Hextech crafting is sort of dumb but imo it's cool that there doesn't seem to be any limit on the amount of key fragments you can get in a day/week/month/whatever so if you're a poopsocker you can hoard a bunch and open up chests whenever you get a new one.

I have no idea how to get chests. Is it from S ranks? Because those are notoriously hard for me to get for some reason.

Yes. S ranks also increase the likelihood of keys.

get into this club and you will be among the first to join GOON once the member limit is increased, just add Gromp Hellscream and send him a pm. an rear end ton of you added me after the fact that the club was full and started pm'ing me, it won't work!!!!!!!


also the silversquid chat channel is still active and it's where goons from both clubs will organize inhouses and normal/ranked 5's, so add that to your autojoin on startup if you want to play w/ us

you also get chests if any of the other 4 people in your game gets an S rank, so it's not too bad

No you have to be grouped with them, I was in a game with someone who got an S earlier and I got nothing. Also the client announces when someone got an S ranked game so it wasn't just a pubbie bullshitting

4 chests per month + 12 months equals about 48 champions. You can only receive a chest for a champion's S Rank once per season, so it will be interesting to see if you can maintain that as the months go on if you play with your regular crew.

"Hey since Daemonlasher is helping me learn to play my way out of Silver, I should play more Ranked games for him to review."

Queue up as Top/Fill so I can Naut/Quinn my way to victory better learning; get Support, thats cool Nauto Supporto and/or Taric are dece ATM I'll roll with them.

Get into champ select, ask ADC what he is planning on playing; no answer, opposing team picks Naut fine I'll play Taric cause IDK what to match up vs Naut support. Our Mid and ADCs turn to pick, mid picks Janna? Wat, ADC picks Anivia.

"TROLL oval office IM MID"
"ME MID SORRY PICK SOMETHING ELSE"
"gently caress YOU"
"NO ONE LEAVE SO ANIVIA GETS A LOSS"
Both lock in.

Do I take the dodge penalty or just wear the loss? Doesn't matter cause our Top lander just dodges out.

The only thing I don't like about the hextech whatevers is that champ and regular dust are different things, and the only way to get champ dust is apparently to recycle champ fragments.

I swear half these peoples plans is to queue up, as their preferred roll and fill; just pick their preferred roll/champ as long as they aren't last pick and just challenge you to dodge the game or have them throw it if you don't let them play the lane.

drat, I checked the Vi skins you guys said, didn't really like em, checked the rest. Just all of Vi's skins suck :(

Demon Vi is like okay which makes it a lot better than the others, which are pretty much varying amounts of aggressively boring.


I'm disappointed they didn't give Demon Vi more of a Hellboy theme

Neon Strike Vi is her best skin because it's a reference to Gotcha Force, the best Gamecube game.

Neon strike is S tier for ridiculous spammable noises though, it's a tough choice if that's a feature you value highly

So, there's no reasonable way to unlock anything with this hextech crafting thing is there?

I bought 5 chest/key combos just to test it out and got 4 garbage skin shards (that I re-rolled for a bad 520 rp kass skin), ~200 cosmetic essence, and a xerath shard. If I can expect that as my full haul every month, I'll get a new champ once a year or so

Jhin has been my most consistently winning champ this season in both mid and adc but I suspect that's because people vastly underestimate his level 2 all-in than because I'm actually good at him
