This Hwei burst mage build is optimized for players looking to maximize their impact in League of Legends.

Choose this build when your team needs magic damage, especially if teammates are primarily AD-focused. Hwei with this build can punish teams that stack armor. Consider the enemy team composition when finalizing your situational items to maximize Hwei's effectiveness.
