Wooglet's Witchcap vs Zhonya's Hourglass

Boho the Great··3 votes·7,018 views

I actually just wanted to ask about these two items. Wooglet's Witchcap and Zhonya's Hourglass. The Wooglet's Witchcap is more expensive, which I suppose makes sense because it offers only 20ap and 5 armor less, with a passive of 25% ap boost. What troubles me is the active of both these items.

Both read:

"Champion becomes invulnerable and untargetable for 2.5 seconds, but is unable to move, attack, cast spells, or use items during this time (90 second cooldown)".

The only difference is that the Witchcap reads "Unique Active: Blah blah blah...", while the Hourglass reads "Unique Active - Stasis: Blah blah BLAH..."

Now I do believe that unique actives can stack, yes? So I guess it doesn't reeeally matter that they are the same active with different names, but my OCD says they should have the same name in this case.

I don't know why I felt to make a post about this, but maybe someone will go in and fix that small detail.

Yeah, i mean, the items, at least right now, can never both be built since they are cordoned off to different maps (Zhonya's to Summoner's Rift/Howling Abyss ; Wooglet's to Crystal Scar / Twisted Treeline) but it does seem a bit inconsistent.

Oh I didn't even notice you couldn't build both items in a game! But yeah, I guess I'm just nitpicking a tiny error it seems ahah

I'm currently looking at both as of June 19th 2015 It seems that you could use both in Summoner's Rift (Classic 5v5). item 3157 is NOT AVAILABLE in Twisted Treeline (Classic 3v3) and Crystal Scar (Dominion). item 3090 is NOT AVAILABLE in Howling Abyss (ARAM). I'm more prone to go with item 3090 since it gives an AP% boost and is a easier build. I'll already have item 1052 and the item 3191 for my builds. But justifying the 1600 coin price for the item 1058 is harder for me.
