Magic pen reds are really good and considering ad's go flat mr they are the best for that slot and pretty much the only way you can get that stat.Yellows are for armor,blue flat mr and quints are either flat health or gold.As far as I can tell eu prefers flat health.Chauster and Xspecial run gold runes on almost anything.


I've found that armor reds are fun just because no one expects you to take as little damage as you do so you can just ignore all the AD's harass. Especially as someone like Leona, you just ignore attacks and zone all day.

Were talking about sona,leona is a different story.

What? Armor reds are pretty standard for supports. They are pretty reasonable for efficiency at 0.9 armor per rune (8 armor to fill with)
Any 21 (ingame - 20.9 on lolking) armor runepage you see on chauster/xpecial/whoever is running armor marks.

Were talking about sona here lol,unless I'm missing something.


Edit: Eh, redacted. Point already addressed.

Scaling is highly subjectively a situational because it changes based on teamcomps . You don't see teams say "Oh we're going lategame let's pick jax" because jax isn't actually good lategame if he can get kited or poked down while malphite say would rape that kind of team.

I think gosu pepper does something either batshit crazy or something else batshit crazy, dem russians dude.

Like either its full AP page or full defensive page with defensive runes.
I think I heard that he runs flat hp quints as well from deman or something.

And chalice is just insanely good on sona because if you're not the one buying aegis you have no other way of buying MR anyway and often aps hell even the other support can burst you in fights which means the mr and mana regen end up both bbeing awesome and it's much easier to afford the 890 gold in small parts than "full" items.

Either should work,the point is offensive red marks work best on sona who doesn't need that much armor,armor yellows are enough.She want's to bully people as much as possible.

It really depends on your endgame goals. If you're talking about a vacuum (like strictcly 1v1), there's probably not that many that scale with Irelia into lategame, but if you're talking about a 5v5, there are plenty of champs that scale harder than Irelia in lategame, if given sufficient teamcomp. Yorick/Kayle ulti's allow them to scale very strongly into lategame, Nunu's bloodboil buff makes him more relevant in lategame than Irelia, (not to mention his giant AOE slow, that prevents Irelia from shitting all over your ADC. Vlad's ulti lets him scale way harder than Irelia in late game. Get where I'm going with this?

Malphite. He can lose the lane hard but there is no stopping him in lategame, he will always be a huge factor in any teamfights, even when he is behind in gold.

Then again, he gets banned a lot.

graves vs blitz is in no way a counterpick. in fact you can argue that graves is one of the worst ADs that blitz could possibly grab with his slightly higher resists + higher damage from melee range.

Nasus is absolutely terrifying lategame assuming:
a) You don't get kited once you pop your ult and go MANMODE
b) You farm up a shit ton of cs on Q

He actually does really well against her in lane as well, in that he can farm nicely without worrying about being harassed out of lane.

There are 2 situations:
1. If you can't win a direct trade, for example when the opponent is far ahead in items then just hug the tower and learn to lasthit under tower while hoping for your Jungler to help.
2. If you could win the direct trade but can't because of one opposing skill then bait that skill, dodge it and then go all-out on their AD.

In the case of Blitzcrank, if he misses a grab, just go for it. He's useless the next 10-15 seconds so you can just go for their AD and punish the hell out of him. If you then get grabbed by blitz you say "thanks for the gapcloser" and finish off their AD. Brush vision is vital, if you can see him then his grabs are a lot easier to dodge, so have your support ward the bushes whenever it is safe to.

Or just get Taric, Alistar or Leona as support and laugh whenever they grab someone.

As if you can expect people in solo queue to spread out. You would not believe how OP Mummy and Sona are at my ELO, because people stand inches away from one another and don't think to scatter when the very obvious tell of "AOE INITIATION NOW" is coming.

Lots of funny moments can be had with such situations.

I remember a team that thought it's a good idea to stand in the small bush near baron without oracles against Malphite/Zyra. They all died in 2 seconds.
I stood in the bush next to it, facepalming.

Yes, doublelift and capt jack can't flash out of malphite ults but most people aren't doublelift or capt jack. It just takes a second of being in the wrong position and suddenly hell breaks lose. He's also one of the best at making AD carrys weep with his sticking power and incredible armor, especially pre-LW.
