Runes Reforged. Limited Options

Botsumi·Nov 8, 2017·3 votes·636 views

I believe Runes Reforged has limited our options as players far more than the previous system. From any lane I had the option of scaling or flat of any stat I choose. Here I feel forced into one of six paths with preset stats that cannot be adjusted what so ever. Not all players enjoy the same level one stats.

Whether you wanted a page of straight AP for your AP carry or one for hp per level, it was your choice. Whether you wanted one ad rune to help with your last hitting on an AP carry or none at all, it was still a choice.

I'm not sure I like where this season is headed.

Look at it this way;

the people who've only been playing 1-2 years have NO CHANCE against the older veterans, because who wants to spend 6 thousand IP on a handful of stat ups.

This helps balance the game by putting EVERYONE on a level playing field.

Then make all the runes free and leave everything else.

Maybe, but the old rune system was confusing, with new players not sure what to do. this new system is straightforward and simple. plus, you cant see that the enemy Vayne started with +20 Ad in the old setup.

Actually, the new system is chaotic. I recently played a match as Nasus running Dark Harvest and Demolish. At 10 min in, I could do the exact same amount of damage to tower as Rift could. Game lasted over 40 min because even though my team lost all their lanes I split top and had to get 5 man ganked every time to keep us behind. The new rune system is busted.

Em, it being overpowered or not isn't the subject. it's how well a noob can find, equip, and use the runes.

The old system was fine, it allowed you to diversify your champion and play them your way. Now you actually have a map to use the character. Its like going from Resident Evil 1 to Resident Evil 6.

And I don't care if they aren't balanced it doesn't allow me to play off meta it has me in forced meta now.

and for the record you could see exactly what the enemy started with if you bothered to click on their character and check the stats. If the runes were free you would have nothing left to complain about.

Lol? I could have 3 accounts runed out and leveled in a month... with change left over for all the cheap champs.

This patch just fucking sucks. Stop defending it.

Unless you're using an IP boost for that, you're full of it
