Vex vs Hwei

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Vex is a high agency burst mage who must use her passive fear to control Hwei's long-range poke and avoid giving him safe scaling.
Apply lane pressure early to deny Hwei the calm, controlled lane he wants with his spellbook versatility.

Trading pattern

Initiate trades by landing your passive fear to proc electrocute and burst Hwei down.
Respect Hwei's E spellbook CC; only trade aggressively when it's on cooldown or he has chosen a non-CC E.
Use W shield to absorb poke and E slow to control Hwei's space during trades.

Danger windows

Be cautious when your passive fear is down or baited, as you become vulnerable to Hwei's all-in.
Avoid all-ins without R available since you lack mobility and reset tools.
Watch for Hwei's E spellbook CC timing to avoid getting locked down in trades.

Early game

Use your passive fear to interrupt Hwei's poke attempts and win short trades before level 6.
Punish Hwei if he picks a defensive E spell by engaging quickly before he can react.
Avoid extended fights without your R as you lack mobility and reset options outside it.

Power spikes

Your level 6 R unlocks all-in potential and resets for extended trades.
Your first completed AP burst item significantly boosts kill threat.
Respect Hwei's level 3 when he unlocks full spellbook options and level 6 R for his all-in threat.

Win conditions

Use your passive fear to control and punish Hwei's poke pattern, denying him safe farm.
All-in aggressively at level 6 with R to reset and snowball lane dominance.
Force Hwei into unfavorable trades by punishing wrong E spell choices and cooldowns.

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