The only concern I have for new Rune system.

The base Armor and MR most people run in seals and glyphs. I only saw a few slots so I am a bit concerned as to what will happen.

Defensive stat boosts across champions? While a decent solution it would homogenize certain playstyles for those who like to go glass cannon in the runes. Some insight on how Riot intends to go about this will help me not have many sleepless nights.

I think the new runes will be giving people edges in some areas over others so it will balance out the more "passive" role that runes play

IDK what will happen with the runes, by my knowledge and understanding they're going away? If so, I just see the games being even shorter 20 min stumps, the game is already faster than it ever was before, now add in the fact that without runes the non 10 OP champions that people do pick will be garbage.
I would use to have Full flat Armor Q's, Seals and pretty much HP/MR in the usual spots just to survive half the time up at top against these more explosive champions that can 100-0 anyone these days.
Without runes, the scaling champions that do need more than 15 mins to actually scale will have 0 reason to be played, which in turn will/players/pros will still be on the usual 10 rinse and repeat champions until Riot literally reworks/tweaks every champion like 4-5 times within a month every month.

What was seen in the video is a Work in Progress, so it could be totally different by November when we see it. We don't even know what all of the new runes do anyway, so there is probably plans for those things in place.
