Marks over quints?

The Real Dip··2 votes·307 views

So you get 13.5% attack speed from quints but you get 15.3% from marks so why don't ADC take attack speed marks? You get 8.55 AD from marks and you get 6.75 AD from quints. I think losing 1.8 Ad is worth it if you gain 1.8% attack speed. I understand that the AD would be worth more early but extra attack speed is always the way to go late game with and ADC. What do you guys think?

Such a marginal difference that it doesn't matter. The benefit to the flat AD marks is that you can use them on other pages, or that it's cheaper.

1.8 ad = 2 ad marks 1.8 % AS = 1 as mark You are incorrect, the ratios favor AS on quints and AD on marks. If you want more AS it would be better to use 3 quints and a mark with still mainly ad marks. Also on this I would like to note I watched TSM vs CLG today and TSM's jungler used your setup and lost so lol just throwing it out there.

you just get more AS from marks is what i was trying to say so why not use marks for AS. About the TSM vs CLG game someone could not run runes at all and still win so 1 game doesn't really change anything.

You can't simply compare % AS to AD. They are completely different.

Yes you can. I was comparing them in the late game on which would give more damage over all.

Junglers benefits more from AS than AD thou since they attack the camps pretty much immobile getting the best out of AS. Is not the same for a laner since you only will attack for a small period of time during a trade and you constantly will be moving around

The reason players take AD over AS for ADC's is that AD runes make last hitting creeps easier in the early game.

I get AS Marks and Lifesteal Quints.

Worked for me for a good 12+ months now.
