Hold on, Rune pages are on sale 2 for 1 - Why wasn't this ANYWHERE ON THE LEAGUE WEBSITE OR CLIENT?

EDIT: It's posted now - under the May bundles. Thanks! Still would have liked advanced notice though, as a lot of people seem to have not had the IP ready for it.


And to clarify, by in the client I mean the main page. Obviously it has it in the store.

I just happened to look in the store and noticed a top seller was 2 rune pages for 6300 IP.

I mean, that's the sale. The 2 for 1 sale. The sale that comes once or twice per year, and is one of the best sales in the game. I have 10 rune pages, all 8 of the ones I've purchased have been from these sales.

So, why didn't I see it advertised anywhere? A little digging said a Rioter commented about it on Reddit, but seriously, come on guys! You have your own website, which I check EVERY DAY. I mean, I can understand theorycrafting and experimental content and stuff not being advertised on your site, but** in game sales should really be a news item on the front page.**

So an FYI for anyone who was waiting - rune pages are on sale, 2 for 6300 IP, right now. I'm not sure for how long.

I don't have 6300 ip because I didn't know the sale would be coming this month and I wanted to get Aussie last month. :(

I've missed 2 of these sales already because Riot tends to give either no notice or a couple day notice for things like this. Not going to have enough for this one either.

The point is to catch you entirely by surprise so when you do notice you have to spend RP on those runepages.

Dolla dolla bills y'all.

I don't get why we can't gift these... :| Why does the option to Gift Rune Pages always disappear when it goes 2 for 1.. :(

Pheron5 votes

Because runepages are not important at all and the client is busy warning you only about the really serious stuff... hey! there is a pro match happening right now!

I'm looking through the news announcements and seeing nothing at all.

Put in a support ticket. Worst case scenario they just don't do anything, but it never hurts to try.

There is no way I can make 6300 in time

Rito please, free rune pages. This is an outrage!

Needless Sewing1 votes

Whoever is supposed to be publicizing this is incompetent. I've been waiting all fucking year to buy rune pages. And don't see it anywhere. Someone should be fired. And it's not like it costs riot a goddamn thing to give us rune pages. Just cut the price in half already.

Needless Sewing1 votes

And for anyone who's crying that we don't get enough people filling or picking support in dynamic queue, well... I can't play every role if I don't have rune pages for it.

QQ... every time they do this I JUST bought something and can't get pages.

Also, what are you doing here if you quit?

HighH13 votes

He meant quit until the next game while he's in queue

Kudrov1 votes

no i meant i quit look up my history

Kudrov1 votes

i quit playing not posting on the board its not the same thing being on a board on a web page doesnt mean oyu play the game whats worng with peoples why are they being so unlogical

DorkunedAuras2 votes

*I quit playing, not posting on the boards. It's not the same thing. Being on a board on a web page doesn't mean you play the game. What's wrong with people? Why are they being so illogical?

I had to fix that grammar and spelling. It was so atrocious.

Also, boards is for people weighing in on the game, if you don't play, why are you here? What insight could you have as someone who doesn't experience the game?

Kudrov1 votes

how can you not understand simple things like someone not playing can post stuff on the board and still being revelant ? someone who doesnt experience the game what are you talking about ? you don't even know how many games of league i could possibily been playing since 2009. go back to school seriously.

DorkunedAuras2 votes

you can not weigh on the current state of the game, as you are not playing the current state of the game. You can weigh on the past state, but not the current.

And then you engage in Ad Hominum attacks, demonstrating that you've already lost and refuse to admit it.

Kudrov1 votes

ok you are being awful at agruing, you don't know much don't you ive played on the 6.10 i never mentionned where i quit so yeah i can weigh on the current state, you are just being an arrogant prick like the majority of the community.

This might be the "Mid-Season Kickoff Sale". (A term that I just made up.) Seeing it's pretty close to midseason, they might be giving us the "ranked essentials sales" that they normally give at the end or beginning of a season. So along with Rune Pages being two-for-one, IP boosts, XP boosts, and Summoner Name changes are 50% off.

Also, something to note is that they haven't made a post about the May Bundles, even though there's a page in the shop about them. I'm guessing the guy who makes the webpages (should be WizardCrab, unless that has changed) is a bit behind on schedule, but I'm sure he'll get through sometime!

Needless Sewing1 votes

Should be fired.

Oh please, they're not that greedy. They have shown in the past that they are very open about their sales. They always post the free rotation, the early sales, the bundles, the season sales, and the skin and champion sales. WizardCrab is probably just a bit behind on his work schedule.

If they were really that greedy, they wouldn't have given us a sale at all.

Alleo1 votes

The joke is that it's IP so they don't make any money off of it at all.

Needless Sewing1 votes

So why not just charge that price year round then?

You know you can refund thresh and get your ip/rp back right?

Tsen1 votes

How many of us still have refunds, honestly. I used them all on champs back in season 3. The Regrets.

(I mean as long as you don't have Thresh under your match history since you bought him, you could claim that you "accidentally" bought him and send in a support ticket, it works)

DaSarcasticGuy1 votes

Well if you used all your refunds that sucks. I'd ask for a refund since there was no announcement for this. I know I saw it on accident when going to go but Ekko and definitely glad I got the rune pages. Now I just need runes lol.

This deal is the reason I have 20 runepages despite not really needing more than 5 in practice. Every year or half year or so I've felt compelled to burn my ip on this since it's a limited time offer and I might need them eventually, but now I sit on max runepages for no reason.
