Thoughts on Hwei

This champion is going to ruffle some feathers. Many people thought that Aphelios’ kit was too much. Hwei is like Aphelios but on steroids. There are going to be a lot of people who are going to be upset that they do not know what he does. That being said, there will be many who love Hwei.

Hwei is truly a champion that will play out the mage fantasy. He can do so much and switch back and forth to be what many wish their DnD mages were. Sure, he will be complicated and probably frustrating to play against initially but all of the combos that he will be able to do should keep people entertained for some time.

Lastly, it feels like they could have snuck him into Heartsteel. There is little doubt that Hwei will be a part of one of the more major skin lines in the near future.
