As a fare the well to runes, and rune pages, let us share our rune set ups and any page names...
Lets talk about rune pages...
So Iv had a ton of criticizing remarks for my main support runes because they arent cookie-cutter, and things that people havent seen they dont think about. With that said my "Hexblood" rune page is my go too for supports.
Hexblood 9x atk speed marks 9x scaling health regen seals 9x scaling mana regen glyphs 3x scaling mana regen quints
Values: 15.3% atk speed 18.2 health regen @ lvl 18 24 mana regen @ lvl 18
Now the standout there is the atk speed marks. Over the years Iv tried other things but Iv replaced them several times with the atk speed marks. Originaly I bought them because I thought they were a good idea, a good investment. As my rune collection grew and I wanted runes for supporting, those were all I had at the time for mark runes so I used them. Now I really enjoy the small, but significant over time advantage they give in AA trades early game, and my slightly faster rune clearing than enemy supports. It saves so much time clearing wards, and allows me to move in and wind up an aa and move away before a support of similar atk speed can retaliate often.
The HP regen should be self explanatory.
I love spamming skills hard and fast. The copious amounts of mana regen allow me to "go wild" and spam a lot. Its even more valuable to me after they nerfed meditation mastery to its current state.
HP, mana sustain, and fast ward clearing and aa trading is what Hexblood is all about.
Techmaturgical Boots 9x armor marks 6x armor seals 3x scaling armor seals 9x scaling magic resist glyphs 1x armor quint 1x scaling armor quint 1x magic resist quint
Values: 18.5 armor 15.8 armor @ lvl 18 4 magic resist 27 magic resist @ lvl 18
Thems my tankin runes. The 6/3 seals split the difference on starting armor, and the 3 scalings round up to 1 armor at level 1. This means Im starting at 7 armor vs others 9 armor from runes, but I scale and by level 4 theyre even and every level past that therye scaling up. Its great to start a match with a big amount of armor on a tank sup like Leona, and rush an Iceborn gauntlet and have more armor than the enemy AD champs know what to do with at that stage of the game.
Nine Circle Hex Ring 8x magic pen marks 1x scaling AP mark 6x armor seals 3x scaling armor seals 6x scaling AP glyphs 3x scaling CDR glyphs 3x scaling CDR glyphs
Values: 20.6 AP @ lvl 18 6 armor 9 armor @ lvl 18 20% CDR @ lvl 18 7 magic pen
I pretty much made this a custom rune set for Brand, and wanted to hit 700 AP with a specific build (for which I needed about 20 extra AP) and wanted my only CDR item to have to be
. It works well enough that I use it pretty much for every "Mage" champ, and have no real regrets.
These are my top three rune pages, and I would love to hear about some other rune pages you guys customized for specific champs, or general catch all rune page for a category of champs. Runes as we know them will go away soon and this is our opportunity to preserve a soon to be lost portion of the game here in this topic.
So list your favorite rune set ups, give us the values, and bonus points if they rune page has a cool name:)
