Hwei vs Yone

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Hwei is a high agency artillery mage who must control space with long-range poke and E CC to prevent Yone's engages.
Pressure the lane early to deny Yone's scaling and avoid letting him set up his E + Q trade pattern.

Trading pattern

Control spacing with long-range Q poke and use E CC to interrupt Yone's E + Q combo.
Punish Yone when he uses Yone E from a bad position by following up with E root or fear.
Respect Yone's Yone Q knockup and Yone R for all-in windows; avoid trading when these are available.

Danger windows

Yone is dangerous when Yone E is active for engage and snapback; keep distance and use E CC to punish.
Respect Yone Q third cast knockup and Yone R displacement to avoid lethal trades.
Be cautious if you pick wrong E spell under pressure; it can lead to quick punishment by Yone's burst.

Early game

Use Q and E spellbook CC to poke and disrupt Yone before he hits level 3 power spike.
Avoid extended trades if unsure about E spell choice to prevent being punished by Yone's fast all-ins.
Hold W shield option ready if anticipating Yone's burst trades after he uses Yone E for engage.

Power spikes

Hwei's major spikes: level 3 for full spellbook options, level 6 for R all-in, and first mage item.
Respect Yone's level 3 unlock of Q-W-E combo with shield and his first attack speed item power spike.
Yone's R can instantly turn fights; keep track and avoid all-ins when it's up.

Win conditions

Use long-range poke and E CC to control lane and prevent Yone from safely using his E + Q engage.
Punish Yone's E misuse by locking him down with root or fear and follow up with poke.
Reach level 6 and item spikes to all-in with R and secure lane dominance before Yone scales.
