Great Mark of Mights + Life Steal runes = Mini...

[quote=sakil7395]The mark of mights are 0.13 per level and 2.43 per level at level 18. 0.13 * 9 = 1.17 2.43 * 9 = 21.87 Plus the 9% life steal from runes and masteries. Assuming that you do get to level 18 you would have a big advantage. Wouldn't this be a great choice of runes for ad carries Thoughts?[/quote]

[quote=Phoenix0000ff]AD marks scale better than ArP marks if you get a [[last whisper]] Only problem that comes to mind is last hitting and early damage vs players[/quote]

[quote=Jebus McAzn]Blydden: Most people have actually been using full AD marks and quints recently with the new masteries since the armor pen mastery is percentage based. There's no need to invest as heavily into ArP marks any more since I believe the AD marks actually end up contributing more damage once you take the masteries into account. I did, however, hear Doublelift on stream talking about theorycrafting involving lifesteal quints. He said if you go scaling AD red and take lifesteal quints and start with a Vamp Scepter, you should IN THEORY have a very strong early game although he's tried it in practice and it doesn't work as well as he planned. Still, on most champs that get an early BT I'd rather just farm it up and stomp the match without having to worry about gimping myself early game.[/quote]

[quote=Joobieo#41288]Jebus's last line sums it up for me as well. Farm farm farm then fight. Rather than fight, farm, fight.[/quote]

[/quote] The whole "flat AD marks dealing more damage" argument is false. Outside of a best-case scenario at level 1, you are typically dealing LESS damage to players throughout the entire game (even once you have [[Last Whisper]]). I'm not AS sure about AD/lvl marks, but they are definitely going to deal less damage throughout early/mid-game which could greatly reduce the effectiveness of your late-game power.[/quote]

[quote=DuffTime]Just like every other flavor rune and mastery choice accompanied with words like "Best" and/or "Meta," there is a time and a place for everything, and this just happens to be the newest most popular method of the month :P[/quote]
