Hwei Matchups Overview

Hwei General information

Hwei tips and tricks

Fight in areas of the map that are quite tight, as this allows you to deal a lot of AOE damage.

Playing around your Ultimate Spiraling DespairR and Subject: TormentE, especially in the mid and late game, is really important.

When possible, try to abuse the enemy with auto-attacks, as this will help you win trades. But in the Support role, you are mostly a poke champion.
