You don't need many runes, just the good ones.

CDR/lvl is utter shit usually and doesn't bring much.

yeah I probably positioned a bit off. its been a while since I played nasus vs riven, let alone a competent one.

points I learned
1) position better

you need to tp back to lane with glacial+pots+ward

wouldn't CDR/lvl be better relative to other per level runes with the sort of reverse diminishing returns type of thing it has going on where the more CDR you have the more valuable additional CDR becomes?

thing is that early level the cdr doesnt matter as much normaly and late game its easy enough to get 40% cdr as a caster (who most often want cdr). The only real exception I know is the new Lucian because there are few good cdr items for adc so he can use scaling onces to hit 40% with Brut & boots.

once again I didnt start it, the guy is trying to give false info to a player asking for help and I dont appreciate it. iceborn is terrible and you need ignite vs riven.

yeah, making a custom page for lucian is where i got the idea that cdr/lvl runes might not be terrible even though you should almost invariably rune strictly for the early game. it can't be worse than buying an essence reaver.

dunno, I would definitely go TP in ranked 5s or something like that but in a game where my jungler never came top I felt like ignite would have helped more in fending off a tower dive/all-in. tping didn't do anything for me since I had no kill threat especially with jungler abandoning top.

I have most of them but missing armor quints and health seals. cdr/level I want for new lucian since I actually play him alot. I don't need the cdr early but I do want 40% later. health seals are absurdly expensive. took me fucking forever to get hybrid pen runes. and then I would probably need more pages too or dump one of my champ specific ones.

or maybe I should just main a lane already so I don't need all these pages qq

TP is to not fall behind if you need to back to heal/buy its not to do with kill pressure. Thats the very argument against Ignite. You have no kill pressure so what do you need ignite for? Its not going to stop him from killing you if he is able to.

ignite is huge. thats like 10% of your hp in true damage and reduces healing. it prevents him from being hyper aggressive near tower/going for a dive. tp is great when you have a jungler to defend your tower when your tp is on cd (you're going to have to back and return without tp eventually). if you don't, you're going to lose your tower regardless so tp doesn't help much. ignite scaling with levels doesn't help either so you're going to have a hard time making use of that tp as he pushes in further- if you can't stop his split push your tp is pretty much useless.

as it is soloq, I don't want to rely on a jungler if possible.


you have it right dude, take ignite. as soon as you are 6 and have glacial you have kill potential on riven

yeah but how do you find a good time to base with nasus with a riven thats really pushing you in and harassing you
im trying out cdr blues/quints for 20% cdr at level 1 seems to be pretty good. Obviously against magic damage lane you go standard setup or some really difficult lane that you need the armour quints. Not sure riven qualifies. Getting CDR increases your damage a lot too as well as your q farm rate.

getting max cdr is kind of awkward with spirit visage giving only 10% and you want mercs for boots. Even without em tabi and swiftness are both really good on him. If you want gauntlet over frozen heart it becomes a real pain. you can get cdr boots and sell them later for only 300 gold loss though.

That was the reasoning of Monte (I mean, our Monte) when jungling Nasus iirc, he wanted more CDR for more Qs and more farm without sacrificing speed in the jungle. There were a bunch of tests and tendencies though, and I don't remember what he was maxing (maybe the CDR was to be able to get a bunch of stacks while still maxing E and W, more interesting to a jungler for early game skirmishes and ganks respectively) for example.

He has a point though, Teut really needs to adjust to the fact that he no longer has a monumental elo penis to shut people up with in discussions. Unlike me.

im actually d5 again
to be fair i went from d2 to p1 duoing with marten, playing nasus didnt really cause it, just not jungling caused the drop
anyway im getting better at avoiding jungle ganks and things which were the main cause of my losses (when team is behind elsewhere and i just get ganked a lot top)

nidalee so far is the hardest lane ive encountered, but its only a counter for about 15 minutes.

I definitely don't think you need ignite versus Riven. Unless you died at level 2 or something and Riven has snowballed, she should never be able to dive you at tower. If you do get low enough to be dived, teleport will be better anyway since you can just back and teleport in again. If you're losing fights to Riven at level 12 because she has ignite, you're either really misplaying the fight or fell too far behind early (or both). Posting the replay would help.

Here's one video against Riven:
