Awesome work!

Feedback time:

Initial hum feels more like technology than magic, and is almost a bit uncomfortable.
The little ting as the magic flows through it is amazing.
The key appearance/zoom also feels more like tech than magic.
The pre/post explosion is very well done.
The assembly noise fits nicely, but could perhaps be better timed with the shards to feel chunkier.
The completed noise doesn't feel as sharp and crisp as I'd like.

Overall phenomenal stuff though!

Hey, thanks man! Great feedback too. I really appreciate you taking the time. Maybe I shouldn't have taken the "tech" in Hextech so literally lol. I'll try for a more magical rework on this one.

My personal recommendation is to think of Hextech like magic inside of metal, rather than technology. It has some crisp, sharp, metallic sounds, but it's otherwise magical rather than technical.
