tl;dr:

- I think it's important to have some early game value and power from your runes because that's when you don't have gold for items (for which you unintentionally agreed) and since the enemy laner will likely have those flat stats which allow them to start with an advantage in lane

- You disagree and believe that it's fine to run something like 10 scaling runes including Mpen quints (despite every pro and most players with common sense running AP quints) which are late game orientated because you believe that Vel'koz is a "safe champ" so reaching late shouldn't be a problem

If you cut out all the bullshit about how powerful CDR would be if you could hit 100% CDR and the passive (or nonpassive) aggressiveness, that's what we're left with.

It's really not all that complicated: you do you, I'll do me.

The only reason I brought up rank was because I was just wondering if you actually play the game or do you just theorycraft? Because, sure scaling runes are great if you can reach late game with the handicap but there's a rhyme and a reason why for instance ADCs don't run scaling AD reds despite getting 2.43 AD for one scaling AD red vs 0.95 AD for one flat red (that's 21.87 AD vs 8.55 AD for a full set if anyone's counting).

So, care to share your account details or rank so I can see how your theorycrafting actually panned out?
