Would stargazer skinline fit hwei?

Why he's not pick it on pro play?

Hello everyone, long time no see!

I’m ManukHwei, a Hwei OTP playing in the KR Challenger server.

I’ve just released Part 2 of my Hwei Guide, focusing on builds and champion matchups.

About a year ago, I made Part 1, but looking back, it had quite a few flaws and areas where my explanations fell short.

In Part 2, I did my absolute best to fix those issues and deliver a much higher-quality guide.

Just like Part 1, English subtitles are fully supported via YouTube CC.

In this video, I go into detail about my thoughts on every single Hwei build, breaking down which builds work well and which ones don't.

Since build preferences vary from player to player, please take my advice as a reference for how a KR Challenger Hwei views the current options.

The main highlight of this guide is the matchup section.

Compared to Part 1, I’ve expanded the roster to cover matchups against 95 different champions.

For concepts that were difficult to explain in words alone, my stream manager and I recreated the scenarios in custom games to give you clear visual examples.

I truly hope this guide helps you in your games. Knowing it helped you out would make me extremely happy!

Feel free to ask any questions in the comments, and thank you for watching!

Deadlock, Valve's new MOBA, has just released her new hero and I feel like she’s what Riot originally wanted Hwei to be. Riot mentioned that they experimented with a prototype where you could actually paint or draw shapes with your abilities during Hwei's development, but we ended up with a more traditional mage whose abilities, while fun, aren't that different from things we've seen in other champions.

With Violet, you can literally draw paint strokes in the air and use them as barriers, or control the direction of your shots with your mouse, kind of like Wuyang in Overwatch. It actually feels like you're painting, rather than just casting spells that happen to look like paint. I really like Hwei's gameplay, but after playing Violet, I can't help feeling a bit disappointed that Riot didn't take the concept further. I feel like she comes closer to what I originally imagined Hwei would be.

Obviously, they're very different games, but I can't help wondering what we could've gotten.

So i've recently picked up mid lane, on this account i've gone from platinum to diamond the past few months. Ive dabbled with a few champions to see which ones i want to continue playing and invest time in. The one i plan to play the most will likely be Hwei.

So far im winning alot of games on him, i feel like i have a pretty good understanding of teamfighting, when to sidelane etc.

The one thing i dont understand is what i am supposed to do in lane. On some other champs i've played its very clear (like Viktor you play to dominate and his trades are very straight forward, you are basically strong and can contest the enemy on the wave from level 1 for the rest of the lane in 95% of matchups, on Vex ur honestly mostly chilling and holding ur spells defensively, have good wave states to move and such).

Now with Hwei i just dont know what im supposed to do, when i am strong, who i can bully and not. If i have a good matchup, like maybe a lower range mage, is the idea to scale until lvl 6-8 and lost chapter, then you try to play similar to viktors identity of pushing them in and trading? Are you actively looking to trade from early game? Can you do viktors gameplan vs assasins of posturing aggressively and poke them so they cant all in you or do you need to be alot more respectful?

If we compare his laning to other mages, and his isolated 1v1, am i a lane bully? If Viktor is a 10/10 for isolated lane, and ahri is a 3/10. Where does hwei sit?

Something that works for me is just playign scaling runes and fully stonewalling lane by Q-E clearing and basically not doing much... but my inclination is maybe this is a very bad habit and im supposed to do alot more (similar to viktor, would be grief to just sit in africa and lasering the wave in most scenarios unless ur behind or you just dont have a timer).

Assuming the idea is right of looking to bully, roughly when do you become dominant, if we assume good mage matchup and a jungler that doesnt have threat. Or should i be happy stonewalling every lane and just play for teamfighting?

If the idea is right that you sometimes become a lane bully. What are some common way to use your spells aggro? (What i am thinking is: Q-Q poke. E-E + Q-W/Q-Q. And if they are abit low you lead with R -> EW/EE->QQ/QW.

Cheers.

I fell in love with Hwei APC some time ago and have been practicing him in normals.

And I'm happy

I'm 60% winrate Hwei in eune lowmasta, what are your experiences with these champs? MIDLANE TIER LIST

I think I'm legally required to NEVER play Hwei in aram again.

Stuff my friends noticed but I didn't:

- ornn: what the

- immediately going from lv.13 -> lv.15

Death can be as swift as a blink of an eye.

(Rip ASol, you've been a good bait boy)

Ngl it's gonna be a huge loss if I didnt get that triple
Fun champ btw. Really love to play him

Nunca fui do tipo que vou atrás da kill, é notório já que eu usei o flash e o escudo para ir embora, mas tem momentos... Haha

O pulinho foi o charme

Literally just got my crap ran in and I literally played lane flawlessly. Didn't die, had higher CS, but couldn't go in and kill and actually hit the turret at ALL. Support was playing the best she could too. We were Zeri + Nami.

It feels like he has everything:

• CC (Root,Fear)
• Peel
• MS amp
• Damage
• Shield (unless that's just Yumi on him)
• Infinite Range

It's either he's just a hard counter to Zeri specifically in botlane, or Yuumi is more broken on him than on Zeri, or APC is still busted for no reason after months of this. I can't tell what's the cause.

I hope I'm an idiot and there's actually easy counterplay to him, but fuck I have no clue. It was so infuriating, going through lane just fine but never able to do anything because he gets back to lane faster than I can even if we do outtrade him, teamfights are a no go bcs he can pop off while his team goes in, etc etc.

I usually ban Cait but I might permaban Hwei just cuz of this game, it was genuinely uninteractable. If I ban him I can play into Cait, just push the lane fast always and hope we don't die. But she's good into supports specifically not letting them move, so any advice to beat Hwei APC would be appreciated. I've never run into him in botlane before besides supp and hopefully it was just a goated duo and I never run into that again in my life.

I ended the game 1/2/5, highest CS in the game (273 @ 28:58) bcs I was trying to outscale SOMEHOW. If anyone needs the game replay or other stuff lmk, I'm not sure how to do that but I need help, DESPERATELY

Hello! I just joined, as in start playing League, about a day ago, and I’m using Hwei. Any sort of advice would be very appreciated, whether about Hwei and how to use him, or League in general. So far, a sort of strategy I have is to stay in middle lane and try play defensively, and push forward if nobody else is nearby, but I am happy to hear of other things I can do.😅

So I've been playing League for about two years, and I'll admit I suck. I ping-pong between low silver and high bronze. I think my main issue is just knowledge about the game. Like, I can't tell you what a single item does or what wave management means. That being said I was looking at some websites from googling league of legends coaching and all the coaches are always men. I get it. It's league. It's mostly men but as a woman who has had some weird interactions in the past, I would prefer a female coach. Also preferably someone not insanely expensive, as I'm a poor resturant server, but I know that might be too much to ask for when I'm already being picky about gender.

Am I shit out of luck or are there websites that have some female as well as male coaches?

Yo anyone got some sick custom skins to use for hwei kinda getting bored of his norm skins

Audio did NOT survive webm to mp4 conversion teehee

I'm really enjoying Hwei top
bonus: Yone told me to "toasterbath[sic]" at the end when they surrendered 5-0

also yes, lillia did kill me at the end, but i wasted like 15 seconds of her time lmao

I’ve been tryna figure out what would be a good design for Hwei’s brush if I were to give my go at designing him a Heartsteel inspired skin. So far my idea was to include a speaker showing an audio icon changing color depending on which ability is in use, which would turn to a “no audio” icon when no abilities are cast. I can’t tell if this is tryna fit in too much maybe? Any feedback is welcome 😊
