni says “If you are against a Hwei focus on farm and trade back when he waste his Q abilities, watch out for his cc abilities, try to bait those (EQ and EE) for more free trades back, he will poke you a lot so try to dodge those”
gaarrett says “Dodge the fireball, don't stand in the lava. Hwei will likely save his Fear for when you E/E2 at him. Poke with Q, stay as healthy as possible. [4/5] ultimate, ranged AOE slow plus the explosion at the end is pretty neat for skirmishes.”
149Gray says “Hide behind minions while not standing too close to them so you don't get hit by his QQ, stay out of the wave when he uses QE, pool his EQ (fear) if you have to, im pretty sure if his EW starts approaching you, it'll hit you even in pool, so if you think you can't get out of it on time, pool in advance, his R is also really easy to pool. Once he gets his first item, he'll just oneshot the wave with QE and do something on the map (if he's good).”
ImVoxxX says “I played probably 2 or 3 games vs Hwei, but he appears to be like Syndra.
Just try to not get poked down in lane and roam when possible.”
JackOfAllLanes says “Super nerfed right now and your mobility with W and boots rush should counter his whole champ. Make sure you know what's his root and what's his ult to to flash away at the right time. ”
XD001 says “While Hwei's early poke can be annoying early, you can consistently chunk him out of lane after first back if he uses his fleeing spell on the wave. Eventually he will be able to 1 shot the wave from under tower so match his shove and look for plays around the map. Late game you wanna get rocketbelt and find flanks to 1 shot him and other squishies.
take Elec + sorcery page”
Coldsong says “Hwei has annoying poke early, but as long as you dodge his QW and his EQ, he is very easy to burst and kill. Stand away from the wave so that he cannot poke you with his QE and farm at the same time, and punish him for using any of his E abilities, as he has no self-peel while they are on cooldown. His ult is very very strong, but is very slow and can be easy to dodge.”
Fuzzmonkey says “Skill matchup. Don't initiate when he has his E up. He can prevent your W by fearing you when you go in. You do have an advantage at level 6 and a better all in. ”
Fuzzmonkey says “Not a huge threat, but just make sure that when you go to engage him that he's already used something from his 'E' book. This will allow you to get a combo onto him without being CC'ed.
At level 6, same thing. His ult doesn't pose much of a threat unless he can combo it with CC.”
Demonsedge90 says “When playing as Syndra, duelling Hwei is a matchup that you can handle easily. You can pressure him and even go all in when he tries to farm or engage in trades with you. However, it is crucial to remember that Hwei might ask for help from their jungle or teammates to keep up or get ahead. Therefore, it is essential to place wards regularly to avoid getting caught off guard and stay safe while keeping up with the game.”
leonidas44 says “You have everything in your kit to harass him and to go all in to him. Dont stay too much away otherwise he will poke you. Going in is the way to play the match.”
Axsanea says “[EN]
Heavy poke, and difficult to reach, but if you find the right moment you kill him pretty easy.
try to stay a little away from the minions so the AOE of his "Q+Q" doesn't poke you down.
[ES]
Heavy poke y difícil de alcanzar, pero si encuentras el momento adecuado, lo matarás con bastante facilidad.
trata de posicionarte lejos de los minions, para que asi su "Q+Q" no te afecte tanto el AOE que tiene. ”
SurferKiller says “Heavily skill based. He has a fear (E) that he can use very often, but at the same time, he might use the other alternations to his E. Check his abilities and learn his E alternations so that you can play around his cooldowns. That should be your all in ability if he misses. Careful with his long range spell. Treat this matchup as Major in Diamond 2+”
KazunaSan says “J'aurais choisis de mettre le match up Even si son fear ne n'annulait pas votre E mais c'est le cas, le champion est très punitif mais tout de même assez squishy, vous pouvez donc le OS (si vous arrivez à l'atteindre)”
Dustyacer says “He has too much range and wave clear. If you hit ult ontop of him it probably doesn't do anything unlike most other control/artillery mages since he can just use EW or EQ to cc you. Definitely one of the harder mages to play against. Save our E for his R detonation post 6. ”
Lindroganti says “Very not cool. Has shields, speedups, and pretty easy to hit cc. Gonna be very hard to catch this guy and he hurts. Make sure to block his R explosion, some of his cc has a windup so you might be able to jump on him before the cc hits you.”
Wizboy73 says “After playing a lot of games into him im ready to judge it. It really depends on the player, if its a good hwei you cannot do much to influence the lane, he can play ultra safe without mana issues. take poke runes or snowball runes. you DO NOT outscale him, he is a lategame monster when his CD's are low. you have a much better midgame however.”
Shinbae says “Редко попадался мне во врагах, одно можно сказать, что очень тонкий и его абилки легко доджаться, тут только ровность ваших рук уже даёт преимущество перед ним”
lkycch says “Has enough range to poke you down in lane and good waveclearing abilities; Hwei is the perfect mage. You will be constantly under tower when laning against him; try your best to farm until you get Lost Chapter. He is somewhat gankable, because his abilities do have high cooldowns, but a good Hwei will use his CC to deny any gank. Thus, what your strategy should be, is to push wave and roam. In teamfights, he will outshine you simply because of the insane AoE damage he can output; as the game goes on, he gets even stronger. Therefore, try to end the game early by getting your bot lane super fed. Remember: Summoner's Rift is a 5V5, not a 1v1. You don't have to stay in lane and suffer a losing matchup!”
Saddest says “Hwei is extremely squishy and his main defensive tool against you is relatively easy to dodge. Be sure to avoid any unnecessary poke and all in whenever you see an opportunity, it will usually result in a kill or a summoner spell used.”
ShokLoL says “This matchup is actually not too bad if you abuse your comet E max early, but if you fall behind and can't contest the wave it will quickly become miserable. Try abuse early lane and then setup ganks post 6.”
Chuleex says “Hwei has higher range and cc than most mages, he is quite annoying once midgame " early powerspikes come in, dodging him is extremely usefull going mercs can help, and as an inmobile mage once he uses his cds or getting him on a gank is pretty much free kill, look to roam and hexdrinker isnt as strong as he can just poke you whitout overcomiting”
Zeekar says “Relatively predictable cc and you can pretty easily get on top of him. However, he can shove the wave better than you ever could without ever having to interact with you. ”
ShokLoL says “Hwei is an easy 1v1 matchup for Viktor. You should be able to poke him out at all times. Try not to group too heavily with the wave so he has to choose between harassing you or pushing. Play on your range with E to avoid his Q poke.”
Divine Azir says “This matchup is extremely annoying. He has superior range, superior burst, superior mana sustain, and superior CC. His only weakness is mobility, but he can avoid jungle ganks by playing from fountain. Very strong laning phase, lowish mobility. You win by scaling.
① QQ poke does a lot of damage. You have to play behind your minions to avoid it but also far enough away to avoid QE+EE. Take second wind to help sustain his poke so he can't execute you with QW+R. Do your best to match his push, as if you get pushed under turret and your jungler isn't there to help, the match is unplayable. Don't bother trying to fight him early, just use your mana to farm from max range until you hit lvl 6, then pray to the gank gods.
② If Hwei misses his E, don't get baited into all-inning him unless it's a confirmed kill. QQ+WE+R is typically all he needs to 100-0 you (or at least win the trade).
③ Your W+E+Q is not enough to get you out of range of QW. If you get hit by R, it's already too late.”
ShokLoL says “Against Hwei you need to try and keep control of the wave whenever possible, if he gets past the wave and can QQ you for free you'll take a lot of damage. Make sure to stay behind the creeps but slightly to the side so he can't QE + EE you. If he uses all his CDs on the wave, try zone him off or look for a trade. Post 6 try stand a bit further back to avoid his EE as if it hits he'll immediately ult you. Swiftness boots can help a lot here.”

Tips Against Hwei in Adc Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Wunonn says “pretty easy matchup does have alot of waveclear but all you need to do is dodge his fear button and should be able to all in any time. PTA/Lethal”
bluwunk says “Most Mage bots will have you sitting under your tower for a while. Just try to stabilize and use TP efficiently. You can kill hwei if you dodge any of his e abilities by flying onto him most of the time.”
WorldWideADC says “İkinizde aynı şekilde birbirlerinize vuruyorsunuz. Karşıda bir Varus daha var şeklinde düşünebilirsin. Skilleri dodgelaması kolay. Skill matchup.”
aphelioswife says “O Hwei possui um poke muito forte devido ao seu alcance, mas se você conseguir avançar sobre ele, é possível garantir um abate facilmente. Tente farmar safe e jogue dando all in nele.”
Zekeriya says “After the recent mage nerfs its pretty easy. Your W blocks magic dmg (Use if he lands R). You should win every trade in laning phase, don't get poked (Use Second wind or biscuit if you want) ”
gaarrett says “If you don't have engage, farm and ignore. Hwei has the tools to keep you off him and the poke to keep you under tower. Second Wind and Doran's Shield are heavily recommended. ”
Foxirion says “Hwei's mobility and gap-closing abilities can make it tricky for Kog'Maw to kite effectively.
Kog'Maw needs to be mindful of Hwei's all-in potential, especially when his escape abilities are on cooldown.
Proper positioning and good use of crowd control can help Kog'Maw handle threats from Hwei effectively.”
LBDB says “Easy lane to scale but hard lane to force him out or to push into him. You will likely lose minions from him using QE on wave and pushing it hard. Don't fight him level 6, his ability range is better and his 6 can almost always kill you in one go if he doesn't miss. Don't wait until you are low to back if possible, if unavoidable don't back in obvious spots (His Q+W, Lightning.)”
Swenzu says “Maybe not known in lower elo but this champ is so annoying his cc / range / poke is a strong pick vs draven and its playable adc support or mid ”
hellfirelord says “Obnoxious lane. She will poke you hard in lane and she has small cds and good range. Try to force all-ins if you have an all in support or the lane will be hard. Don't forget that you can't do much 1v2 if your supp is bad and you get hit by skillshots, so try to survive laning.”
TianDaMan says “Hwei is a threat to lane against Jinx because her strong early-game poke and zoning potential can prevent Jinx from safely farming and scaling. Additionally, Hwei’s mobility and burst damage make it difficult for Jinx, who lacks escape options, to survive trades or all-ins.”
