Once you have three Fragments, you’ll need to combine them. In order to forge a Hextech key, you will first need to earn three Key Fragments. You’re not here to learn why you want those key fragments though, so let’s get moving and talk about the good stuff – quickly earning those Key Fragments… Do you recall that excitement you felt as you were ripping through the presents that Santa neatly wrapped? Well, I’ve noticed that those Hextech chests bring out that same feeling in League players. If you feel as if this scenario doesn’t apply to you, go back to Christmas time as a little kid. People find themselves tempted to put money towards some key fragments, especially if they really want a Hextech Skin. Those numbers right there are just enough to make players feel as if the chests are worth it, and they really are worth it. In total, you can earn an average of 12 Hextech Keys per month. It’s our nature for us humans to strive for the next reward at hand, and the rate at which League of Legend players can receive these keys has been designed around this. I look at key fragments as being a psychological trick, which is fine. In order to open up the Hextech chests, you will need Hextech Keys, and these keys will first need to be forged (this can be confusing, and that’s why we’re writing this post). With these, there are no gameplay benefits, but they are a great way for you to personalize your champions. You can pop open the Hextech chest to receive cosmetic items like skins and crafting material with those keys. And that reward is either a Hextech Key fragment or Hextech chest. When a player scores an S rank performance in a League of Legends match, they get a reward for their efforts.
