Why is Riot buffing lots of damage runes?

Inspiration runes (i.e., utility runes) are becoming the standard pick for secondary runes because of how much value they provide. They want people to take other things than Inspiration secondary because free boots and biscuits are non-interactive.

They're not buffing damage runes specifically, they're just buffing non-Inspiration minor runes across the board while nerfing Magical Footwear, and it just so happens that most non-Inspiration runes are damage runes, lmao.

Bone Plating, Conditioning, Celerity, Taste of Blood, Ultimate Hunter, and Relentless Hunter are also getting buffed.

Celerity is still shit tho, and in no way competes with the new buff to Transcendence.
