I hate how RNG it is. There's times where you fight in it(probably because you're forced to by another snare), or you chase through it for a kill, etc; and it does nothing at all. Literally 0 damage, no slow, nothing. And then there's times where it rapes you for 500+ damage even though you bolted to the nearest edge as soon as it dropped.

Theorycrafting combining level 1 runes:

Assumptions: You have zero tier 3 runes, you have unlimited money, and you want to have every good rune.

93 total runes
29 "good"
64 "bad"
(Your mileage may vary, I think I was pretty liberal about choosing "good" runes but I almost certainly missed something or added the wrong thing)

Odds of getting a good rune: 31.2%
Average price for a good rune if you bought it tier 3: 812.93
Average price for a bad rune if you bought it tier 3: 671.17 (not really relevant here obviously)
(cost per lvl 1 * combine number) = 15x25 = 375 total combine cost
Average Number of combines to get a good rune: 3.21
Total cost for 3.21 combines = 1201.92

Total "good" runes needed for 9 per color: 29*9=261
I have no idea how to factor the probability of 9 of the same color in the first 32 rolls

Example 1: not very good math
+ Show Spoiler +

Assuming you don't get more than 9 of the same in the first ~32 combines:
32 combines = 10 good runes, 22 bad runes
11 more combines of 2 tier 3 bad runes = 3.43 good runes, 7.57 bad runes
3 more combines = .93 good runes, 2.07 bad runes
one more combine rounds down to zero
So from the first 32 combines it costs 12,000
You gain 14.36 good runes with fuzzy math for a cost per good rune of 835.65


Example 2 assuming you don't get any duplicates in the first 52 combines:
52 combines, 16.2 good runes and 35.8 bad runes
17.9 more combines = 5.58 good runes and 12.32 bad runes
6.16 more combines = 1.92 good runes and 4.24 bad runes
2.12 more combines = .66 good runes
The first 52 combines cost 19,500
You gain 24.36 good runes with more fuzzy math costs 800.49 per rune

Slightly better math than example 1, This shows a savings of about 35.16 per rune as long as you don't get more than 9 of any "good" rune
- With an average cost of 800.49 that is a savings of 4.21%


Costs and good vs. bad according to me
+ Show Spoiler +
		        205		410		515		820		1025		2050	
totals g b g b g b g b g b g b
mark 18 0 5 5 6 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 0
seal 23 2 4 3 8 0 0 1 5 0 0 0 0
Glyph 22 1 5 4 6 0 0 1 5 0 0 0 0
quint 30 0 0 0 0 0 3 0 0 8 10 4 5
total at price 93 3 14 12 20 0 3 2 12 8 10 4 5


edit: It's 1AM here. please check my math XD
edit2: its now 2AM. this was driving me nuts so I had to do more corrections before sleep

The runes that matter are dodge yellow and mp5plvl blue (you could try flat armor as well, but nimbleness proccing is way too useful on mummy)

my masteries:
http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/mastery-tree-planner#&tree1=0-0-1-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0&tree2=0-3-0-3-3-4-0-1-2-0-0-0-0-0&tree3=0-0-3-1-4-0-0-3-2-0-0-0-0-0-0

I heard people advocating maxing all the prevent dmg skills, but SoS's imba regen outstrips the prevented damage easily. (actually now that I see it, you could probly take out those 2 points in harden skin for movespeed)

I level skills WEWEWRQ - for the late gank at 7 or if you need to help a lane faster then you could get Q at lvl 4.


I start with cloth armor + 5 hpots, at blue. Chug pots to start and never stop. Smite to finish blue - then go wolves - wraiths - golems - red (smite will be back up before red). If you're going for a gank or think you can get away with a fast dragon, back for a ruby and go to dragon/lane. Otherwise walk back to wolves and they'll respawn right as you get there, and you can hit wraiths and golems the same way before needing to b. Then you can buy HoG, a ward and more pots to watch/take dragon. If you take dragon here you should hit lvl 7.



I'm not very good, but with this setup, the jungling aspect gives me no trouble.
it's my first day

it's actually 5mp5, 1mp per sec - free dorans ring yeah

with meditation, mp5 glyphs, and blue buff, you'll just BARELY run out of mana as you kill red the first time. The blue buff helps a ton early game, and then late game when your glyphs kick in, you won't need blue again.

I'll take meditation over veteran's scar any day on any mana hero, lol. If anything it lets you ditch doran's ring sometimes and use doran's shield instead, which is a LOT more HP during laning than the 60 from scar.

That being sad even if you suck with Amumu (like i do) man his ult is a game changer.

I just massed HOG and got boots and we won i was like 2-2-21973562183521763457123

Jax.
I agree, rng is so stupid. It's the reason why I never use my dodge seals.

oh so Morgana is also dumb when you get Zhonya's and Guardian Angel.

Her ult continues to channel during the invulnerability and death and stuns at the end of the 4 seconds *facepalm*
