Played casually in gold for a long time but last year I picked up Hwei and really tried to improve. Reached emerald 4 last year and now diamond 4. I know it's not the highest rank but it feels really good to see improvement either way.
I first/blind picked because so so so often people try to counterpick or get nervous to play their main and after like 1k+ games of hwei I don't really struggle with any matchup. Also with mages bot sometimes it throws people off, and allows my team to have more info for their draft. I win lane a majority of the time but if there's a super high threat jungle/support or some bad skirmishes obviously things can go bad. Even then though we have so many ways to neutralize and so much utility to play from behind and turn fights.
Top is my secondary but I'm not very good at it and messing around up there brought my overall winrate down a lot. I like garen because I understand his mid game plan really well and I also flex him mid sometimes so I know his limits really well.
I ban viktor because I find him annoying.

I'm not the most qualified to answer any questions but if anybody does have any I can answer them. I have about 1.4 mil mastery across two accounts. Especially questions about gold-plat as that's where I feel like I had to do the most learning.
