hexdrinker goes from "oh shit im losing lane" to "now you cant kill me"

Rozair··6 votes·555 views

hexdrinker is the most fucking broken item in this fucking game and its been overpowered since the very START of season 6. Look how many people buy it. Know why? because its overpowered as fuck. for 1300 gold you can counter a champion. Meanwhile theres nothing you can build to counter them as an ap champion. RIot wake the fuck up.

How exactly someone losing lane will sudenly tank pokes with hexdrinker? sure he'll be better in a fight, but you can still poke him down.

If this is false, then riot has to nerf the mr that the item gives to make it better in fight with the passive, but worse if the enemy pokes you down.

where the fuck am i going to get 35 magic pen. better yet then it upgrades into 40 mr. item 3001 item 3020 item 3151 or i can build item 3135 and it still gives them 28 bonus mr.

idk, masteries gives either 8% magic pene, or 3+0.3 per lvl, standart runes gives 8 magic pene or more. item 3020 gives 15 magic pene.

this alone reduces the resistance by a lot, but you don't need to get 35 mr pene, you just need to continue to poke the laner down.

Was zed losing when the enemy mid laner bought item 3191 when he was in the meta? no, he continued to poke you down.

its not zed... its every champion. when a lucian is building it, or an irrelia, or graves. Graves is tanky enough then you give him this along with the wariors bloodlust gg

You are right and I am going to add this on top. I'd be willing to bet that 9 out of 10 people who bitch it's OP are the same ones who go all in and after they are dead suddenly realize why when they finally look at the build that beat them instead of looking before they went all in in the first place. Gamers today are funny like that. It's never their own damn fault.

exactly, some people expect to win everytime they are ahead, and immediatly try to fight the enemy without analyzing what's happening.

no its not great aginst poje but it is op against burst mages. if u buy this in lane there isnt a burst mage that can kill you.

It's more of an issue now because of how they added Penetration to it. It used to be such an odd item to complete before, and that made the component quite a honorable thing to fight against. Now that it's got Penetration (which is stupendously powerful early on for those who take this item) it's taken almost every time they are against a mage. I'm surprised nothing has been done about this, but I guess Riot is fine with players taking the same thing just about every time in lane.

Because uhh Uhhhhm okay, it's probably just those AD midlaner mains and adc players that build ridiculous Pen+shields setups every game and don't want to make decisions on their gameplay

It's unfair how AD champs can buy an item that completely negates burst and provides insane amounts of stats for 1300 gold while mages get nothing to negate AD burst.

Don't even mention seekers cause that shit is near useless against AD burst because they all rush armor pen and mages don't have that option. And it doesn't give some bullshit shield

AP gets Zhonya and AD gets Hexdrinker. Seems like a fair trade off.

zhonya doesnt even compare bro. zhonya doesnt give you a sheild and your comparing maw to zhonya which deffinitly doesnt compare. Mr lifesteal sheild armor pen. Vs the active of zhonya
