Hwei’s base stats:

Health [ 550 Base Health + 104 HP / lvl]: Lowest Base health for a midlaner alongside champs like Azir, Veigar, Taliyah and Anivia
Hwei’s low HP stats mirrors that of Taliyah. His base health regen is the same as long range mages [Xerath, Lux]
Mana: [440 Mana + 30 / lvl]
His Base mana is on the lower end and his mana growth is alright, you will most likely run resource runes + go for lost chapter. Worth noting he has an ability that regenerates his mana
Armor : 18 + 4.7 / lvl [Lowest in the game]
He has lowest armor in the game, his stats again are just like Taliyah. It might hamper his viability in bot lane [APC/Supp] and getting traded/all in’ed by assassins/skirmishers in mid lane will be painful if not lethal
Move Speed: 320 MS [Lowest in the game after unmounted Kled and unmounted Rell]
Slowest champion in the game[if we exclude mounted champs] , MS is vital for a mid laner to efficiently roam and skirmish.
Attack Range: 575 [3rd Highest Mid laner Attack range after Annie and Anivia]
to compensate for his low base stats, he has a very high attack range to safely last hit and possibly trade with [W->E]
Attack Speed: 0.714 [Highest Ranged Base Attack Speed]
Hwei’s attack speed lies at the very top and again he can utilize it to proc his \“W->E\” ability efficiently. For comparison, next highest attack speed ranged champs are Kalista [0.694] and Teemo [0.69]
Base AD [ 3rd lowest base AD mid laner after Orianna and Neeko]
Mages who have terrible base AD compensate for it by having AA passives such as Oranna Passive or Neeko W or Kennen W. Hwei and Annie both have very long range justifying the low AD
MR: 30 + 1.3 [Average MR base stats]
Hwei’s stats are interesting, Does having an extraordinary attack range make up for the lowest MS in the game? Will Hwei come close to breaking Briar’s 36% WR day one?
I personally like design approach of new champs having extremes in their stats, Briar had no health regen, Hwei is slow af etc.
Considering how overloadead he is, if they don’t cut back on the stats the the champ will just be perma 60% winrate.
