r/HweiMains

I don't use many characters with fear, and only started playing Hwei this month, but it has happened to me many times. I use EQ on a target and instead of running away they run towards me, slowed, but still towards me. This is really frustrating because in many cases those few steps can change the outcome of a fight and make a difference between enemies getting in range or not.

It is not the case for this clip tho, this was just an overstay to chase a dumb kill. Still it happened today, so it is the most recent example I could find.

Why does this happen? Is it a bug or is this intended behaviour? Does it happen consistently? Is it because Xin was animation locked in his W?

Hey everyone!

My name is Evandabank and I'm a content creator known for playing Hwei in NA high elo. I’ve reached Challenger in each of the past three seasons/splits while experimenting with every build (CDR, full-pen, enchanter, and more).

Hwei is one of the most complicated mages in the entire game, yet there are surprisingly few comprehensive resources for learning him. I decided to make a Hwei guide covering my item builds, runes, combos, along with general strategy on Hwei's identity and playstyle.

I primarily play Hwei APC these days, though I still play Hwei mid on occasion. Both roles are included in this guide.

I'm happy to answer any and all questions you might have about my builds and playstyle!

so with Your Shop coming out, I got winterblessed hwei and he is by far my FAVORITE SKIN EVER

I love the way all his abilities look frosted and cold, they did such a good job on making him feel chilly! and his FLEETING CURRENT I absolutely adore how it shows his model reflected off the water/ice and its RAINBOW-Y!

AND HIS RECALL? his ice skating feels so elegant and with his mirror self, the weight of the model is just so pretty and weightless

its genuinely just such a beautiful skin, I dont even get mad at bad plays or silly teammates because hes just so gorgeous to look at 😭😭

despite this being among many purple hweis, I feel like it suits him so perfectly here!! its both the perfect mix of serenity and brooding, finding peace in being alone, he wears it so well.

with that being said though, I absolutely would love for more hwei skins showing off his other emotions!! I want a red hwei so bad to show off his destruction! let him break and burn everything down! ofc hes brooding and moody, perfectly tortured- but I want to see all the other facets of him showcased and exaggerated!

thanks for letting me gush

Rank 1 hwei italy ( and euw ) Francesco Giuseppe Antonucci alas Kestrel / kestrelloz just announced his retire from league due to a rare illness getting worse.
I decided to translate and share his words in case some english speaking fans lost the news since soon they will find themselves without content, without contest and just this explanation, also i think his words truly hit me i no cap got emotional about it, i’m so sad he made this decision.
What is truly depressing is his decision to “set as private” videos and live streams because “…i want people to remember for how strong i was and not how weak i am…- …i’ll set as private video and streams since i’ll probably rewatch them from time time as a nostalgic remembrance, but they wont be public anymore, if no one remembers me than it means i simply wasn’t important enough, for thise who will remember me: you are cursed, you now carry my memory, and thus a burden, you are now forced to live also on my behalf, my situation will get worse soon so i won’t be able to, this means that you’ll have to experience all emotions twice, once on my behalf.”

Here’s the full text

“Salve a tutti, a seguito di un peggioramento della mia malattia (LES), non riesco più a giocare a league come un tempo, e dunque non riesco a mantenere un alto livello di gameplay, per questo preferisco ritirarmi prima di mostrare un brutto spettacolo, così la gente mi ricorderà fortissimo (xD).
Per alcuni potrà sembrare patetico ma ormai non provo gioia nè interesse a essere riconosciuto come il miglior hwei italiano o europeo, sono felice di aver raggiunto vette altissime e aver giocato contro giocatori più forti di me; lottare per mantenere il titolo è divertente ma realizzi presto che prima o poi dovrai smettere e qualcuno prenderà il tuo posto, quindi non pensate che io fossi molto attaccato al titolo ma per piacere ricordatemi per quello e ricordatemi forte.

Mi ritiro da league of legends, dal coaching e dallo scenario competitivo; mi ritiro anche da tutti i social e ho deciso di rendere privati i video e le live pubblicate. Li renderò solo privati, senza eliminarli, perché potrei voler rivedere il passato come ricordo personale ma nessuno potrà accedervi, “beauty fades, this is why it’s beatiful” se tutto rimanesse per sempre available a chiunque allora la mia storia perderebbe di significato, se a nessuno è rimasto impresso il mio nome allora non sono stato importante abbastanza, a coloro a cui il mio nome rimarrà impresso : siete maledetti con il fardello della mia storia, portatela avanti, vivete anche per me, prima o poi la malattia mi renderà un broccolo inetto, vivete al posto mio che non potrò, provate tutte le emozioni due volte, una anche per me.

Kestrelloz siete voi, francesco antonucci è solo un nome e un volto, siete voi ad avermi reso quello che sono.”

Translated with google translater :

“Hello everyone, due to a worsening of my disease (SLE), I can no longer play League like I used to, and therefore I can't maintain a high level of gameplay. That's why I prefer to retire before putting on a poor show, so people will remember me as a great player (xD). It may seem pathetic to some, but I no longer feel joy or interest in being recognized as the best Italian or European hwei. I'm happy to have reached the highest peaks and played against players stronger than me. Fighting to retain the title is fun, but you quickly realize that sooner or later you'll have to stop and someone will take your place. So don't think I was too attached to the title, but please remember me for that and remember me strongly. I'm retiring from League of Legends, coaching, and the competitive scene. I'm also retiring from all social media, and I've decided to make my published videos and live streams private. I'll only make them private, without deleting them, because I might want to revisit the past as a personal memory, but no one will be able to access it. "Beauty fades, that's why it's beautiful." If everything remained forever available to anyone, then my story would lose its meaning. If no one has remembered my name, then I haven't been important enough. To those who remember my name: you are cursed with the burden of my story, carry it forward, live for me too. Sooner or later, illness will make me a useless broccoli. Live in my place, because I can't. Experience every emotion twice, once for me too.
Kestrelloz is you. Francesco Antonucci is just a name and a face. You are the ones who made me who I am.”

All the champions I've played against before. Please share your experience if you'd place some of them in an other tier, I would love to hear it!
