Scaling ad runes are too underrated.

MunchCrunchLunch·Nov 2, 2016·1 votes·1,620 views

I've been running scaling ad on every champion that I used to run flat ad on. jungle top or mid. and it just seem to be so good. I mean am not the kind of person that plays aggro early game most of the time. quints catch up at level 9 and seals catch up at level 6. so by the time am 6. the difference is negligible. on ad casters 20 extra ad goes a long way. I know people sometimes get armor pen but personally getting a black cleaver is so much better than flat armor pen nowdays even on assassins. or on someone like darius with innate armor pen they are really good. also tanks that don't buy ad late game and want some late game damage

My CS'ing is too trash early game to give up flat AD quints and marks though

I can't CS for dick when my AA damage is ~55 at level 1

I get that which is why i use it on darius that has high base ad. and can cs with his Q easily. or zed. I'd understand if your playing someone like talon

on ad carries. i'd take flat ad yeah unless am playing ezreal. then i might get scaling since csing with Q is easy and his passive makes it easy to hit a minion twice.

I go armor Pen on those champions (flat AD on ADCs because you trade a lot more early).

I think the flat armor pen scales harder. Could be mistaken but I think it's the optimal choice.

I agree that scaling runes are largely underrated if you're not playing a super aggressive laning phase though. I love running 10% Scaling CDR glyphs instead of MR glyphs or AP glyphs. So much value late game for such a small sacrifice early game.

I will lvl 2 all in you every single game if you run this shit. I don't care what champ you're playing and what champ I'm playing. Having that much less combat strength than me early game is just disrespectful.

Go ahead and fucking try it.

I run scaling ad on Darius

Disrespectful? Moron, and here you are disrespecting the scale.

There are many, many champs that can lvl 2 all in a Darius. That's one of the best times to try it, in fact. Darius isn't really online until he has all 3 of his skills while many champions can easily all in with just 2 of theirs. Jax Yasuo Cassiopeia Aatrox Fiora MonkeyKing Tryndamere Riven JarvanIV

Yasuo has a strong level 2 all in.

Jax can be dealt with or at least backed off of easily. Cassiopeia doesnt go top and she certainly has no all in power at level 2 depending on darius summs. Tryndamere is dependent on his conditional slow and rng, otherwise he gets fucked. Aatrox has a shit tier level 2 allin, he'll burn his passive and then darius can either run or stick around for follow up. Wukong is weak into darius. Fiora has an ok level 2. Riven needs her stun and shield dash, she beats on darius hard at level 3 onward, not 2. Jarvan should almost never beat darius in an allin, his lane is about q poking and avoiding darius q.

Bye.
