@ringthree and others: I just got my account to 20 and it cost me around 15300 for 2 full rune pages
x9 Flat AD marks, x9 Magic Pen marks, x9 Flat Armor seals, x9 Mag Res/level glyphs, x3 Flat AD quints, x3, Flat AP quints
Its hard imo to justify buying much else if you play multiple roles and dont buy a rune page bundle. My main account has 10 rune pages, but this account probably won't have that sort of variety.

**Thunder** · 2012-07-19 15:05

I only use the 3 main rune pages you get from default and I'll switch them up if I'm playing a champion that requires something funky.

Whenever I que up I know what kind of champ I want and 1-2 pages will usually cover that. I usually always have one good for singed(favorite) just incase and a typical AD bruiser page

I do want a gold/5 page though.. gotta start saving.

By the way, if you're new I'd recommend spending all of your IP on runes and only play free champs until you've played one you like and THEN buy it. I think I've had this user over a year and I've got a shitton of runes but only 8(?) champions bought. Everyone has only a few "usuals" anyway. Better to just find some negroes you like and keep using them, I think. Graves is a good start

**Nitsuki** · 2012-07-19 15:15

I have about 12 champs bought from IP mostly, but out of the 12, i use 6 (tristana, varus, jax, vayne, malphite, darius), and my 3 rune pages cover my 6 champs easy.

I stopped using corki (free from ufo skin, forgot how i got it), alistar (free from youtube subscription), tryndamere (got too boring for me), sivir, yi, ashe.

**Conrad** · 2012-07-19 15:19

The only RP I've ever bought (and I've been playing for a year) went immediately to a 7 page rune set. I have (I think) 29 champs and a bunch of runes, bought solely with IP.

No reason to get runes at all until you're level 20. Alistar & Tristana are free, there are a handful of 450 IP champs that give you access to every role in the game, and then you get up to 10 new champs each week to try out. I wouldn't suggest buying champions until you have sufficient experience with them, or you're at the point where you have nothing else to spend your IP on.

Note that once you start doing draft mode (normal or ranked), it behooves you to purchase some of the more popular or banned champions to grab them as the first pick or have them available to trade with your teammates. It's the only reason I bought Mundo or Shen.

**Thunder** · 2012-07-19 19:43

Alistar and tristina are free?

I know kayle is but that's only to the people who have had accounts during their little giveaway. Don't think new people get those guys for free

Oh, and sometimes you can buy a champion based soley on how they play. I bought nidalee because I wanted another bruiser and it worked great. Irelia same thing. If you like graves I can see you also enjoying guys like ashe, trist, fuck why can't i remember more ad carries, kog, vayne

I don't have the links, but they were free through some social media thing. One of them was liking Riot or LoL's facebook page or something to that effect.

**Thunder** · 2012-07-19 19:52

Oh yeah.. I remember trist, that's the facebook one

Edit: subscribbing to riot games on youtube gets you alistar. Cool.

hi anyone want to play games im bored and daak is off being daak somewhere like an anus

**pugnax179** · 2012-07-20 00:48

and mordekaiser es numero uno in regards to the south american players

**Zanz L. Barre The 3rd** · 2012-07-20 00:52

Why don't people play Ashe more? Are kill lanes the flavor of the month these days? Rush PD with MS quints with AoE slow has been working insanely well.

**Pabst** · 2012-07-20 01:05

Pulsefire ezreal....

I like Ashes, she is usually my go to AD carry. Also a good Ashe is such a pain. But I been trying to learn ezreal. Most games I play there is usually an Ez, Graves, Varus, or Ashe.

**Qeomash** · 2012-07-20 01:19

Ez is definitely my favorite champion. He needs a good team behind him though (or, in front of him). Squishier than any other ranged DPS, but can dish out roughly the same (maybe a bit less) than most others.

But that's not why I play him. No feeling is better than blind kills from across the map.

**ringthree** · 2012-07-20 08:21

I just got the free Alistar, but the Tristana looks like a skin, I don't know if it gives you a free Tristana yet. I will check when I get home.

**Conrad** · 2012-07-20 08:25

It does give you a free Tristana as well as the skin. You got a skin from Alistar, too.

**Nitsuki** · 2012-07-20 08:34

it gives you a free tristana as well.

I honestly thought the south american favorites were Yi, Akali, and Mord. Those are like almost guaranteed that you got a south american nowadays.

**ringthree** · 2012-07-20 08:40

They love Yi. It's so hit and miss. If the dive and die twice, they are pretty much useless for the rest of the game.

Why are they so bad? It doesn't make sense.

Also, thanks for the info on the free champs.

**Cleverness** · 2012-07-20 09:56

Because in Brazil you go hard or go home. And First Blood opportunities makes people do stupid things in this game

**Conrad** · 2012-07-20 10:11

not playing for kills is something that I got beat into my head very early. gold production is important but you shouldn't focus kills. get good at last-hitting minions and get the kills when the opportunities arise.
