I REALLY like the new characters on TFT, however....

I've stacked the new champs for buff a few games now, its unpredictable, and it misses a lot. Had it used against me and it missed my front line/frozen hearts every time, which were far more critical at the start of engage than my stacked ranged at the back as the buff wears off pretty quickly. My only point of complaint is rather than add a way to shut down other peoples RNG item luck, they need to improve those games where you literally get gold instead of items and have to rely on the Carousel for your only item gain. I'd like to see some kind of single item store randomly available to your client that you can also use gold on to buy. Not a full item just a randomly selected partial that you have to factor into your income management. wouldn't even have to be every round, i'm thinking the "store" pops up only on carousel rounds. that would add extra depth both to gold management, as well as who you actually select in the draft picks rather than a 3rd for a 3 star or one semi useful item you might get. (patch wise im'm just annoyed they nerfed frozen heart. ;p stacking 3 of those was redic when they overlapped, no stacking now. :( )

"extra depth"... so "do I have the comp I want/ am I winning? cool now let's see what I can buy to make even more broken champions!" "am I losing/don't have the comp I want? well guess i'll go cry in a corner because even if I get items I still won't get me what I actually need in order to survive" it would literally become the biggest "win more" thing in the game and due to how broken certain items are having ways to get them even more consistently is not a good thing imo

Are we playing the same game? It removes the items for 8 seconds o.o

Hextech bonus is awful..? How else are we supposed to counter a draven with IE, BT, and Rageblade. Or a ash with three cursed blades. This is WHY the hextech bonus is here. Edit: HOWEVER, I do say doing this on multiple champions is a little bit of overdoing things, instead it show disable items on only ONE champion, and maybe two if you have the full buff.

The duration is way too long....8 freaking seconds

Hextech is the counter to item RNG.

The Only problem I see from the mechanic is that if you build Hex, AND get good item stack on that or a sub-synergy then you have both advantages. You shut out the other team AND have good items. (the hex champs are varied enough that they lend no synergy to themselves outside of the bomb, they arent that great just as a "HEX" build) Which might mean everyone will want to build hex so they aren't stuck out. But it isn't the end all/be all of a game. If you're really hurting from hex your relying too much on 1-2 stacked champs rather than a decent team synergy. Where in the rules did anyone say all your items only had to go to Lucian, or Draven? That was a tactic, now it isn't. Spreading out items makes for a less powerful single faceroll champ, but it also spreads the wealth so you aren't overly dependent. Try coming up with new Strategies instead of just QQin.
