How to play Wang Wei
Early Game
Focus on clearing waves and reaching Level 4 quickly. Use Skill 1: Empty Mountain to control the lane and recover safely when needed. Combine Skill 2: River Flow with Skill 1 to poke enemies, disrupt their positioning, and create opportunities for your jungler.
Once you unlock your Ultimate, start looking at the minimap more frequently. Wang Wei can use his spirit form to create pressure across the map, so don’t stay in Mid Lane when another lane has a good opportunity.
Late Game
In late-game team fights, positioning is extremely important. Use Skill 1 and Skill 2 to control key areas and keep enemies away from your backline. Before casting your Ultimate, always check where your real body is because it remains at the original location and can still be attacked or controlled.
Use your Ultimate primarily for map pressure, repositioning, and joining fights, rather than using it only for damage. Avoid teleporting directly into the middle of the enemy team unless you have enough protection from your teammates.
Overall
Wang Wei is a versatile Mage who rewards good positioning, map awareness, and skill timing. His strongest gameplay comes from combining Skill 2 → Skill 1 for control, then using his Ultimate to extend his influence across the map. Mastering the position of his real body and spirit form is the key to playing him effectively.
Wang Wei combo
Wang Wei’s main combo is built around combining Skill 2: River Flow with Skill 1: Empty Mountain. Skill 2 can disrupt and reposition enemies, while Skill 1 provides additional damage and control.
Wang Wei Team
Dharma + Augran + Wang Wei + Marco Polo + Dolia.
This composition gives Wang Wei the frontline, CC, sustain, and damage he needs to safely control fights while using his Ultimate for map pressure. Wang Wei is currently an Experience Server hero, so his optimal team composition may change before release.
Defeat Wang Wei
To counter Wang Wei, focus on his real body rather than chasing his spirit form. When he uses his Ultimate, his real body remains at the original location and can still be attacked or controlled.
