The hextech champs (besides lvl 2-3 jinx with items) are absolute trash and even if you're rangers with massive items as long as they are spread out a bit and not all stacked on one champ you will dominate a hextech team since camille vi and jayce are utter garbage like why are people complaining about this ? I went from G2 to P4 last night using rangers with items against hextech teams and they all just sucked

hextech anti synergize themselves so hard, going for 2 hextech is actually better than aiming for the 4 champ

Because you only need 2 Hextech to disable any closely bunched team, so most Hextech builds aren't (4) Hextech.....

Most Hextech teams are Blademaster + Gunslinger using Jinx and Camille, which basically creates a situation that procs Jinx almost instantly and shreds an entire team LONG before the 8 second item disable ends.

It's beating almost every build out there.

yes yes, I'm sure with all these "cerebral" players saying hextech is "fine" and it's just a matter of adjusting....sounds like the same type of players who also thought xin zhao was "fine" on release. LMAO

I’m convinced it’s just due to people not wanting to adjust their strategies.

The majority of negative threads I see about tft have always been like that. But especially since it’s so new, people haven’t learned how to deal with hextech and just wanna complain that they’re op instead of mixing up their playstyle to counter them.

Give it a week and nobody will care.

Its just another hardcounter on the pile of hard counters. Nothing is being balanced properly, just bandaids over existing problems.

This is why Dota Underlords is a hell of a lot better than TFT, everyone is roughly on the same playing field and are not dependant on luckly getting MORE items than the rest of the players.

Tips for dealing with Hextech: Don't pile all your best items onto one unit. 2. Have "buffer units" that don't have items between the ones that do. and 3. If someone runs 4 Hextech they've already lost.
