Ryze vs Hwei

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Ryze faces a high-pressure poke and control mage who uses long-range spells to dominate early lane phases.
Prioritize managing mana and wave control to avoid giving Hwei free poke or all-in windows.

Trading pattern

Use E and Q to trade only when you have mana and W available to lock down Hwei after he commits.
Punish Hwei's incorrect E spell choice by engaging with W root and following up with Q damage.
Avoid extended trades if Hwei keeps distance with long-range poke or has defensive E ready.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Hwei has E spellbook fear or root available as it can disrupt trades and set up all-ins.
Avoid trading when low on mana or when W root is on cooldown, as Ryze's threat drops sharply.
Hard push and ping danger if Hwei roams after level 6 to punish his absence safely.

Early game

Focus on farming safely while using E and Q to poke when Hwei mispositions or uses the wrong E spell.
Avoid stepping up without W ready to punish Hwei's defensive E or poke combos.
Respect Hwei's early poke and hold W to root and punish any overextensions.

Power spikes

Ryze's first mana/AP item significantly boosts damage and mana sustain for trades.
Level 6 R enables impactful map plays, shifting pressure beyond lane.
Respect Hwei's level 3 power spike when all spellbooks unlock full poke and control options.

Win conditions

Scale through safe farming and use W root to punish Hwei's missteps or wrong E spell choices.
Use waveclear and R to create side pressure and force Hwei to respond.
Deny Hwei a calm lane by controlling cooldown windows and preventing him from safely landing poke or all-ins.

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