Playing against Hwei

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Hwei is immobile and squishy — assassins and direct engages punish him easily.

2

His R spreads to nearby allies: don't stay grouped if a teammate is hit by the ult.

3

Most of his spells are skillshots with a delay — move constantly to dodge them.

4

Punish him when his main cooldowns are down — his burst has a notable cooldown between combos.
