Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 9, 2026

Overview

Use (Q) and (W) to poke and zone, forcing Hwei's ADC under turret.
Control bot brush to deny Hwei engage angles and protect your ADC.
Post level 6, leverage (R) for picks or to deter Hwei's all-in attempts.

Trading pattern

Use (W) slow to land (Q) poke, then hold (E) to peel or punish enemy engage.
Deny Hwei brush control to limit their engage angles and protect ADC access.
Sync poke cooldowns with ADC's follow-up to maximize pressure without overextending.

Danger windows

Respect (E) fear/root timing for potential all-ins; hold (E) for peel.
Beware of Hwei and ADC engage combos from bot brush or fog of war.
Post (R) use by Hwei, punish their cooldown window with aggressive poke and zone.

Early game

Win level 2 by coordinating (E) stun with your ADC's engage for early pressure.
Hold bot wave near your turret to keep ADC safe from Hwei's poke and engage.
Ward river and tri-brush before roaming to maintain vision and prevent enemy counterplays.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks (R) for long-range follow-up and pick potential; track its cooldown.
First mana/AP item completion boosts poke damage and wave control; increase lane pressure.
Level 2 (E) stun allows strong peel and counter-engage; use it to secure early trades.

Win conditions

Convert poke pressure into denied enemy ADC positioning and forced recalls.
Set deep river vision to secure dragon control and safe ADC roams.
Use (R) to create picks or disengage, enabling your ADC to safely follow up or reset.
