EDIT: It would appear that you can also run 5 armor pen marks, 4 flat ad marks and 1 flat ad glyph to have the same bonus ad as the 4 percent lifesteal page. (You still run flat ad quints) Noone would know you were running armor pen and not lifesteal, unless they looked you up.

As Season 4 is picking up speed, I am predicting 6 armor penetration reds, 3 flat ad reds and flat ad quints to become the standard for ad carries once again. These runes were seen as optimal at certain points in time and indeed, it was not uncommon for certain players to run armor pen reds AND quints. As we... Read More

We all know what it feels like to be in a promotion series, and we all know what it feels like to be demoted, but I'm here to tell you why none of that matters.

As you are playing league of legends, obviously your mmr is going to go up and down and not be displayed to you.
In the long run your promotion series won't matter very much because if your mmr goes up and you continue to lose promotion series, you could potentially raise your mmr so high that it skips the 4th or 2nd division altogether.

Not only this, but if you continually lose your series and continue to have decent mmr,... Read More

EDIT: I made this into a Complete Guide for Vayne: http://www.lolking.net/guides/241152

The champion Vayne has been hotly contested in the past. At a certain point, we saw a change from riot to make it so that Vayne's auto attack primed before casting her E, would no longer go off as the target is being moved away. This did two things. It nerfed Vayne's trading in lane significantly and it slowed down her best combo of Ult + q, attack, wall stun, attack. It took some time to get used to this change, but most Vayne players were still playing her a lot after this and abusing the game... Read More

Today, I would like to touch on a controversial subject, that is viewed differently by different people. There seems to be a common misunderstanding about champion picks in relation to the meta, and why you pick what champion when. This can lead to arguments, often in lower elo, about picking a certain champion versus another. You may even see very low rated players offering advice, so as to say something like,"What? Why would you pick lux against zed?" or "I always win lane as X champion vs Y champion."

Now, I am not going to specifically say that counter-picks... Read More
