Brand into Hweimedium

Overview

Apply Blaze with or before threatening empowered to create ADC follow-up.
Hold engage tools until Hwei commits CC or uses key cooldowns to punish with burst.
Deny brush control to limit Hwei's poke angles and protect your ADC from root or fear.

Respect CC choice timing; avoid clustered fights where root or fear lands.
Beware of Hwei's level 6 all-in window; avoid grouped positioning without ADC peel.
Watch for Hwei's poke angles from brush or fog that threaten your ADC's safety.

Win the level 2 race by combining poke with ADC follow-up for lane priority.
Keep brush warded and deny CC setup to protect your ADC's positioning.
Use wave pressure to enable safe poke windows and delay Hwei's roaming attempts.

Level 2 unlocks poke plus stun setup; use it to force enemy back or zone.
Level 3 full kit enables stronger combos; coordinate with ADC to punish cooldowns.
Level 6 bounce all-in amplifies kill pressure; engage only with confirmed ADC follow-up.

Convert poke damage into dragon setup by maintaining river vision and lane priority.
Use with ADC follow-up to punish grouped enemies and secure bot-side objectives.
Roam after wave crash only when ADC is safe and vision denies Hwei's counter-roams.
