Hwei vs Qiyana

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Hwei is a high agency artillery mage who must control space with long-range poke and use E spellbook CC to counter Qiyana's all-ins.
Pressure Qiyana early to deny her safe element setups and prevent her from leveraging terrain for burst trades.

Trading pattern

Trade by controlling space with Q poke and hold E root or fear to punish Qiyana's E dash if she commits without lethal threat.
Dodge Qiyana Q element skillshots to force her into unfavorable trades.
Avoid short trades near terrain where Qiyana can follow up with R stun.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Qiyana has terrain access and R available for burst and stun.
Respect Qiyana's E dash when her element and cooldowns are ready to commit.
Avoid extended trades if you have chosen the wrong E spellbook CC against her engage timing.

Early game

Use Q and E spellbook CC to poke and disrupt Qiyana before she can commit with E dash.
Avoid engaging when Qiyana has the correct element ready and is near terrain for R threat.
Maintain lane pressure to reduce Qiyana's chance to roam or set up river fights.

Power spikes

Hwei's level 3 unlocks full spellbook options for poke, shield, and CC, increasing lane control.
Hwei's level 6 R enables strong all-in potential with R.
Respect Qiyana's level 3 element setup and E dash power spike for burst trades and her level 6 R terrain stun.

Win conditions

Use long-range poke and E CC to deny Qiyana safe element setups and punish her E dash cooldowns.
Reach level 6 and leverage R for all-in fights away from terrain to reduce Qiyana's burst threat.
Maintain lane pressure to prevent Qiyana from roaming and snowballing river fights with R.

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