Thank you all for the support.
I'm not going to update this guide, feel free to contact me through twitter @eslynter.

very good guide but I would like to know your opinion on which runes to choose in each game I am seeing a lot of emilia tan (boongwa) and he uses the runes in a strange way, the only thing that is clear to me is that if there are 3 or more he is always a conqueror
but my doubt is between first strike and electrocut I don't know when each one is used

Hey! Thanks for coming by. I really appreciate it :)
I like to use conqueror against melee matchups or poke ones like Yasuo/Talon or Orianna/Viktor since I have to all in to win most of the times. Conqueror is really good to survive in teamfights or 2v1 as well.
First Strike is like Electrocute and Press The Attack together in one rune, the difference is that the First Strike is a rune you can use for teamfight and trade purposes, it is also good for roaming and collecting alot of gold so you won't be behind in the match.
Electrocute is good against trade matchups and roaming, but it is poor in teamfights.
First Strike rune's effects applies in all enemies when Electrocute only applies in one target.
Go for First Strike against matchups you get alot of pressure and when you need to do alot of teamfights (since you farm gold with this rune in a unique teamfight even if you die you'll get alot of gold of it). Go for Electrocute if you don't have to worry too much about pressure and teamfight or if you're planning to do a full roaming service to your team.
I believe these are the scenarios you should consider when using runes.

Oi Lynter! Tô amando o seu guia e da pra ver o trabalho que vc colocou nele, só tenho uma pergunta que não achei nas descrições
Você faz AP pra jogos em que AP é melhor pro time e faz AD na mesma situação, mas quando é a melhor opção pra fazer build híbrida? Thankss

Oie, valeu xD
Então, a Katarina em si já dá dano híbrido, por isso ela funciona com itens híbridos da mesma forma com itens AD e AP. A melhor opção para fazer híbrido é quando você tem um campeão que você precisa fazer algum item AD pra vencer a rota contra ele, como Kassadin, mas ainda assim manter os outros itens de AP.
