Scaling MR vs flat

LolipopChelsea·Nov 6, 2015·1 votes·533 views

So we all use the Glyphs for MR, and for AD carries wouldn't it be better to run scaling MR? Since you shouldn't have to worry about an AP burst champion until around level 6-10 or in some cases earlier?

For most champions, you want that MR early, while you still have a low health pool. Yes, by end game scaling provide more, but it doesn't matter when you are out scaled damage vs defense wise during the early and mid game

Most supports are primarily AP damage, and bot laners tend to lvl slower due to sharing XP. So a lot of people in the botlane like to run flat MR glyphs.

There is also the arguement that flat or scaling, since you are a squishy ADC, neither will save you later in the game if you get caught by an AP midlaner.

You can use scaling MR if you want really, it just makes your laning a little tougher, and MIGHT not help that much later.

Thank you. I understood against supports like Annie or Sona. i actually didn't consider an AP mage at 18 like LB who doesnt care about MR.
