Hextech Disable might be the reason I quit TFT

Like i don't think riot could have come up with something more annoying. You spend the entire match tryna build an equip items and be creative Only to have someone that has TWO HEXTECH CHAMPS. just 2 !! like what?

The AOE is what gets me. 2 hextech and you wipe out a third of the map?

I would be fine if: 2 hextech: single target, no AOE 3 hextech: what two hextech currently is 4 hextech: same as current

No reason traits have to work in even numbers.

I have more of an issue w/ a team of 4 glacials being able to pretty much perma stun. Add a swordbreaker or two, even better.. lol.. Hextech disabling for a short time is nothing compared to being locked down and not being able to use items ALL ROUND because you were perma stunned.

I quit tft cause it feels gimmicky and to much rng

Obviously RIOT wanted Hextech to prevent players to put more items on single unit and keep the units tight. I agree with the second (tight formation can be invincible and is not funny). But every player wants to put more items on unit so yes they should change the Hextech's effect.

They should reduce the RNG element of the disable then it would be fine. Have 2 hextech disable up to 2 completed items

What about Nerfing the time from 7seconds to 4 seconds.

Change it so its 2/4

2: Single target Champion with the Highest amount of items. Selects a random hecttech, if they die, they'll send the aoe around the area disabling the items for another 4 seconds.

4: Single target Champion with the Highest amount of items. All Hect techs will get the bonus effect: IF a Hextech Dies, they will send a small AOE Effect that will disable the items for another 4 seconds)

So its just to make it more consistent, but not disable the entire parties items if they pick the champion thats near the center. Make it so it does't last as long, but its more deadly in the mid and later in the fight.

As annoying as I find glacial and yordle, I can at least rationalize it can be tuned. Hex tech has just felt bad to me since its inception. Tuning it like an earlier poster said would better than nothing, but I'd enjoy it just being gone.

I hate Hex players with a passion...

2 hex can drop an AoE to disable items... crazy strong and a game changer.

sucks out the fun of building a dream comp too... all the time and effort putting the RNG together for something useful is squashed out by 2 hex toons.. those 2 hex toons make the entire match redundant.

Feels even worse when someone who is ahead has hextech and you're behind and they hextech your units who could even remotely give you a fighting chance.

This is actually my biggest problem with hextech.

Absolutely NO reason why the hextech thing has to be AOE. I would be fine if the perk let you disable 1 or 2 champs, but the AOE has literally de-itemed my entire team before.

that;s very accurate. not sure why riot hasn't seen this yet. like uhh

Ever since they added hextech the game has been on a free fall of horrible patches imo. I'm making the choice today to just wait until the next set for TFT or ill legit lose my mind lmao. Everything about this game is so frustrating right now.
