As for running them in general I'm not sure. Crits have strong psychological side effects that can give you big advantages while laning. They also can create advantageous situations which lead to kills. The biggest downside is they can sometimes screw with your attempts to last hit under a tower. | ||

You would take the crit rune, right, because because the chances of the ad rune benefiting you are so marginal? How far can you salami slice this up? There's no particular reason why another crit rune like this wouldn't be better than 0.00024 ad. How high do the values need to go before you switch to 'normal' valuation? Show your math. I'd take crit just so I could go buy lottery tickets when I procced a crit. Next question. | ||

Show your math. the argument for taking a crit rune over an ad is that not having the ad rune would not but enough to lose anything meaningful (miss a kill, not be able to trade well enough, miss last hitting breakpoints) while the crit rune will every once in a while will give you enough power to do something meaningful. you cant really math out this argument because it is all about reaching certain break points and not about what gives you the highest expected damage or most ehp or fastest clear. its not a calculable value and the only way to math it out would be to look at a bunch of sample games. | ||

The real question is how often do you hit your lane opponent? Probably not that many times. So it isnt as though the +1 ad is actually benefiting you all too terribly much compared with the possibility that you could, in fact, crit. Then you ask the follow up- how many times do you let someone get away with below 20 hitpoints? Not that often. So it isnt as though 1 ad is actually helping you in burst engages either. I mean, if we still had free crit I wouldnt advocate a crit rune. However, starting the game you cannot crit until you either a) spend money, or b) drop a rune. The trade off is CLEARLY in favor of spending a rune if you look at it that way. | ||

the reason any number of crit runes (be it 1 crit blue, or all crit quints + reds) is good is because when you DO get a crit, your opponent is required by the unwritten laws of LoL to stop laning for a second and type "/all wow real rng are you running crit runes crit more plz lol noob" and you can kill them during that time period | ||

Your looking at like 5 damage difference per skirmish. But either way, the MORE you hit your opponent, the better the chance you crit them, the more you justify the rune. | ||
