@Riot Runes Reforged base stat adjustment concerns

I read the recent post about your plans to change the base stats of certain champions when the current stat boost runes are removed. Although I am generally fine with giving certain champions increased base stats I am afraid of what this will mean for players who play against the meta.

I am a P2 Nidalee main with 900k mastery points. I like to experiment and create multiple Nidalee builds when I play ranked because I like the champion so much. I choose a different build depending on the teams I am playing with and against.

This ranges from traditional ap, to ap support to ad and ad tank.

My AD build is what I run most of the time because I have the most success with it. With this build I take absolutely no ability power runes, and use AD reds with fervor instead.

I am worried that when Runes Reforged is introduced you will give her the flat base AP that is normally run in her most common rune page setup. This could mean that the untraditional builds I play would be no longer viable.

What can you tell me to ensure that this does not happen for me or anyone else who finds enjoyment in playing League of Legends this way.

Im feeling pretty the same, but in another way, simple as it is i play Irelia mid and top, when im top im using my runes that gives me attack speed and armor, cuz my top enemy will probably be tankier and build AD, when im mid i want to burst my low lifed, ranged, AP enemy cuz Irelia is melee, so then my runes give me AD and magic ressist, by just leveling up the stats Irelia "need" i will only use a few of theese "new" runes to get THE stats/bonuses i NEED to win the lane i am playing that specific game, and then we are back at square one where my pick of theese (new) runes is limited to what i need at my lane(was not that the first problem, that runes and masteries where limited to what i need) and then NOTHING has changed but that i get buffs instead of base stats AND buffs, customizable base stats is an essential part of the game, and then in a year, you get THE GREAT idea to make even newer runes that increase the base stats, and then we have masteries and runes AGAIN, how adorable.

I really hope the buff her AD and more importantly her attack speed as runninig those runes are so mandatory to make top lane nidalee even remotely playable
