How to win lane as Blitzcrank against Hwei · 50.65% win rate over 3,019 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Blitzcrank | You win level 1 because your Q Rocket Grab threatens the squishy immobile Hwei who can't escape. |
| Level 2 | Blitzcrank | You win level 2 as your grab plus E Power Fist burst him before his combo spells are ready. |
| Level 3 | Blitzcrank | You win level 3 because his lack of mobility keeps him in constant danger of your hook. |
| Levels 4-5 | Blitzcrank | You win level 4 since your pick threat forces him back and limits his poke against your duo. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 5 is skill as his W poke and E disengage begin to zone your walk-up grabs. |
| First item | Even / skill | First item is even skill because a landed hook kills him but his CC can peel a careless commit. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | Late game stays skill: one grab deletes Hwei, but his layered poke and disengage kite your all-in when Q is down. |
You win the early lane: Hwei is a fragile, dash-less mage who needs to layer spells for damage, so your level-2 Q Rocket Grab plus E Power Fist knockup punishes any walk-up and a single hook can delete him before his combos come online.
