Inspiration tree and Biscuit Delivery on manaless champions

Altiverse··1 votes·1,274 views

My main problem with taking the Inspiration path on manaless champions is the first line of runes. Lots of champions don't use either Zhonya, Stoneplate or GA to make the zhonya rune worth it, and even less champions can make any use of Hextech Flashtraption. This leaves Biscuit Delivery as the only choice, which would be fine if not for the huge turnoff that is the loss of efficiency from the permanent mana it provides.

For champions with mana, you get a total of 160 maximum mana - making it value 224 gold. For manaless champions this component of the rune is just thrown away. So... can it give either max HP or adaptive AD/AP for manaless champions instead? (or make this change global, also for mana champions). that would make 21 HP or 1.6 AD / 2.5 AP (equivalent to current mana gold value).

Alternatively they should just swap one of the first line runes with the second line (since all of the runes in the second line can be beneficial to any champion.. excluding Magical Footwear on Cassio lol. PS Minion dematerializer is getting reworked), so every champion can make full use of Inspiration path.

the healing off biscuits is inceased from 15% missing health to 20% missing health for manaless champions, which makes them quite useful for sustain in tough matches. whats more is that you can have multiple health potions running at the same time.

like regular health potions or refillables, and biscuits.

nothing like walking with almost 950 health into lane against a pantheon or teemo with resolve/inspiration which gives access to second wind, celestial body and biscuits to sustain you through their poke until you get your first power spike and start to fight back.

While I agree it's nice, extra 5% missing HP on each biscuit isn't worth a total of 224g (plus don't forget mana champions also get 15% missing mana, making it even better).

Maybe it's just that my point of view is wrong and this rune is sleeper OP on any mana champion :)
