Hextech

Synergy

At the start of combat and every 6 seconds afterwards, the Hexcore sends out a pulse that charges up allied Hextech champions with a shield for 4 seconds. While the shield is active, their basic attacks deal bonus magic damage on-hit. The bonus magic damage and shield values are increased by 20% per augment. This shield does not stack.

• 2 Hextech: 100 shield, 15 on-hit damage
• 4 Hextech: 175 shield, 30 on-hit damage
• 6 Hextech: 300 shield, 55 on-hit damage
• 8 Hextech: 425 shield, 90 on-hit damage

Hextech

Synergy

At the start of combat, an ally Hextech launches and detonates a pulse bomb at an enemy unit with at least one item, disabling the items of nearby enemies for 5 seconds.

• 2 Hextech: 1-hex radius area
• 4 Hextech: 2-hex radius area

The Hextech synergy disables enemy items at the start of a match for a few seconds. With two Hextech champions, it can disable a maximum of 7 hex tiles. With four Hextech champions, it can disable a maximum of 13 hex tiles.

Strategy

The area of effect for the pulse bomb.

• Some champions heavily rely on their items to become strong, disabling them for 5 seconds can be the difference between winning or losing.
• Since Hextech makes the enemy spread out their units, Assassin's are a great partner for Hextech. The opponent will have to chose between losing many items for 6 seconds or allowing the Assassins to jump in and surround their strongest champions.
• Hextech is particularly strong against Guardian, as they prefer to be grouped together to maximize the utility of the Guardian synergy.
• In a similar manner, Kindred and Twisted Fate like to be surrounded by allies, allowing Hextech to exploit that aspect of them.

Items

• Disrupting a Zeke's Herald or Locket of the Iron Solari will almost render them completely useless, because when they are re-enabled they will apply their effect as they should have at the start, usually only buffing a portion of the champions that it could have.
• Zephyr, when combined with the Hextech synergy, is strange. Zephyr either helps the allied team, or helps the enemy team. If the Zephyr targets a champion that isn't effected by the initial pulse bomb, then at least two enemies will be significantly disabled for the start of the round. However, if the Zephyr effects the same target as the pulse bomb, the effected unit becomes invincible for the duration their items are disabled. The odds are in favor of the item helping the allied hextech team, since most people will spread out their units in an attempt to weaken the hextech ability.

Counters

By placing champions like this, it's possible to make sure at least 3 champions with items don't get hit with the bomb.

• If a champion heavily relies on the items they have equipped, don't place another champion with item near them.
• Place units far enough apart to dodge the radius of the pulse bomb. Ideally, no champion with an item should be placed in the middle row. See image to the right for best layout.
• Placing Force of Nature on champions far away from the champions with good items can sometimes bait the pulse bomb on them, resulting in no negative side effect for the fight.
• To a lesser degree, it's possible to bait the pulse bomb with items that activate later in the fight, like Redemption, Spear of Shojin, Seraph's Embrace, and Guardian Angel.

Notes

• Items that are Jammed! by Hextech are replaced by a red cross and have their description and name replaced with:
  • Jammed!: Item temporarily disabled.
• Items can not be equipped to a Jammed champion and will just bounce off and return to the item bench.

Trivia

• In the beta version, a bug existed that could delete items from the enemy champions.
• Zeke's Herald and Locket of the Iron Solari used to effect the opposing team when re-enabled after being disabled by the Hextech synergy.

Gizmos & Gadgets (Set 6)

Gizmos & Gadgets and its expansion, Neon Nights, make up the sixth ruleset for the game Teamfight Tactics.

Beta Set (Set 1)

The Beta Set and its unnamed Hextech expansion was the first and experimental ruleset for the game Teamfight Tactics.

The first Teamfight Tactics set was not officially named but Beta was the name of the corresponding Battle Pass, and all other Battle Passes have shared a name with their ruleset. The conjectural name Faction Wars may also be used. The icon used for this set is similarly conjectural as Riot Games did not assign icons to Teamfight Tactic sets until Galaxies (Set 3).
