4% movement speed isnt too much, considering you could get the same bonus from the old runes.

i dont care much about the ad/ap portion of the rune (though theyre nice to have). if there is a problem with this rune, then reduce the ad/ap bonus pls. or cap it out.

though i wonder. is the rune really too strong, or is it just that the alternatives in that row arent very compelling?

10% cdr is nice, but lvl 10 takes a while and not everyone needs the extra cdr so desperately.

absolute focus is garbage on most champions honestly. at the very least its not very compelling to potentially lose part of your combat stats after taking a bit of damage. its literally only useful for a hand full of champions who are specialized to poke their enemies from 2 screens away and are unlikely to take damage.

this makes celerity probably the most generalistic choice in that row. nerfing it wont really change much about that.

It's a needed nerf, free 4% is a good amount. On an ADC at level 1 it gives +14 movement speed, that's quite a bit. With this change down to 3% its 10 movement speed. It won't kill the rune dw.

most melee champions and especially fighters have higher base movement speed than adc.

so yea, nerfing the ms bonus on the rune ends up more of a nerf for fighters. didnt they say they wanted to buff bruisers?

This can't be seen as a class nerf because its player preference. It's by no means mandatory to run Sorcery on every single rune page, thus this runes nerf is a general all champions nerf. And its just 1% anyways, we still get the same AD/AP from it.

to be clear. it means it nerfs the rune for fighters more than for marksmen.

its not a nerf to the whole fighter class, but it is effectively a nerf to the fighters who picked up the rune. more of a nerf than to other champions who pick up the rune.
