I'm just using him as an example. He's the only champ I can think of with a ranged snare. :P

^haha

I use them on quite a few champions...it just depends on what mastery set-up I'm using.

If I'm using a 9-0-21 set I don't usually need them, but when I'm using a 9-21-0 or 0-21-9 set they make themselves useful.

I use them on any mana using hero. The early game regen is so very important. However I could see some Utility tree users no longer needing them with the improved mastery tree setup... because formerly I NEVER used the mana regen mastery... so I could see that being used instead of runes. But I still like the runes (namely because I don't have enough runepages and too poor to buy more).
Did I manage to assist you in any way? Hook me up by hitting that nifty +Rep button.

All guides have been archived due to my not being able to play LoL currently. The information is still there and is good but until I return they will be archived. I am able to keep them updated and current though.

@People *****ing that I forgot X champ.

Maokai's snare will not help him get away unless he has absurd MS.
Lux/Morg have "unreliable" snares. Ryze has point-and-click snare that will never fail.

Only hero i use mana regen runes on is veigar.

Quite easy to control your mana with only Mana regen mastery.


Silly Veigar, being forced to spam a high mana cost spell in order to be able to nuke people down in late game.

Flat regen runes gives me 3 mp5. It wins that 1v1 early which gives you the advantage later into the lane stage.

Also flat mp5 + dorans ring = never stop harrasing.

I've been switching back to my flats more recently as well, after level 6 I stop really having mana problems so its been seeming sensible to switch back.

Although I use Mana Regen on quite a few champs, but been cutting down.
