I doubt Riot is going to do anything about runes. I mean, they already had to shelve the Lee Sin rework because of the sheer whining at Reddit. Imagine the shitstorm that would ensue if people suddendly learned that their runes and pages they paid for are going to be erased. Even if they refunded, people are extremely anti-change.

I think Riot is working on a "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" policy with runes. They probably know they're a problem, but since people kinda take runes for granted and don't complain about them, they're not going to make any significant changes.
