Just bought two more rune pages to take advantage of the sale.
I now have 5.
An AD focused runepage with some armor, mr, and a MS quint. (Left over from my Garen games)
An AP focused page with some defense and scaling yellows and CDR glyphs
Flat armor, health, and mr as a tank build.
4 and 5 are currently blank.
I'd like some suggestions on what I can use these rune pages for. I have a rough idea but I'd like some specialization.

LostFr0st1 votesPhreak has a playlist with a bunch of pages and explanations per role for 2017. It's long but amusing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7h5pmMdTzIg&list=UUpB0IOOh0RGX8GyxlxseH4A
GigaPube1 votesamusing is right. he literally just read off the highest winrate for the few champions he selected on lolalytics. dont take his word for gospel (especially attack speed on amumu lmao) but you can use it as a basis to later on form your own opinions
LostFr0st1 votesI've been taking attspd on amumu for jungle clearing since 2014. It's actually the most efficient rune for power farming on him since his passive applies mr. It's better than magic pen reds.
GigaPube1 votesnot you too D: or anyone in general. i would take 3 AS marks but then over time he gains attack speed naturally while he doesnt gain magic pen per level, meaning its much more valuable, especially since like over 90% of your damage to champions will be magic. countless more things to say but theres probably no point
LostFr0st1 votesYup, me too lol^^ it's truly because of reading the jungle item passive tbh. ... and he does gain mpen per lvl in his passive :} I hear you though, ty for the discussion.
EndlessSorcerer1 votesPreferred roles and champions?
TyrekGoldenspear1 votesPerferred is Mid, Top, and Support.
Mid is Brand, Viktor, and Lux.
Top is Garen, Jarvan IV, and now Yorick.
Support is Leona, Taric, and Soraka.
EndlessSorcerer1 votesHonestly, I'd recommend getting as many rune pages as you can while the BOGO sale exists. The only come about rarely and the added versatility is fantastic.
While I'm not sure what exact runes you have available, I believe that the following pages would be good options.
Page 1 (Garen/Yorick/J4 Basic):
Page 2 (Mage vs AP)
Page 3 (Mage vs AD)
I find this page to be rather useful against AD champions in the mid-lane. Early armor is rather useful for surviving the laning phase (both against their damage and minions).
I prefer Scaling CDR Glyphs (and optionally one Quint) in this scenario since it lets me adjust my itemization away from CDR items. Seeker's Armguard -> Zhonya's Hourglass tends to be rather important against AD mid-laners, so I only need 10% CDR from another item (i.e. Ionian Boots, Lich Bane) to be capped out.
+ 
-> Normal BuildPage 4 (Tank Supports)
Page 5 (Specialized: Soraka)
While it probably isn't common any more, this used to be a good page for Soraka.
Flat AP Quints and Glyphs are useful for sustain in the early-game, letting you harass and trade with opponents using your Q and healing yourselves up. The regeneration provided by her Q has a 40% AP ratio (30% to 50% for allies) and her heal has a 60% ratio.
Scaling Health Regeneration Seals are rather nice for sustain throughout the game and during sieges. Even if you can't safely walk up to harass opponents with Q, you will still have a significant amount of passive regeneration.
TyrekGoldenspear1 votesThanks.
Only one question, would the first rune page example work for AD assassins like Talon?
(So when I get him in ARAM I'm fine.)
EndlessSorcerer1 votesIt would work.
I'm not sure if Lethality would be better for AD assassins but it should be a minor enough difference if you aren't frequently playing them.

Hyperiön1 votesfor AP mid, I have one:
AP/Scaling health/ CDR AP/Armor/CDR AP/MR/Armor AP/CDR/MR/Armor
GigaPube1 votes1 movespeed quint (tier 2 and 3) is about 4-5 movespeed each, so its really not worth it unless you know that you're buying swifties/mobis and gonna be aggressive. change them for at least tier 2 attack speed quint, or tier 3 if you can afford it, cos eventually over time, you will definitely be getting a tier 3 one, even if you dont play adc
tier 2 flat health seals are worth even less. better to at least get tier 2 armor. otherwise invest in scaling armor or scaling health, since you already have a lot on your quints and marks
the next best runes to get for you are 6 flat/3 scaling CDR glyphs, together they make 5 instant/5 scaling CDR = 10% CDR at level 18. or just 6 scaling and then like 3 flat or 3 scaling MR glyphs, flat AP glyphs are pretty trash unless you're banking hard on dominating lane and snowballing. also maybe tier 3 armor quints, and scaling armor, and then scaling health seals
2 for 1 page sales come up twice a year, so buy 1 more now or save up to buy it at least 2-3 times more in 6 or so months. if ever there was a time to best use RP its now, or in 6 months. champions worth 6300 are 975 RP while the page bundle is 590 i think, so its defs worth it
