How to beat Hwei as Renata Glasc: the early game

You own levels 1-2: Hwei has no reliable early lock and your W-into-ADC engage plus Bailout safety net means a level-2 dive on him is high-reward. Trade aggressively before he assembles his three-spell web. His reach beats yours at every level, so hold position and let your carry farm behind the wave. Tether him only once he has committed a cast, mark him with an auto in the gaps, and keep the shield for his follow-up rather than the opening piece of it.
