Playing as Hwei
Tips to maximize your impact
- Poke with Devastating Fire
Poke with Devastating Fire (QQ) in lane: the fireball explodes on the first enemy hit and adds damage based on their max health.
- Two spells for your signature
Hit the same champion with two damaging spells: Signature of the Visionary (passive) then leaves a signature beneath them that explodes shortly after.
- Pick the right subject
Pick the subject that fits the moment: Devastating Fire (QQ) for damage, Pool of Reflection (WW) to protect your allies, Crushing Maw (EE) to pull a group together.
- Block a path with lava
Block a chokepoint with Molten Fissure (QE): the line of eruptions leaves pools of lava that slow and damage enemies.
- Ult a champion near their team
Cast Spiraling Despair (R) on a champion surrounded by allies: the vision expands around them, slowing harder and damaging nearby enemies before it explodes.
Playing against Milio
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Dodge his fireball
Dodge Ultra Mega Fire Kick (Q): it knocks you back, then explodes behind you and slows you.
- Back off when the campfire's up
Back off when Cozy Campfire (W) follows his carry: they gain attack range and restore health over time.
- Save a CC for after his R
If your team has several CC spells, save one for after Breath of Life (R): it cleanses disabling and immobilizing CC from his nearby allies.
- Go for Milio first
If you can reach him, go for Milio first, especially away from his allies: he has no dash or leap, and without him, his carry loses shields, heals and range.
