Hwei's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Signature of the Visionary (P)

Hwei primes enemy champions he damages with his abilities for his signature finishing touch.Hitting an enemy with a second damaging spell completes his signature, leaving it beneath them. The signature detonates after a short delay, dealing magic damage to all enemies in range.

Playing as Ezreal

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Land as many Qs as you can

    Land Mystic Shot (Q) as often as you can: each hit lowers all your cooldowns and adds a Rising Spell Force (passive) stack.

  2. Detonate the orb with a spell

    Detonate Essence Flux (W) with a spell rather than an auto: the orb deals its damage either way, but a spell refunds its mana cost plus a bonus.

  3. Save your E to escape

    Save Arcane Shift (E) to escape unless the kill is certain: it's your only way to reposition, on a 26 to 14 second cooldown.

  4. Finish across the map

    Cast Trueshot Barrage (R) across the map to finish a fleeing target: it hits everything in its line, but deals less to minions and non-epic monsters.

Playing against Hwei

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade after his damage spell

    Trade after he uses a damage spell: Devastating Fire (QQ), Severing Bolt (QW) and Molten Fissure (QE) share a 10 to 6 second cooldown.

  2. Don't stand still or alone

    Don't stand still or alone: Severing Bolt (QW) strikes after a delay and deals more damage to isolated or immobilized enemies.

  3. Jump on him if you can

    If you can engage, jump on him right after one of his CC spells: Hwei has no dash or leap, and Subject: Torment (E) has a 12 to 10 second cooldown.

  4. Move away from the ally hit by his R

    If an ally is hit by Spiraling Despair (R), move away from them: the vision expands around its target, slows and damages nearby enemies, then explodes.
