runes reforged: balancing champions

besides runes being a big flop and compensation for all the time i spent into getting my runes my biggest concern is the balance of champion

champions are inherently balanced around runes its just how it works. some champions just need a solid rune page to function, alot of adcs for example and in my opinon my main gangplank. without runes im actively afraid for how my main is going to perform early CDR is EXTREMLY important for him. as well as other champions that needs early stats to survive in lane. nasus as another example

riot plz plz PLZ. balance champions that are going to have these problems AT THE SAME TIME as your runes system. or at least hotfixed soon after. i do not want to have a entire PBE cycle of 2 of my favorite and best champs gutted for no other reason then "muh schedule"

FYI, masteries are going aswell, meaning champs that are balanced around thunderlords are gonna get hit pretty hard

Not to mention there's no word on whether or not we'll have any meaningful "base stat runes" rolled over like Lethality, Mana Regen, Crit Dmg/Chance, etc.

You know, just in case you actually wanted to have a different playstyle with Gangplank on a per-game basis.
