Purchasing Runes

[quote=ScionOfHRH]Been playing LoL for just a couple weeks now and I'm loving it! :) I don't know how fast others tend to level up or "master", but I've felt that I've been doing pretty well for myself. I have a nice sum of IP built up and have found my champion of choice, Wukong. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna stick with him for a long while. When I ask my friends who are of higher level what I should do with my IP they say to save it ALL until level 30 when I can get the best runes. My question is: doesn't it seem more logical to purchase runes as I level up to stay with/exceed the curve? That way - in theory - I will win more matches and gain more experience/IP wealth/reputation. What are your thoughts?[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf]Most people will tell you this: Runes are a waste of IP until level 20. Once you get there, you can buy the "best" runes. I agree with this and I wish I had done it as well.[/quote]

[quote=ScionOfHRH]Thank you for your input, Lugignaf! :)[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000]You can get the best runes at 20, not 30, and yes it is best not to buy any until then (IMO).[/quote]
