Who Wins the Hwei vs Vex Matchup?

Hwei vs Vex Matchup Summary
The Hwei vs Vex matchup is a moderate matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 44 recent matches analyzed, Vex wins with a 52.3% win rate compared to Hwei's 47.7%, giving Vex a 4.5 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Vex controls the early laning stage, but Hwei outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Vex needs to press advantages before Hwei reaches their power spikes, while Hwei should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in sustain, where Vex leads by 169 HP/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. While Vex is slightly favored, Hwei can absolutely win this lane through smart trading patterns and wave management. Focus on playing around your cooldowns, conceding CS only when necessary, and capitalizing on Vex's mistakes. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Best Hwei Build Against Vex
Spellslinger's Shoes is the optimal boots choice against Vex, providing the mobility and stats Hwei needs most in this matchup.

Early Game vs Late Game
Vex dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 55.6% win rate — a 11.1 percentage point lead over Hwei. This lopsided early game means Vex can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.
Late game (25+ minutes) is equally balanced, with Hwei at 50.0% win rate — only 0.0 points ahead of Vex. Team fight execution and macro play determine the winner at this stage, not champion matchup advantage.
The power dynamics shift as the game progresses — Vex has the edge early, but Hwei gradually takes over. However, the margins are slim enough that either champion can win at any stage with the right plays. Focus on taking advantages when you have them rather than waiting for a specific game phase.
