hourglass is very unhealthy that it should be looked into. if player A who is AD based and high skill champion gap and for this point is 3/4/3 and player B who has below skill cap champion is ap based is 9/1/4.

  1. If player A clearly out has a higher skill cap and out playing player B why is it that player B always lives cause of hourglass and player A dies cause he is not AP based and does not have a hourglass.
  2. hourglass is up every 2 mins in which Player B always has the advantage in most fights cause they have a fail safe button and player A does not.
  3. It may not be fun to play the game for player A if they work hard to learn a hard skill gap champion and 1 item has the ability to pretty much delete the skill gap difference between player A and player B and give Player B win all skirmishes. there should be more of a reward to playing high skill gap champions.

in my opinion the hourglass changes could go one of 3 ways.

  1. Remove from the game cause it gives a unhealthy advantage to one damage based champions.(with the exception of Kaisa who can build most items in game) there is a reason riot took away Ryze R to interact with hourglass and they have repeatedly nerfing item 2419 in the inspiration tree.
  2. Increase the cool down from 120 secs to something around the 240 secs mark for better windows for other players who are not ap based. if a player can be punished for using summoner 4 and summoner 12 then players should be punished for item 3157
  3. Give ad champions a item to repeatedly enter stasis as a unique active item to turn trades to the "better player wins" trades instead of oh you play ad and i have hourglass i win unless i mistime my hourglass

Or maybe i am missing something that others see then please unlighted me.
