Remove Stopwatch ...

Hello, I know this discussion is popular and people say its not broken item. But it really is. I could understand stopwatch being 600g item, sure.. But as a rune, for everyone ?? Its awful to play any play making champs, like Thresh for example. You go for a play, Flash + Hook, catch the adc and seems like an easy kill, taking only 2 tower shots. Next thing you know, the adc uses stopwatch and u die for nothing. Perhaps this example isn't really the best. but 6 min zhonyas for non mage champ is really ridicilous. Sure it's a 1 time use, but that 1 time can change the whole game.

I wish riot would really remove it as a rune and keep it as an item only. Also, no reason for hate comments. It's just my opinion afterall :)

It's no different than playing around knowing that the enemy has flash off CD. So how do we deal with flash? We bait it out, then we go for the real play. Same concept with stopwatch.

I don't mind having stop watch but it annoys me as a mages main , the only race who is supposed to use it , but then suddenly playing against a Yasuo who uses it and sells it for potions or annything it's supposed to be for mages only , I agree about removing the rune , paying 600 Gold to get is not a problem at all , but the rune ..

I actually agree with the body of the thread, but I downvoted you because you said this. People that can't put their opinions out there with confidence and have to hide behind "it's just an opinion guys!" are people that piss me off. Next time, have some damn backbone.

when all of the enemy team can negate nearly any ultimate or negate any tower dive it removes a lot of fun from the game. All in champs are having a hard time because it can take too long to kill someone when they blow stopwatch.

I still think the single-use Stasis should've been on Seeker's Armguard instead.

i don't think its an op item. I do agree though that it's annoying. I think , as you said, Riot should not remove the item from the game, but should remove the item as a free item from the runes.

It should be removed along with Klepto. You have to wonder what kind of hard-crack rito is smoking to add these things.

Remove the new run system! they honestly are bad for the game! nothing but problems. We need the old stat stick again.

This item should be completely removed. It once again promotes passive, low skill playing. New rune in resolve tree that is coming is another bullsht rune that makes you just sit in lane safely(DMG reduction from next 3 spells and attacks). This game literally turned into tutorial that guides baddies and casuals by the hand to higher elo. Pick that class of champs that are mainly right click and survive the lane with all these tools to wreck havoc by default with items you have.
