Stopwatch fest is a highlight why Zhonya always was a cancer item.
This whole active should never existed ever, now cancer has spread to everyone and is avainible since game begins.

It really isn't a cancer item AT ALL. It gives you very, very periodic, risky, and conditional protection. Remember, using it stops you from doing ANYTHING, that includes moving, casting, or having allies cast spells on you. I can't count how many times I've simply just waited for enemies to wear out of their Zhonya's and then destroyed them. It requires the utmost precision and a lot of faith in your team to prevent you from dying on the spot once it wears off. It isn't remotely cancerous compared to items that offer constant, always-on effects that make champions always broken, like the early days of Frozen Mallet and Rylai's.
It allows you to completely negate an ultimate or other burst/engage. It can turn a fight or stop a tower dive.
Its probably to strong for a rune. And pro play will probably show this.
Really its nice to be able to make tower dives more difficult but there are better ways imo.
I mean if you only use it like an idiot right before you die anyway then it's not so bad. Lets just pretend some people actually use it intelligently.
Stop watch should be removed from the game
Zhonyas was fine, but now we have a bunch of active item CDR that makes it stronger than it ever was.
Not to mention, you can buy zhonyas, and if you didnt use stopwatch, you can re-buy stopwatch and have 2 zhyonyas on standby...lolololol I love riot
It breaks projectiles, something Flash was known and picked to be used for
