  • "Bomb plane doesn't care about anti-shield. Next up, we have overgrowth, revitalize, and perseverance. So, revitalize is kind of a bait rune." (01:36:37)
  • "It's better to take like more aggressive runes or like think about it this way, right? Overgrowth will usually give you in the late game like 300 HP, right? the extra 5% that you're going to get on a shield with Riven, for example, is so minimal that the extra 300 health from overgrowth is going to be a million times better, right? So, definitely go all the time instead of revitalize unless you're playing like an enchanter, but even then, a lot of the time perseverance will be the way to go because you're usually when you're playing an enchanter, you're going to be versus uh like a nless early on or a blitzcrank where perseverance will have more value. So, overgrowth. This is the best late game rune." (01:37:11)
  • "And a lot of jungles take you as like a last rune. Even if they don't go like even if they go precision, they will go for uh overgrowth at the end just because of how how much that extra HP helps. Usually you'll get 300 by late game, which means that that's two ruby crystals worth of stats, right? So that's a,000 gold worth of stats on a minor rune, which is unbelievably insane, right? like gathering storm needs like 50 AP to reach the same thing as overgrowth. So overgrowth is insanely OP in terms of gold stats. Um then you have perseverance which is really good against certain matchups, right?" (01:38:10)
  • "And of course, the 10% straighten is really, really nice. Overgrowth and grasp are enough to proc psychic projector uh for I mean you're not really going grasp on a champion that that takes psychic projector but overgrowth is a rune that people often take with psychic projector right they will go overgrowth and ro of ages and that with psych projector will be enough so yeah perseverance great against these types of champions blitz currently only against those types of supports you'll take perseverance on enchanters and of course in the baron lane against champions that CC multiple times like atroxiven it's really really And of course, you get the tenacity, too. But keep in mind, the overgrowth is really insane for the late game. So, you're kind of competing against overgrowth all the time. Next up, we have sorcery, which is the last last of the runes, shine, and then we'll be done." (01:39:30)
