People say Conqueror is the weakest rune

The problem with Conqueror is that it does not serve its intended purpose and it's the most abusive rune. It only allows those who can abuse it well to be viable and removes the point of getting bruisers to be viable. It's a split-pushing rune with little interaction.

Riot keeps saying "we want interaction, we want interaction".

Then what's the hesitation on Fervor? It REQUIRES you to constantly engage with a champion for extended trades to get its full potential. Conqueror requires you to be useless and AFK or being in the lead for 4 seconds before working.

It's weak because it's a rune that isn't useful for most people while also too abusive on a few select champions. It's toxic in design. It should be removed as a whole and just replaced with a reiteration of Fervor.

I have yet to see anyone stating Conqueror is weak, the boards is filled with threads at the top that want True Damage reduced in the game firstly by removing conqueror because the true damage is a lot when combined with Infinity Edge as their thread's descriptions state.

There's a minority stating that it is weak which I am targeting.

Where did I say the Boards?

Cuz the boards are full of R word players who have no idea what they are actually talking about. Conq cannot be removed or nerfed massively until tanks are massively nerfed.

Conq is only busted on two-three champs and fulfills its purpose on every other champ by helping them being relevant against tanks in the mid-lategame. Conq is a bandaid fix nothing more nothing less.

The one abusing it the most is yasuo. Nerf him and be done with it. His hotfix buffs were certainly too much. Trynd, idk where he stands rn actually but i would remove him from the game either way until his passive got reworked. And that's pretty much it. Darius is kinda good with it but that's it.

Aaaand that's it already.

I've said it multiple times: Gut the AD gain on it. Make it a situational rune so that it's harder to abuse.
