Was going to try out this new Hextech system looked fun to get new skins Wrong 5 boxes I got 3 champion shards I already own and 2 skin shards I already own. I ask riot for a refund their answer is we are sorry you could not utilize all of your boxes if I got 1 just 1 I could use slightly I would be fine but all 5 boxes I can't use and I paid for what??? Riot to once again scam their customers anyone else get scammed by riot yet ???

You can use 3 to Re-roll for a permanent unlock of a champion or skin that you do not have yet.

It's never been a guarantee that you get what you want, it's more or less a RNG gamble with odds of you getting a skin part which you could use for discounted purchases.

Any one who thinks they're going to game the skin system purely on hextech crafting is only going to game themselves out of RP.

Fun Fact. Boxes and keys are all free. You earn them. They didn't scam anything. You understand what the boxes can give you. It can give you any champion or skin, it's randomized. You chose to spend RP with this knowledge. There's no scamming. It's like doing random skins and getting a bunch for one champion.

If you pay for boxes and all you get are champs which I already own then what is that legit ???

I would not call it a scam. Boring and virtually useless to Riot's best customers, yes, absolutely. But not really a scam.

usually when you pay for something you get something in return it goes back to the barter system but when you pay for something and get nothing that is cheating someone out of money.

Because they want to screw over people who have all champions. Hell, they don't want to lose money by allowing them to get skins they don't own for free, now do they???

Oh yeah mate..

I paid 1950 + 975 on Hextech CHESTs and I seriously got completely nothing I wanted. NOTHING I really think Hextech is scamming, I paid lots of Money, for NOTHING. I mean, I would love a refund on it, but sadly I guess that would never happen. Well Well, now I know about it..

I simply rerolled 3 of my shitty skin shards I didn't want or already had and got Wildfire Zyra. Pretty good for not costing me anything.
