Thank god you got your video out. I tried to watch Zwag for once and went insane with his commentary. Glad to have someone who knows the game speak on him.
@@PekinWoof I exclusively watch you because of your commentary style (for league content) informative, calm, educational. Not over edited. Same reason I enjoy pekinwoof 2 content. Just chill vibes with a shit ton of education on the game of league with a stable mental.
I noticed his toxicity when I watched him live once. It's not constant but still enough that I now find him unappealing to watch. You never see it in his main videos that he uploads because those are the ones where he gets fed @@momosbar7829
A couple of notes and stuff you missed/misunderstood QW only gains the execute bonus damage on targets that are isolated or immobilized EW places the field, if a champ walks into it the field activates and shoots a projectile that doesn't go through minions and roots. It's more of an area control and vision option than anything.
EW is also a fantastic trap option for forced/predictable movement. Here, for example, you can set it up on Zoe R return location to force a root and combo it into easy QQ or QW + P nuke, depending on distance. If you spice that up with WE bonus damage, you can really chunk her. Generally just placing EW and hoping for the enemy to walk into it doesn't seem to be worth much. Deny or entrap with it.
First non-enchanter mage since vex over 2 years ago, and before her the last one was neeko in 2018! He looks so fun, can’t wait to try him and the new items too!
The way I'm trying to remember his abilities is all of his Q2, W2, E2, etc have the same shape, if that makes sense. Q2s are skillshots, W2s are AoE circles, E2s are pretty unique so probably just have to remember those. Combined with the Q = damage, W = Utility, E = CC you can form your spells in your head that way. For example: QQ is a damaging skillshot EW is CC in a circle area EQ is a CC skillshot WQ is a utility "skillshot" etc.
@@lcintra_ Sets up, _not sets up and procs by itself._ Theoretically and unless there are any hidden modifiers changing it, it could set up (or proc, if you set the mark with a different ability) up to three instances of your passive, as long as you proc it fast enough. Edit: obviously, this would be really hard to time in practice. The only hard requirement is that the ability that places the mark is a different one to the one that procs the mark. In theory, it seems that for example a QQ couldn't proc a mark placed with another QQ, even if you got enough AH. Another is WE that can't proc itself.
Yeah, EE is definitely more reliable than EQ. Bigger hit box, more damage and effect multiple target Edit : oops, i was wrong a little, they have the same damage 😁
I really love the fight in game one where viego gets on top of you cause it looks like you canceled your q ability using r, and really shows how the kit can fail in a panic situation if you hit the wrong key. Such an interesting playstyle to work around with this champ with the decisions you have to make every fight.
He's perfect for literally everyone because he has abilities for every situation possible. This champ will be a balancing nightmare. Either too op and free win, or they'll have to nerf the numbers to where he's useless. Gonna be insane trying to balance a champ with almost 3 kits in one lmao! I bet he becomes perma ban instantly.
I think what makes a good hwei player are the cancel paintbrush mechanic you can like toggle but not cast so you keep switch from utility to CC to damage and confuse your enemy since I see it has no CD and no mana spent
Doesn't sound very useful to just sit on a brush to confuse enemy etc, except maybe sitting on purple because you can threaten insta q if they try to engage
Coming back to watch this again and I REALLY REALLY LIKE that you were occasionally saying what ability you were doing. Like, "OK, E-Q, then Q-W," Etc....was really helpful for this champ
the eye is intended for checking bushes i think. Also they wanted him to be weak when jumped on as having a weakness. Looks like a really cool combo zoning mage and isn't as complicated as he seems on first sight. Cant wait to try him.
I think one major thing to get used to with him is WE before an all in and just using it as often as you can when poking & clearing waves. It gives back more mana than you spend and is bonus damage on your AA’s and abilities.
Hwei looks right up my alley and I'm loving the new items. I appreciate you showing the changes to PBE so often, Pekin; there's not a lot of people with your knowledge making videos like this.
@@JayCJr_I'm actually going to agree with OP here since Viktor's E goes out in a line and then explodes. Sure, it sticks around like Vel'Koz W, not wrong there. But Viktor's E is the same visual effect.
This is my first look at the new LoL changes, I'm glad you took the time to at least mention them evne if you did not go into to much detail about everything. This feels like a breath of fresh air for the game! Many interesting things! I'm more hyped about this than when the mythic items were annonced.
Please upvote this comment, him saying he doesn't know what to compare it to when he makes good comparisons for every other ability is driving me a little crazy xD
He said something similar where you also press E and cast a fissure like ability. Velkoz W is not on E. All comparions were on the same button. I guess you could say Kogmaw E though he forgot that
YES DUDE, I saw the reveal on the actual league client and I was praying you were gonna release a video because I was so damn confused at his abilities
15:09 since shadowflame got the Infinity orb effect from Wild Rift, does this mean you can go crit dot teemo as well? Idk if its as powerful or not but seeing the dot just shred is satisfying.
22:25 am I tripping or did Pekin fire a QQ, then Q was up again so he queued Q again (you can see the lightning bolt on W a bit)? Then idk what happened right before Viego ult and sera ult but the Q ability flashes from 5 to reset like 2 times🤷♂️🤷♂️ maybe a new item that refunds ally abilities (the abilities refreshed CD after sera’s ult passed over pekin)
Jhin/Hwei quest gives Hwei 3.33% magic penetration and Jhin 4.444 lethality ! Also Malignance is a lot better, because you should use your ult as an opener, like a Fizz ult. And having ult CD is broken af since your ult enables you.
That’s a fun interaction Yea I think so aswell, opening with ult is insane, especially against immobile champs as you can easily land the lightning bolt after
This guy gives me Invoker vibes and with the map changes making it seem a bit bigger with more options tells me there might be some dota influence this patch.
Looks like a really cool champion actually, I like how they made the skillset like a spellbook, and the champion doesn't seem straight up broken and cheap, so this might be really fun to play! The map changes are cool too, playing botlane normal games with buddy will be a change on red side though, overstaying can be punished way more, probably. (At least from what I have seen so far)
I can confidently say that this champ is beyond my skill level. I don't think I have the hand dexterity to play them. The crazy new changes to like, everything though, is pretty exciting, even though I'm gonna be a super noob trying to retrain my brain yet again. EDIT: Completely agree about items not just being stat sticks. Sooo much more fun to theorycraft
Yea also many ap assassins I think akali and Ekko are gonna build this first item as they can easily deal 35% early with one item Maybe Leblanc even, if she isn’t gonna go the new lethality energized item that stacks energized 75% faster with dashes and blinks etc
For a burst combo try out: WE => EQ/EE => Ult => QW | Harder to hit, combos a bit slower (delayed damage by 1 sec), does more damage when target is isolated/immobilized also has a execute based on missing health. WE => EQ/EE => Ult => QQ | Easier to hit, combos faster (damage is not delayed), does less damage. You are always going WE when poking or comboing for a kill due to the increased damage it provides, pick your Q's and E's depending on if you can even hit them too, if minions are in the way use the skills that you can target a location not a skill shot obviously lol. EQ: Single Target EE: AoE Target If ult is up always use it 3rd, provides an amazing slow that helps to hit your Q's Poke in lane: WW => QE => Auto => Auto | QE provides a 30% slow to the target making it easier to get those 2 auto attacks off for WW damage and mana regen in lane, QQ is fine too, you just won't have that slow and might miss out on auto attacks. WW => EW => Auto => QW/WW => EW => QQ => Auto | You are just banking on them walking to close to the EW to get rooted with this one, might be good when he releases and people haven't played against him or understand his kit. The rest of his kit is really just utility imo WQ: Great for split pushing, rotating WW: Useful in lane to help mitigate being poked down, makes it easier to farm safely EW: Good for checking brushes/fog of war. Can be used to poke in lane as well or block off areas for control. QE: If you build Rylai's it's a 30% slow that can block off a large area as well.
Furthermore to add on to this even if she got hit by it during her E she would still finish her dash since roots do not interupt dashes. I wanted to add thi since he in his video said that he wanted to use it to stop her dash but that is neither possible with his root nor fear. Only kinds of cc that stop a dash are displacement like knock back or knock up, or abilities with the knock down effect.
Stormsurge Rengar, the idea is w into empowered w to quickly burst 35% health out of enemies then strike it to deal bonus damage, built path should be stromsurge into shadowflame then w/e (deathcap?). I think managing your stack is really key in this rengar build, as in you should R and look for squishies in 3 stack for w-> empowerd w. Should be fun to try in top or jungle because the burst potential seems scary
Looking at the new mage items, I think AP Twitch is going to be a menace. Shadowflame making magic + true damage crit (And even more for DOT) is really going to make him hurt
Genuine question. Do the damage scale off the numbers of points in an ability base of the initial cast or the second cast. For example. If you press Q+W but have maxed out Q and not W what type of damage do you get.
I can tell the first 3 games of this champ are gonna feel awful, and then once you can intuitively choose what ability you need it's going to be so fun.
@@Kyle-nm1kh it looks like its intended to give vision more than it is a root. i think the root is mainly if you have a well placed EW to combo off of. but other than that its mainly vision/area control
WW QW is a decent poke combo is youre retreating for the bonus damage on root,, then you can turn and Q W them like kogmaw. If your WE is up it helps with the kog like ability because its really pretty long.. other than that its literally just W E prep for QQ and EQ or EE if you can hit it, they do the same damage just easier to land the larger skill shot.. hes really pretty easy to use, your passive is where the damage can really start to ramp because its 2 damaging abilities and you have a lot
New Shadowflame looking 👀 Also, super excited for Hwei and all the new changes for season 2024! He looks like an amazing champion for me to master, love his aesthetics, the control/artillery mage play style, and spell versatility
I can see WE R QE EE being insane in teamfights if you can land it. WE EQ QQ/QW seem like the bread and butter combos for single targets depending on if they're low or not
18:30 Q E is literally kogmaw E pretty similar. And 19:00 your only slight hope would have been W Q, EE and probably barrier and run. You don't gain the full shield amount instantly for WW its half then half over time its kinda just for supporting a teammate or like a karthus ult where it can build up
I lover that you know what the champion does, you know how enoying is when the streamer is all the video figuring out what it does instead of read the abilities
god the ability leveling is so weird to me lmao so im only 10 mins in, apologies if pekin mentions it but i noticed an abilitys CD and mana are the only things fully affected by leveling that ability, the rest is based on the button u cast it with wtf like if u use QW (the xerath W), its CD and mana cost are decided by the Q level, but the damage and damage amp are based on W's level, same for like the WE, the CD and mana cost are dictated by the level of W, but the damage and mana return are dictated by the level of E, so if u level E but not W, it gives a bunch of extra mana without the cost going up which seems kinda epic balls i think
TL:DR Passive - Leblanc Q effect, any ability marks, another one detonates Q Q - Karma Q Q W - Xerath W Q E - Vel'koz W W Q - Old Galio Q, basically a straight aoe line that gives move speed and no damage W W - Millio W, but stationary and shields everyone (no healing) W E - Nami E E Q - Fiddlesticks Q, but a projectile, not target E W - Swain W, but roots if an enemy touches it E E - Sett E, but Malzahar Q projectile R - Fizz R but shorter range and doesn't knock up
The damage and with the burst execute ability seems a bit overturned. Looks really fun otherwise. I'm just not sure if all his abilities are going to see play.
Qq for damage, qw for range execute, qe for wave clear, wq movement speed, ww for shields, we for mana regen, eq for disengage, ew for area control and vision, ee for group cc. I think every single one will be used. Obviously disproportionately, but st8ll
I was confused about that. The damage in the tooltip kept increasing unexpectedly and for most of the game it says the same damage as QQ. So how does it work exactly?
I feel like you're really underutilizing EE tbh lol seems really dam good and fairly ez to land. Also EW gives vision just like Swain W. Also EW is a projectile it looks like so Camille dodged with R
Did Pekin get First Blood? Game 1: Nope First Blood was by ally Master Q around the 4:27 mark. Game 2: Nope First Blood was by enemy Akali around the 40:57 mark. Pekin's First Bloods: 23 Allies' First Bloods: 57 Enemies' First Bloods: 57 Win streak: 0 Lose streak: 6 Highest win streak: 3 Highest lose streak: 23 Total games registered: 137
imagine the main riven after spending so long trying to learn how to make those hard wall jumps and now they change the map like this xD
Oh god I didn't think about that
hi im that guy
i loathe riven players
And also ekko, but i guess it is harder to jump walla w/ riven
So, who else is thinking that these map changes are an indirect buff to talon ?
Thank god you got your video out. I tried to watch Zwag for once and went insane with his commentary. Glad to have someone who knows the game speak on him.

nice
Hwei ult feels like something you open the combo with instead of closing it out
It's designed to be that way bro, it slows hella making it so you hit your stuff easier 👍
Yea like a fizz ult
It also constantly sets up his passive, IIRC.
@@qwormuli77 It sets one stack of his passive, you still have to hit another one to proc it
@@lcintra_ Sets up, _not sets up and procs by itself._ Theoretically and unless there are any hidden modifiers changing it, it could set up (or proc, if you set the mark with a different ability) up to three instances of your passive, as long as you proc it fast enough.

Edit : oops, i was wrong a little, they have the same damage 😁
@@hohuy1469 it's slower though and has less range
@@powerfixationit’s technically faster at max range because no travel time, I prefer it than EQ also it’s AOE, easier to hit

You guys are smoking, its exactly like kog E
It's legit Rumble R though.
It’s KogMaw E
This is my first look at the new LoL changes, I'm glad you took the time to at least mention them evne if you did not go into to much detail about everything.
This feels like a breath of fresh air for the game! Many interesting things! I'm more hyped about this than when the mythic items were annonced.
Say what you will about riot, but they definitely won’t let the game go stale
"Its like a range nunu ult"
My brother in Christ that's just a fizz ult
An example for the fissure is Kog'Maw E, thats why its on E.
Pekin was the one i will go to watch gameplay whenever a new champion comes out. 💪
18:20 that fissure on his W is literally Velkoz E so it's an exception on what reflects it's origin
Please upvote this comment, him saying he doesn't know what to compare it to when he makes good comparisons for every other ability is driving me a little crazy xD
He said something similar where you also press E and cast a fissure like ability. Velkoz W is not on E. All comparions were on the same button.
I guess you could say Kogmaw E though he forgot that
That wide opening bot side for red is gonna shape the meta for mid so much. Roaming supports and jungle ganks gonna make mid dives way more feasible
YES DUDE, I saw the reveal on the actual league client and I was praying you were gonna release a video because I was so damn confused at his abilities
15:09 since shadowflame got the Infinity orb effect from Wild Rift, does this mean you can go crit dot teemo as well? Idk if its as powerful or not but seeing the dot just shred is satisfying.
Also, Malignance burn + haste.
I have been waiting for this Pekin. Thank you
QE Fissure reminds me of Vel'Koz's fissure thing?
He's amazing, a really fun mage finally
22:25 am I tripping or did Pekin fire a QQ, then Q was up again so he queued Q again (you can see the lightning bolt on W a bit)? Then idk what happened right before Viego ult and sera ult but the Q ability flashes from 5 to reset like 2 times🤷♂️🤷♂️ maybe a new item that refunds ally abilities (the abilities refreshed CD after sera’s ult passed over pekin)
Good to see League is finally taking notes from dota with items..
and simplifying invoker LMAO
Nice, Pekinwolf first time video
I just noticed that his UI changes colors based on the type of ability chosen (red, blue, purple)
the fissure kind of reminds me of viktor e, so that works too with what you were explaining
Kog'Maw E is also similar with the AoE CC aspect. It just does all the damage up front.
18:20 qe is kog'maw e. I'm a little bit surprised that you as a AP kog player didn't connect those :D
I'm definitely gonna need more gameplay of you playing this champ
So they tried with Aphelios, but THIS seems to be Riot’s shot at Invoker.
"I don't know what to compare Q+E to"
Vel'Koz with his W trying to stiffle sobbing in the corner for being forgotten.
You keep using the fire wave when you should just keep using that explosion shot at close distance, does way more damage burstwise
The example you were looking for on QE fissure is Kog'Maw E but deals continuous dmg
Ah yes, another episode of "Riot copying Dota's homework because it actually lets its players have fun." This mans is basically a watered down Evoker.
0:21 For me they're always on, even after closing league?
It would be nice if you did an new items overview video. That would be a cool thing for the channel IMO.
Jhin/Hwei quest gives Hwei 3.33% magic penetration and Jhin 4.444 lethality !
Also Malignance is a lot better, because you should use your ult as an opener, like a Fizz ult. And having ult CD is broken af since your ult enables you.

Tactical Faceroll engaged.
I love all these new items changes, and map changes. Can't wait for the live changes.
Guy is literally a simplified Invoker... even has Sunstrike.
my EXACT wording when I saw the lighting bolt. "oh shit it's sunstrike"
Can someone please explain this to me? I keep seeing people mention “invoker” but who is tht?
@shmooters5599 He is a Dota 2 hero, has 3 abilities that can be combined to create new abilities
At 29:26 you can see his EW the eye thing went to her but since Camille is unstoppable when she ults it did not snare
18:20 isnt QE kinda like Kog maw E?
This guy gives me Invoker vibes and with the map changes making it seem a bit bigger with more options tells me there might be some dota influence this patch.
Use EE Pekin it’s the best one! For wave-clear and landing skill shots with it’s slow .
Looks like a really cool champion actually, I like how they made the skillset like a spellbook, and the champion doesn't seem straight up broken and cheap, so this might be really fun to play!
The map changes are cool too, playing botlane normal games with buddy will be a change on red side though, overstaying can be punished way more, probably. (At least from what I have seen so far)
At least it’s balanced now, as blue and red side are now the same
I can confidently say that this champ is beyond my skill level. I don't think I have the hand dexterity to play them. The crazy new changes to like, everything though, is pretty exciting, even though I'm gonna be a super noob trying to retrain my brain yet again. EDIT: Completely agree about items not just being stat sticks. Sooo much more fun to theorycraft
You have to try that new malignance item on kog maw!
I used to play invoker a lot in Dota 2, so I'm really excited to play Hwei!
stormsurge + electrocute seems like it would give huge damage for burst mages
lulu players gonna have fun
Yea also many ap assassins
I think akali and Ekko are gonna build this first item as they can easily deal 35% early with one item
Maybe Leblanc even, if she isn’t gonna go the new lethality energized item that stacks energized 75% faster with dashes and blinks etc
Nice video Pekin!
I wonder how much AP a Veigar can stack with those items
If you want to do like 25 more hwei videos in a row I will watch
For a burst combo try out:
WE => EQ/EE => Ult => QW | Harder to hit, combos a bit slower (delayed damage by 1 sec), does more damage when target is isolated/immobilized also has a execute based on missing health.
WE => EQ/EE => Ult => QQ | Easier to hit, combos faster (damage is not delayed), does less damage.
You are always going WE when poking or comboing for a kill due to the increased damage it provides, pick your Q's and E's depending on if you can even hit them too, if minions are in the way use the skills that you can target a location not a skill shot obviously lol.
EQ: Single Target
EE: AoE Target
If ult is up always use it 3rd, provides an amazing slow that helps to hit your Q's
Poke in lane:
WW => QE => Auto => Auto | QE provides a 30% slow to the target making it easier to get those 2 auto attacks off for WW damage and mana regen in lane, QQ is fine too, you just won't have that slow and might miss out on auto attacks.
WW => EW => Auto => QW/WW => EW => QQ => Auto | You are just banking on them walking to close to the EW to get rooted with this one, might be good when he releases and people haven't played against him or understand his kit.
The rest of his kit is really just utility imo
WQ: Great for split pushing, rotating
WW: Useful in lane to help mitigate being poked down, makes it easier to farm safely
EW: Good for checking brushes/fog of war. Can be used to poke in lane as well or block off areas for control.
QE: If you build Rylai's it's a 30% slow that can block off a large area as well.
FINALLY! was waiting for my fav youtuber the woofster
29:34 oh also, for this moment, she didn’t get snared bc the snare has a travel time and Camille dodged it with her ult.
Furthermore to add on to this even if she got hit by it during her E she would still finish her dash since roots do not interupt dashes. I wanted to add thi since he in his video said that he wanted to use it to stop her dash but that is neither possible with his root nor fear.
Only kinds of cc that stop a dash are displacement like knock back or knock up, or abilities with the knock down effect.

I love that the brought back damage into the game, more skill expression!
Oh, yes, the Invoker _light._

If your WE is up it helps with the kog like ability because its really pretty long.. other than that its literally just W E prep for QQ and EQ or EE if you can hit it, they do the same damage just easier to land the larger skill shot.. hes really pretty easy to use, your passive is where the damage can really start to ramp because its 2 damaging abilities and you have a lot
New Shadowflame looking 👀
Also, super excited for Hwei and all the new changes for season 2024! He looks like an amazing champion for me to master, love his aesthetics, the control/artillery mage play style, and spell versatility
im not sure where you see a tornado in his kit but hwei looks really interesting
when he said that it was so funny
What happened to the stop watch rune if the item is no more?
I can see WE R QE EE being insane in teamfights if you can land it. WE EQ QQ/QW seem like the bread and butter combos for single targets depending on if they're low or not
18:30 Q E is literally kogmaw E pretty similar. And 19:00 your only slight hope would have been W Q, EE and probably barrier and run. You don't gain the full shield amount instantly for WW its half then half over time its kinda just for supporting a teammate or like a karthus ult where it can build up
The shield is for late game when your W is maxed, or in early game to shield versus DoT
Man, this dude looks like my old main from DotA; Invoker. I'm really hype to give him a go
Dude the amount of text in those abilities is insane
I lover that you know what the champion does, you know how enoying is when the streamer is all the video figuring out what it does instead of read the abilities
god the ability leveling is so weird to me lmao so im only 10 mins in, apologies if pekin mentions it but i noticed an abilitys CD and mana are the only things fully affected by leveling that ability, the rest is based on the button u cast it with wtf
like if u use QW (the xerath W), its CD and mana cost are decided by the Q level, but the damage and damage amp are based on W's level, same for like the WE, the CD and mana cost are dictated by the level of W, but the damage and mana return are dictated by the level of E, so if u level E but not W, it gives a bunch of extra mana without the cost going up which seems kinda epic balls i think
TL:DR
Passive - Leblanc Q effect, any ability marks, another one detonates
Q Q - Karma Q
Q W - Xerath W
Q E - Vel'koz W
W Q - Old Galio Q, basically a straight aoe line that gives move speed and no damage
W W - Millio W, but stationary and shields everyone (no healing)
W E - Nami E
E Q - Fiddlesticks Q, but a projectile, not target
E W - Swain W, but roots if an enemy touches it
E E - Sett E, but Malzahar Q projectile
R - Fizz R but shorter range and doesn't knock up
The damage and with the burst execute ability seems a bit overturned. Looks really fun otherwise. I'm just not sure if all his abilities are going to see play.
Qq for damage, qw for range execute, qe for wave clear, wq movement speed, ww for shields, we for mana regen, eq for disengage, ew for area control and vision, ee for group cc. I think every single one will be used. Obviously disproportionately, but st8ll
Can you do a one-shot ult bot mid Karthus?
Runes:
First Strike
Magical Footwear
Future's Market
Cosmic Insight
Eyeball Collection
Ultimate Hunter
Build:
Malignance > Sorc Shoes > Shadowflame > Stormsurge > Rabadon's > Void Staff
This is like an ARAMer's dream champion. Long range, mana regen, shields, and a big CC'ing ult...
I think e-e then q-e is really good combo for harassing and clearing in the same time.
I think its nice if you tell us if your playing with veiwers, great video though! Im so excited about the new items
when is this update coming out
Can you play blue card tf in pbe if you can’t have hwei? New items seem cool on him, like stormsurge
Finally RIOT did the Invoker.
damn i couldnt hold my excitement for this video since i show the cinematic
I think you couldnt figure out what the QE is similar to, but its very similar to velkoz E
Who would've thought that removing unneeded hp from half the name items and giving the ap back would increase mages ' qol
qol?
Quality of life
dang it's like the mage's era now with all the new items
Can u try a liandries demonic rialize cosmic drive build to play off your we qe eq into the burn field combo with a qe to finish?
Demonic is gone sadly
What is his attack range? He feels like an ADC with a selfpeel EQ and R. That can also be used offensively.
575
The lightning is actually kinda insane, when you hit an immobilised target it triples the damage so at max rank its 480+0.9AP ratio
I was confused about that. The damage in the tooltip kept increasing unexpectedly and for most of the game it says the same damage as QQ.
So how does it work exactly?
I guess the tip is just bugged. 1:08:40 is noting a 250% increase instead of 300%.
QQ ALWAYS does more damage than QW as long as you're in range of it. Don't forget the additional 8% max health damage
@@zefix3133 almost always, yes. Qw starts doing more after you get good ap and it’s rank 5 but QQ is still close behind.
it increases based on rank
@@DannyPotato
How are you supposed to recall against that lightning bolt ability? Asking for a friend.
I feel like you're really underutilizing EE tbh lol seems really dam good and fairly ez to land. Also EW gives vision just like Swain W. Also EW is a projectile it looks like so Camille dodged with R
