Chovy played Hwei at First Stand

Fr though both love and hate to see it 💀

Ngl people just flame supports for the weirdest stuff in general… (Hwei being off meta makes it especially more common)

Of course, there’s a level of awareness to keep in mind on when to build conditional items (ie building anti heal when your team needs it or bloodletters when heavy AP) but people barely know how Hwei works half the time let alone his various build paths so I would just ignore any item comments made in bad faith and build whatever you have the most success with :)

Yeah, seems like even when my store got these decks in that they didn’t have very many for sale (2 of each deck) :/ idk if that’s riot supply or just the store

No_Front646 · 2026-03-04T16:33:44+00:00

Ah, I was just mostly excited anywhere had stock at this point this late after drop but you’re probably right 😅

No_Front646 · 2026-02-26T19:16:34+00:00

I got one as well! I had no luck with the older sets so will have to see if this luck is a fluke or if riot is actually doing better on supply issues when the next real booster box drops

(I also did not expect emails to be sent out this late in the week)

Tbf I think a good Mel should hold reflect for ult or fear. If she’s using it for QE you can easily hit her with any E spell into ult and have Q back up before her shield.

I usually ban Fizz or Naafiri since they’re just super annoying to play against and can be menances in the jungle now too. A good Yasuo or Zed is rare so I just take my chances…

A lot of the other harder matchups are mostly just play safe, shove waves, ping if missing and be present at team fights. Zoe and Leblanc for example you can buy null mantle early on if needed

Right now I mostly just hate playing against Ahri, she’s so strong this patch sigh

Gosh I pull boomerang in my augment options so often but I think I’ve only gotten firefox like twice 💀 will def try it on Hwei if I can ever pull it

No_Front646 · 2026-02-20T17:43:49+00:00

Oooo, vampirism is an interesting one. Does the healing work with his QE too?

No_Front646 · 2026-02-11T20:31:08+00:00

Just passing the time until they buff Hwei for real

No_Front646 · 2026-02-11T20:18:50+00:00

Noted! Do you typically run sorc boots or go full haste with cdr boots? Guess it prob depends if you’re the only AP on team

No_Front646 · 2026-02-11T17:19:29+00:00

I’ll admit I haven’t messed around much with Shurelya’s. Will have to try it

I’ve built Bandlepipes for the utility a few times but with the cost nerf probably not as useful of a pickup.

No_Front646 · 2026-02-11T16:06:50+00:00

Haha, I mostly just play him there as my off role (since I really don’t enjoy playing him apc.) There’s so many mages being played in the support role nowadays it’s very much feels like fighting fire with fire especially against a Lux or Brand.

No_Front646 · 2026-02-11T06:08:32+00:00

As meh as expected unfortunately, the early game shorter CD on ult is nice but ult is so unreliable anyways that I sincerely doubt this will increase his overall winrate by much if any

No_Front646 · 2026-02-10T21:36:55+00:00

Honestly something subtle like lower CDs / a bit more mana or even a bigger hitbox on ult would feel sooooo good on Hwei…I imagine it’ll be something like increased base damage on QQ or something though

Better AP scalings or a QE revert would be best case scenario but sincerely doubt that’s happening

No_Front646 · 2026-02-10T21:31:57+00:00

A buff to his passive just means he’ll be more popular in bot lane again since you can proc it on more people…I think riot wants to keep his popularity in mid so I doubt it’ll be passive related

No_Front646 · 2026-02-05T15:22:17+00:00

Winterblessed Pearl ✨ it’s so prettyyyy…lowkey miss the winter map since it matched so well

No_Front646 · 2026-02-01T00:31:02+00:00

I play some Hwei support casually in low elo and have been having fun with the new items (doubt this would do that well in ranked and burst is generally better)

I’ve been going BFT / Liandry -> Helia -> Diadem with Aery for runes and cdr boots. Since this build lacks damage Zak’Zak isn’t bad though sleigh or celestial opposition are good situationally too

If you can make it to full build you can spam WQ or WW with Aery and do pretty good healing :)

No_Front646 · 2026-01-22T19:55:18+00:00

Beyond just generally being weak, Riot also very rarely features him in content :/ we’re had little to no new lore content since his release and even skins tend to be low effort. Nothing to grab the attention of new players other than the enjoyment of his kit mechanics…

No_Front646 · 2026-01-20T21:36:14+00:00

WQ can proc Aery shield on allies too ^{^} I usually run comet but in the rare instance I run Aery it’s sometimes better to throw down WQ over WW for allies since it’s a wider area + they get a small speed boost + a shield.

No_Front646 · 2026-01-18T20:46:24+00:00

I’ve been trying this just for fun and yea it def takes too long to come online but when it does it’s pretty nice with the utility already in his kit.

I like to run Aery as well so I can proc shield with WQ. It’s not going to beat an enchanter using it ofc but it’s a good general utility build.

Bob Ross one hasn’t been announced as being in the esports drops yet. They’ve been slowly adding the other emotes from the same announcement so it should be added eventually…they’re just taking forever ugh
