Why are there so many worthless runes that you can buy?

I mean, seriously. Who is ever going to buy and use a Greater Glyph of Attack Damage for +.28 attack damage?

Are these here as pitfalls for stupid or new players so they can waste their IP and thus be forced to play more to get more IP or, having no patience for that, caving in and buying RP.

The rune shop is cluttered with nonsense runes that no one ever uses. Riot, can you please just get rid of all the ones that are totally retarded and useless?

they are there for new players to learn the game, not for seasoned vets like us who know on new accounts you simply save all your IP till you hit 20

But even when new players reach level 20, they're probably going to buy a quint of scaling MR or a glyph of scaling mana or something like that. One of my favorites is when I see a player play the first ranked game when they have an entire rune page of critical chance. What a huge waste of IP that must have been lol. These should still exist IMO, they just need to be buffed. IMO tier 1 quints are the only things that shouldn't exist since you should never buy them since you can't even use them until when you can buy a higher tier of runes anyway.
