How to win lane as Hwei against Soraka · 51.57% win rate over 413 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Hwei | Level 1 favours you: stronger E-Q poke against Soraka's weak Starcall and self-costing heals. |
| Level 2 | Hwei | Level 2 is yours: you spike to two abilities and punish her HP-negative healing. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3 evens as her Silence and heals give her real trading and disrupt tools. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 stay skill: her sustain matches your poke, so it comes down to landing E. |
| Level 6 | Hwei | Level 6 swings to you: your R burst-plus-zone beats her reactive Wish healing. |
| First item | Hwei | First item favours you: item poke forces her to self-cost heal faster than she recovers. |
| Two+ items | Hwei | 2+ items stay yours: no engage and only reactive heals let your R keep setting picks. |
Levels 1-2 are yours: Soraka's Starcall poke is weak and her Astral Infusion literally costs her own HP, so you shove, hit 2 first, and punish every heal by trading her below what she spent. Land E-Q and she can't win the HP war.
