Honestly, I love the augments system, but actually implementing it into normal gameplay is probably not going to happen... Riot has a hard time just making sure no champions get forgotten about, adding this augment system to every champion in the game would not only take a long time but would be nearly impossible to balance. Trust me I do LOVE this augment system (I play Sona with all of her ult augments... its amazing) adding this system would add more depth to the game, and a way to make your playstyle more personal, but it is just far too complex for Riot to maintain... because now you not only have about 150 champions to balance but each of them have 100's of rune combinations making it impossible to help the struggling ones while also trying to nerf ones that are far too OP... I as a player would be happy if Riot were able to create AND maintain a system like this, however with a little bit of experience with software and gaming I know that they probably wont...
