Playing Hwei

  • Calm down, breathe, and focus.
  • Each stroke requires precision and intention.

Playing against Hwei

  • Hwei needs to predict your positioning and take time to cast, catch him by surprise.
  • Hwei's lightning is deadly but slow; it deals more damage when you are alone or unable to move.
  • After Hwei paints a Torment spell he is vulnerable to being rushed down.
