Is inspiration ever going to get a real 3rd keystone? Cause omni is a joke.

It is, fite me. It's something that was bullshitted into existence so they could remove kleptomancy and still have a 3rd keystone.

I forgot who, but someone mentioned a while back of making a keystone that gives you a random seed that you can plant anywhere you choose, spawning either: a Blast Cone, Honeyfruits or a Scyrer's Bloom, which would work in the intended nature of Inspiration, and also give supports a better choice if they choose to go down Inspiration.

It would create some interesting and dynamic gameplay imo, although the enemy could potentially take advantage of this as well if you plant your seed poorly.

Here is my inspiration keystone idea. You don't have a keystone but can use 5 runes from any tree, including ones from the same row.

Infinite mana? Biscuits, Manaflow, Presence of mind

Insane tank? Conditioning, Overgrowth, Revitalize, Second wind, Bone plating

Like to stack? Relentless hunter, ravenous hunter, ingenious hunter, ultimate hunter, gathering storm

I heard you like adaptive force. Zombie ward, Ghost poro, Eyeball collection, Absolute focus, Gathering storm

Gotta go fast? Celerity, Water walking, Relentless hunter, Magical Footwear, Unflinching

You are being impatient. They need at least 2 years to realize it's crap.

Yeah, you'd think that, but then you actually run it.

If your champion doesn't rely on any one keystone, but still benefits from several, it's solid.

The low rolls are real, but are limited. The only real bad roll is Fleet Footwork, since in addition to being low impact it can take a while to get rid of. The other low impact rolls are shit like Aery and Glacial, which can be cycled instantly in combat.

This basically means you need to be an auto attacker, and you need to be capable of getting 3 quick hits off for Electrocute/Phase Rush.

A Yi running at you with Predator (so he doesn't need to waste ult duration closing the gap) and then rolling Conqueror, PTA, HOB, or Lethal after he gets to you is terrifying.

A Tryndamere getting HOB in the middle of the fight means somebody gets annihilated out of nowhere (in addition to whatever he did with the keystone before HOB, and what he might do with whatever he gets immediately after).

Trist goes in with HOB, gets a reset, gets a new keystone. Rinse and repeat.

It's too unreliable for anyone's good. Ive never seen anyone in my games use it.

Klepto was cool, imo.

They should just do omnistone but you chose your keystone, and any keystone chosen is weaker or takes longer to charge the regular version.

That way you could start lane with Grasp and maybe swap to Fleet or Electrocute later but it would always be weaker than the standard one.

Riot: We dislike RNG in LoL and so we will take actions that reduce it and leave player skill to win games Also Riot: Get rng drakes and a trash rng rune on top of that and have fun

Honestly. At this point I just wish they could make a new rune system completely. Tired of seing Conqueror every single game.

So, this is slightly off topic but I only returned to the game a few months ago after a two year break. But how come Kleptomancy was removed? I'm assuming Riot must have explained it when they made the change.

I love Omnistone, it shines in adaptive play. You can’t be hard countered because you are always mixing up your strategy. Take this clip for example: https://m.imgur.com/a/YKW5mwW Omnistone both allowed me to finish off Katarina with Dark Harvest, and lock down Shyvana under my tower with Glacial Augment. Omnistone is the jack of all trades, master of none rune. Perfect for champions who aren’t reliant on a single keystone, and can balance a mixture of AA and spells, DPS and burst, and mobility and CC. Solid pick for Taric, Gnar, Orianna and plenty of others.

Next is probably gonna be a keystone where your champion swaps to a random other champion every time you ult (30 seconds CD).

Riots statement will be something along the lines that RNG is a healthy mechanic to the game in certain situations and they think that the keystone will be a great new addition to the game that lets players explore different and new ways to play the game.

Remove all keystones [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

The problem with creating Inspiration keystones is that they have to be unique so that people can't look at them and say: "That looks more like a Precision rune". Look at Spellbook. It creates a unique interaction with summoner spells. Glacial augment creates a unique interaction with active items. Omnistone Is a unique keystone in that it allows you to use almost any keystone in the game, with the downside that you don't really get to choose/control which one you get. A new Inspiration keystone will have to have something unique that changes the way you play/build and create new strategies.

Its such a joke of a keystone. Like it sounds more like a gag rune for a rotating game mode than for an option in summoners rift.

I feel like omnistone would be good on pointless champions like ivern, or maybe some supports
