Scaling vs Flat Runes: What you need to know

Everyone is always asking me about my rune pages and how to know what to do with each rune, so I'm posting this to help some people with it. If you want more help with runes, let me know.

When does Scaling beat Flat Runes?

  1. Assassins

On all the assassin champions your not going all in until you have your ultimate at level 6 anyways, so if the Scaling runes catch up with the Flat runes by then, WHY NOT TAKE SCALING. Your receiving free stats.

  1. Playstyle

If your a super passive lane opponent, and don't go aggressive until you have a big ticket item, you'll probably be a 6-8 by then. Probably don't need the flat stats at level one if your staying safe and not going hyper aggressive

  1. Your matchup

If your going against a champion that doesn't deal damage early, why not get scaling? By the time they deal damage you'll have scaled up to the flat stats and be receiving free stats once again.

This link at the bottom is all the scaling runes compared to the normal runes, reflecting what level you need to reach for scaling runes to catch up with the flat runes.

Wrong. You try to rush level 2 before them and all in right as you hit it so you have a huge ability boost plus the levelled up stats over them. If you get a kill you snowball out of control. If not you'll still have done significant damage to zone them to get CS advantage, force a B or setup for easier gank kill.
