Honestly, before you go screaming this is pointless or op, hear me out.

Greater Quintessence of On-Hit Damage: -Effect: Auto-Attacks deal 2 Physical Damage -Price 1025 (6 with 3)

Greater Glyph of On-Hit Damage: -Effect: Auto-Attacks deal .2 Physical Damage -Price 210 (1.8 with 9)

Greater Mark of On-Hit Damage: -Effect: Auto-Attacks deal .8 Physical Damage -Price 410 (7.2 with 9)

Greater Seal of On-Hit Damage: -Effect: Auto-Attacks deal .5 Physical Damage -Price 410 (4.5 with 9)

Total would be 19.5 compared to the 21.69 Attack damage you get from a full Attack damage page.

On Average however, most people don't build a full page of anything (except maybe the full crit Tryndamere xD) I'd say the majority of people will build the 13.2 On-Hit Damage using the Marks and Quintessences; letting the rest of the page be somewhat standard. For Ex. 3 Greater Quintessences of On-Hit Damage 9 Greater Marks of On-Hit Damage 9 Greater Glyphs of Magic Resist 9 Greater Seals of Armor

With that said, why would anyone build On-Hit damage instead of Attack Damage? Well with certain champions, e.g. KogMaw ,Jax , and maybe even Lucian, On-Hit would benefit their kits even more than AD would. Also with the introduction of the new item 3124, these runes would give these champions an even better mid game spike while hurting their early game. Also, these runes would make tower taking harder, thereby making their pushing power weaker as well. This gives them counter-play but a bigger reward mid game.

IMO the champs who would benefit most from these runes (but may not necessarily need to use them) are as follows: Ezreal Fizz Irelia Jax Kalista Kayle KogMaw Lucian MasterYi Vayne Udyr Twitch Warwick

It may be stupid, and probably won't ever see the light of day. And my numbers are probably too low or too high (most likely high). I just wanted to bring it up to see what people thought.

Thank you <3

Really cool idea, but the on hit must be higher and maybe magic damage :)

I really don't think many champions besides Kog'Maw would use these because most on hit champions have ad Ratios. For instance, Kayle and Jax have 100% ad ratios on their Qs as well as AD ratios on their Es. Actually, everyone on the list has at least one AD ratio. Since they get the bonus damage from AD runes on every auto and their abilites throughout the whole game, on hit runes would only be better after finishing item 3124 . Since it is a 3600 gold item, only Kog would probably make the trade-off.

unless its magic damage it makes less sense than just getting attack damage runes or its numbers would have to be almost double that of an ad rune with the draw back that it doesnt scale with abilities damage could have something to put on Voli bear and DR. Mundo and make the blade of the ruined king into tanky bruiser build viable again. also scaleing runes rather than flat ones
