Bard vs Hwei

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Control brush to threaten (Q) wall stuns and limit Hwei's poke angles for ADC safety.
Prioritize crashing waves before roaming to keep your ADC protected from Hwei's poke and CC.
Maintain river vision to track Hwei's roam timer and enable mid pressure with (E) portals.

Trading pattern

Trade with meep autos and look for (Q) stuns from brush when ADC can follow immediately.
Hold (W) and (R) to peel or disengage during (E) CC or (R) all-in attempts.
Deny brush and vision to limit Hwei's poke angles and force unfavorable trades.

Danger windows

Respect (E) spellbook CC timing; hold peel and avoid overextension during cooldown.
Beware (R) all-in window; avoid committing without confirmed ADC follow-up.
ADC is vulnerable when you roam without wave crash or river vision; avoid leaving them isolated.

Early game

Win the level 2 race with (Q)+(W) to secure early ADC safety and poke windows.
Deny brush control to reduce Hwei's poke and set up (Q) stun opportunities.
Use wave crash to create safe roam windows with (E), ensuring ADC wave reset and safety.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (Q)+(W) for strong poke and healing trades; use to pressure early.
Level 3 grants (E) for roaming; crash wave first then create numbers advantages.
Level 6 (R) enables picks or disengage; coordinate with ADC for follow-up or objective stalls.

Win conditions

Convert brush control and (Q) stuns into ADC access denial and pick setups.
Use wave crash timing to roam safely with (E), applying mid pressure and securing river vision.
Deploy (R) to isolate targets or stall enemy dives, enabling favorable dragon and teamfight setups.

Tip: For Bard vs Hwei, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Support lane check.
