what's the difference between these hextech chests?

Opening 2 types of hextech chests to see if there is any difference

"What's the difference between these two Hextech Chest?

I have two distinct Hextech Chests in my Loot\Materials tab,
and they have different descriptions. One reads,
"What's in the box?" while the other reads, "Requires a Hextech Key to open."

What's the difference between them?

and apparently the answer is

One was gotten from a quest/store while the other was gotten from weekly S rank rewards,

A few loot openings to do before the emporium expires!

tbh I feel like the ones you get from S rewards have a higher chance to be champion shards, I swear I have never gotten any skins from those boxes

[shadowrush]

we need masterwork chests from getting S ranks. hextech chests are just champion capsules with extra steps.

Riot really said "Here, main Ezreal and Zed now"

[brightfox]

I feel like all I got from this is that you sir are very lucky god damn

aside from him high rolling on those chests: Hextech Chests specifically had been silently nerfed. Before April the chance to get a champion instead of a Skin was very low and you didn't get a 450 BE champion either.
Then they changed it. Nowdays almost every Hextech Chest I opened had a 450 -1350 Champion, I opened 24 since the "non official update" and had gotten only 6 skins.
Considering their Pricing Changes and the increased cost for lesser quality Chromas/Skins I think they want to eliminate the free-to-play down to actually only allowed to play and nothing more.

Kinda expected him to analyze the difference between them –or lack of it– and he spammed open chests and "Thanks for watching and see you next time."

[grahamtoh]

Ive always wondered what the diff was as well

When you enable the low specs mode you get to see that the visual of the first hextech (that we receive from S-, S and S+) seems fine whereas the othe one's (that we receive from missions) seems a little bit odd.

I get 150 blue essence and Ryze but you get that

Guys don't forget he opened almost 40 chest to get that loot.

[AWE]

From 20 chest (20 weeks getting S rank), I've gotten 14 champion shards, 3 icons, 2 wards and 1 skin shard.
Every single week I'm hoping I get something good, but it's always a champ shard. 😭

[mattiasala]

Me open chest: warwick shard appear
Matty open a chest: pulsfire ezreal

[savalije]

nowadays I'm only getting champ shards cant remember the last time I got emote/icon, let alone skin/ward shard, my orange essence is collecting dust 😂

[Glitchie_light]

I'm a free to play player who really likes chest hunting and I can safely say that I usually get champs about 1 in 3 chests I open is a skin and most of the time it's common/legacy never got legendary skins from S rating chests yet

[jamesplitter]

pulsefire ezreal is so overrated, the skin is actually pretty bad IMO

[tobidobidu]

Honestly I will always take statements that regard dropchances with a grain of salt. It could very well be that the chests differ in luck, be it only a single percent or so.

There have been instances in the past where Riot claimed incorrect chances and I see no guarantee for it not happening again. Wether that was actually an accident, we will never know.

I love your videos and your voice. It is pleasant :DD

The chests you get from Chests also stack into the quest/Store pile

[Arob]

I never have that many chests. I open them asap. Once got DJ Sona from an S chest, that was probably the best value chest I’ve had. I also get some other great skins, like Corporate Mundo and Solar Eclipse Leona (I’ve gotten 3 good Leona skins from chests)
