The Honor of Kings roster is expanding with a brand-new hero inspired by classical literature and traditional aesthetics. The legendary Tang Dynasty poet known as the "Poetic Buddha" is stepping onto the battlefield as Wang Wei (王维), bringing a unique blend of mist-based evasion, crowd control, and global mobility to the Mid Lane.
Here is a full breakdown of what to expect from Wang Wei's debut and how to prepare for his upcoming arrival.
Meet Wang Wei: The Poetic Buddha
Wang Wei enters Honor of Kings designed primarily as a Mid Lane Mage. Rather than relying purely on high immediate burst damage, his kit emphasizes area control, continuous lane pressure, and strategic movement across the map.

Core Mechanics & Skill Highlights
Wang Wei's design blends traditional mountain, water, and mist motifs into an elusive and tactically demanding skill set:
Unique Evasion Passive
Wang Wei possesses a defensive evasion mechanic that allows him to dodge incoming damage under specific conditions. Timing this passive correctly enables players to survive fatal crowd control or burst damage sequences that would normally eliminate fragile Mages.
Control with Mountain and Water
His basic abilities create lingering areas of pressure on the battlefield. By slowing movement and applying crowd control, Wang Wei can zone enemy carries and lock down key choke points during team fights.
Mist Transformation (Ultimate)
The defining feature of Wang Wei's kit allows him to dissolve into mist and travel across long distances. This global or semi-global presence enables unexpected ganks, fast rotations, and multi-lane support during critical skirmishes.
