What Not to Pair with Hat on a Hat

Bad augment synergies and pairings to avoid

Avoid

Avoid Hat on a Hat + EscAPADe

Hat on a Hat rewards building multiple eligible hat items to stack ability power and magic resistance. EscAPADe converts all ability power into attack damage, completely nullifying the primary benefit of the hat-stacking strategy. This fundamental stat conversion creates a direct conflict where the core mechanic of one augment renders the other's payoff useless.

Avoid Hat on a Hat + Slow and Steady

Hat on a Hat provides ability power scaling for each hat item in inventory, encouraging AP builds. Slow and Steady removes all attack speed bonuses and converts them to attack damage, which offers zero synergy with the AP-focused hat mechanic. This pairing wastes the augment slot on stats that do not enhance the hat-stacking strategy.

Avoid Hat on a Hat + Draw Your Sword

Hat on a Hat is designed for champions who benefit from ability power and can build multiple eligible hat items. Draw Your Sword forces a melee conversion with attack damage, attack speed, and health bonuses that do not interact with the hat mechanic. The playstyle mismatch makes this a low-value pairing for most champions.
